Where in life is mathematics not applied?

1. It depends on what counts as life.

   I'm reading Stanislas Dean's book “How We Learn”right now. The author is a professional neuroscientist with a first degree in mathematics.

   He writes that the human brain has innate structures that are responsible for recognizing quantities and simple geometric shapes. (Dean justifies this, but I won't be here.) While learning, our brain constantly evaluates the probabilities: whether this or that action will lead to success or not.

   Our brain constantly makes estimates of quantities and quantities even at the pre-conscious stages of thinking. We just don't realize it.

2. Hello.

   Math doesn't apply:

   1. in love, friendship;
   2. in writing a book, painting a picture, in cosplay;
   3. in communication, (if only you hang out in a math environment).

   Yes, in many ways, everything is not listed.
