Ask HN: Can I use TensorFlow without knowing even Elementary Algebra?

I'm fascinated by Machine Learning World of possibilities, But whenever I want to start studying the topic, I always hit a wall with the Math prerequisites. E.G: Probability, Linear Algebra, Etc.

I've been been programming for a while without understanding of Turing Machines and/or Lambda Calculus.

Do you think it is feasible at all that someone could use a library like TensorFlow and do some meaninful programs without knowing the Math I've just mentioned.

Thanks!
