It's difficult to overstate the importance of education. I went back to school at 32 with very little formal education. It was tough but having graduated after ten years I never regretted it. I'm doing a job that I love and have more employment options. Whether or not you go back depends on many factors, especially if it is a serious investment in time and money. I didn't like my work and that was what motivated me but I had savings and no debt or responsibilities.

Maths is the cornerstone of engineering and science. It's probably one of the most versatile skills. Add physics and you have a control/electrical engineer. Add computer science and you have a programmer. Add economics and you have an equity trader. Maths alone has huge scope in research.

Skating dangerously close to the naturalistic fallacy with your stupid comment. Ecological changes from any source could be catastrophic for life on earth, people are not a necessary precondition.
Maybe we could attract it with an OnlyFans subscription.
I suppose it depends what the program is for. If it's UX then probably not a lot of use to know advanced maths. I was thinking about the process of creating mathematical models of physical systems and embedding them in an ECU or creating encryption schemes or deriving models from large datasets. Maths trains us to think logically. Computers are fundamentally logical and must strictly obey mathematical rules if we want answers.
