Liked the tone of your post. Did not detect any bitterness. Does your mathematical background serve a use in your current career, which I assume is as a dev of some sort since you are on Hacker News?

Thanks. Dev: yes; maths useful: not so much, except I guess in the broader "mental training" sense.
