You don’t (generally) need math for programming. That much is true. There is some specialized knowledge that you need for a few areas (ML, graphics) but you can pick it up as you go.

And yet, I want to talk about my love for math. What it means to me, and where it’s coming from.
When I say “love for math,” a stereotypical image pops into my head. That of a student who’s great at solving examples in the textbooks, someone who reads complex formulas without batting an eye, someone who knows how to solve problems using math. That person is not me.
Math in high school (and in many university courses) is often taught as means to an end. As a set of techniques you can apply to answer practical questions. How to solve an equation? How to calculate the area of a surface? How to describe a physical process? Step 1, 2, 3, done.

can i pay google to never show me another AMP page? please?
like, i get it, many people find it useful, that’s cool. all i’m asking for is per-user opt out. is that really so difficult? AMP wastes my time because i always end up requesting the normal version anyway. wtf Google why can’t you just add an opt-out. it sucks
i don’t care about it for any ideological or big company reasons or “open web”. it just feels broken. it’s annoying like a faulty lightswitch or leaking boots or shaking table. it takes a medium that’s already shitty at usability (mobile web) and somehow makes it worse in my exp.

It’s ok. You don’t have to “defend” $technology. Sometimes it’s just a matter of taste.
I mean the aesthetic part. There’s a saying, “what’s good for a German is death to a Russian.” I don’t think it goes quite as extreme but what’s cute to some can make my eyes bleed and vice versa. That’s ok.
Then there’s also the model and which problems it solves. But who wants to talk about that 😛 Not me.

This thread is my translation of the Christmas Song by Boris Grebenshikov. More about this translation project (and an index of my other translations) in the linked thread!
Boris Grebenshikov
To start off, I’d recommend listening to the song itself to get the mood. There are two versions that I think are interesting.
1) This is a recording from the 1984 live album which is considered canonical: aquarium.lipetsk.ru/MESTA/mp3/1984…. At the time, they weren’t allowed to play shows so they would play at friends’ places, and someone recorded it on a tape. The quality is crap but that makes it more visceral.
