Mentioning Discrete Math brought back some memories. I always felt it was unnecessary until a project required me to use math. It was trivial, high school level math but regardless, sometimes that's all it takes for the arrogant student to realize Discrete Math has its merits.

I can't offer any valuable expert advice since most of my programming skills involve stitching existing tools together with very little in the way of actual programming. Sometimes though I fall into a project that makes me genuinely passionate about programming and all my self doubts are erased.

From one cargo cult programmer to another, good luck.
