It’s a really great and inspiring article as I’m thinking of taking a Maths course myself. After being a straight A student in school, I graduated a Linguistic department and here I am thinking I can barely add sufficient sums in my head. I guess the disadvantage of Not knowing Maths is different thinking from tech guys who I need to communicate a lot to. The thing that can cross the bridge of misunderstanding should be Math thinking. So thank you for a kick to get the ball rolling.

Basic arithmetic isn't math in this context, sitting through a multivariate calculus MOOC isn't going to help you with addition.
