I'm currently waiting to see what comes back from fsck on a 4TB drive connected to a Raspberry Pi (don't ask). Drive is 390 days old according to SMART and reporting unrecoverable read errors.
Most of the stuff was in other locations but I know there was one repo I was waiting to push... waited too long, I guess.
I always have #6 on my list and I always put it off. /sad
My current job has me messing around with linear algebra and statistical analysis on occasion, though I've found the cobwebs in that part of my brain are rather thick :)

It helped to have a purpose or something to accompany it, e.g making a game as that would require a bit more math than CRUD apps. This helped me brush up on some (embarrassingly simple) vector math http://natureofcode.com

I would put stay healthy and invest in your health (chair, standing desk, exercise, food) as the #1 for any programmer for next year, and the years after. It's all too easy for us to forget about the long lasting effects of sitting in front of a computer that are hard to later undo.

It was great when I was working aeronautics as the modeling and simulation required a thorough review of theories and concepts. These days, I'm lucky to do more math than built in excel functions... Again, /sad.

It's a bit like learning a language, you'd need some almost immediate application to make it past the first steps of a book or course (and/or make that gained knowledge stick). And while it's easy enough to travel to some country where they speak a language you just learned, that's often harder when it comes to mathematics and IT. 3D maths and game development worked out somewhat in the past (I forgot most of it thou…
I'd love it if people had suggestions for other engaging ways to apply math while programming!

Save by not investing in standing desk.
