Earlier quoted context omitted.
Who are you to say that this doesn't matter for someone's development? This thread reads like you're trying to convince yourself that you don't need to understand this stuff.
I've taken quite a lot of university math courses. Not much is helpful for what I do in my development. In fact, not even the algorithms courses I've taken are all that helpful since most of the hard stuff is already done for you in libraries/frameworks.
What I pointed out above is that there are people who do this stuff in their development. (-:
It seems like we're caught in this cycle where every 2 or 3 years, a new framework comes out that everybody rushes to embrace. Someone is writing the code to build these frameworks, and I guarantee you someone had to worry about what made their algorithm O(n^2) instead of O(log(n))
I think the reason you're being downvoted though, isn't because you simply pointed out that some people don't need to know this stuff, because (although somewhat pointless to state), that's true. Rather, I think the problem was when you said
Mathematics gets way more attention than it deserves in computing
Because you made no attempt to back it up, producing only evidence of your particular situation.
