There's often a skill that seem interesting, but I can't see doing anything for me in my day-to-day life. What have you learned that was a lot more effort than the payoff was worth?

EE here and the math was hard. Barely touch any of it now, but I miss it and I wish it was more practical. Maybe it was in training me to be very precise and methodical.

But in solid state physics, having the math to follow and understand maxwells equations, e=mc^2, and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. Priceless.
