For long-term use: both a tight as I can so I barely can unscrew them later because why not.
Programming is Concrete Math and becomes more and more Math the less abstraction you expose yourself to.
Both are fields you have to engage in problem solving, the better you are in one, the better you are in the other.
Don’t confuse Math with pure arithmetic operations though, its just the base concept which provides the fundament you’re building upon as you dig deeper.
I for example was quite bad at Math up until I got interested in IT, because then I had a reason for learning and be excited about it, but I guess thats a heavily subjective thing.
Engaging with interpreted languages and solving problems on certain sites with those also helped in further developing my problem-solving skills, which made Math easier for me.
