Whatever Happened to Wolfram Alpha?
you might want to try units(1).
https://www.gnu.org/software/units/units.html
the input language is less flexible than wolframalpha/google, but i quickly got used to it. it's nice to have something local and reliable. you can also define custom units.
i prefer using it in terse mode:
$ units -t 0.03$/hr*1month -
Rates - currency rates in your terminal
Yes, units must not be used for currencies, it relies on hardcoded conversion rates. The latest version uses prices from FloatRates (2020-11-15) for most currencies and services.packetizer.com/btc for bitcoin. So while units is very very good for units conversion, it's no good for currencies unless you don't need more than a crude rule of thumb.

What is the main and most important skill (soft/hard) you consider every developer should learn early in his career to be successful in the industry?
Systematic debugging. Some people think it's too stupid to even mention because surely everyone just naturally and fundamentally understands that this is how you solve problems with code, but apparently not everyone: https://danluu.com/teach-debugging/
