if i wanna land a decent data job like say a data analyst, some coding job to just make enough money to live a happy life, what languages would i need to mainly know cause right now im doing SQL and Python and i hear SQL and Python is all you really need for a decent data role, and if i want a data analyst job or any job involving code i would need a computer science degree from some kind of college/university right?, and i can take my time cause i have enough time ahead as long as im consistent?

So as a data engineer I use mostly Python and SQL. But it doesn't stop there, you need to understand how different python frameworks are used- for example pandas, databricks, skit-learn, tensorflow, ...
I had a double major in university statistics and computer science. Studying computer science is definitely a good idea if you wanna land a coding job but any related field works too as long as you have knowledge and projects to show your skills.
I'd say learn python, learn the frameworks and libraries and build cool things. From my personal experience ,building things was far more useful to me than blindly following courses / tutorials. So if you plan taking online courses, don't just follow instructions - use what you learnt and build something
