I've always had excellent model building functionality for abstractions and got the "physics" of a subject rather quickly, be it economics, biology, certain mathematical subjects and more.
Then, I met software and computer science abstractions, they all seemed so arbitrary to me, I often didn't even understand what the recipe was supposed to cook. And though I have gotten better over time (and can now write good solutions in certain domains), to this day I did not develop a "physics" level understanding of software or computer science.
It feels really strange and messes with your sense of intelligence. Wondering if anyone here has a similar experience and was able to resolve it.
