I feel you. I'm one of those those that jumped from Biochemistry to programming. I remember the day in 2012 I wanted to switch to CS while in my second year of varsity and the head of that department looked me in the eye and straight up told me she had no space - despite the painfully obvious lack of queues and scores of empty chairs.
But alas, I've spent 6-7 years learning and grinding, I wanted to be a proper web developer. Just this morning I read another post discussion about RISC-V and ARM architectures and thought to myself - I'm still an idiot. I have no idea what these guys are talking about. I still feel like an impostor. I've helped my company deliver some awesome products and get paid really well but theres is still too much I don't know.
Now Im in charge of training new devs, freshly minted CS grads and they can barely write readable code. I'm still jealous that they have a CS degree which can open many more doors.
