Never understood how some people boil down everything to raw talent that you're born with...

I mean, sure, people have different cognitive abilities, different strengths and weaknesses, etc (like a DnD Campaign, lol)

and I can understand how people can conclude that someone is a very "talented" musician or artist because humans have been around for a long time and us humans have been into music and art for a long time...

but here's the kicker, computers have been around for less than a 100 years or so,
so how the heck can someone be a "talented" computer programmer?

no, they are SKILLED because they worked their @ss off to get good.

No one fell out of their mum being able to do that.

sure, there might be some young kids who seem to have talent for music or art, but you look at their environment, they are usually surrounded by people with the same set of skills, so they're just learning from their surrounding environment, lol

sorry for the rant, I'm kinda passionate about this topic because it's kinda sad to see people give up or not even try because they think they don't have "talent"

@ShenaniganFoodie I remember someone telling me once: that people start to really enjoy something once they understand it, and once something becomes intuitive enough where they don't have to put much thought into what they're doing.

So you probably enjoy it now because it's something that's become a second nature flow-state
