I mean, I agree anyone can do anything with enough effort, but some people have an easier time. It’s really easy for me to program computers. I routinely am perplexed that people I know can’t understand or see the algorithms and structures I see. That doesn’t mean I’m the best or that others cannot learn it, just that somehow my brain is structured, whether through nature or nurture, in a way that helps me do logic and math required for programming. On the other hand, I cannot learn other languages. I just cannot figure them out. I still worked hard to learn that skill, but I definitely worked way less hard to become experienced at this than so many programmers I know.

In my view, not everyone needs to be good at everything, but I do get that society sets up maths and science as way harder than it has to be. Part of that is how we teach math, too. I hated math until I went to college and roundabout earned a maths degree.
