Been a techy since a kid, IT "professional" for 12+ years. In undergrad, I had a professor tell me something I will never forget for as long as I live...
"What I'm teaching you is 95% science (physics, electronic engineering theory, FFT, etc.) and 5% magic"
It's absolutely true that no matter how well you understand how and why something is working, there is still that absolutely small percentage of "holy shit, I can beam a picture of a cat across the entire planet in a fraction of a second while pooping".

If that isn't magic, I truly don't know what is.
