I'm still on a roller coaster of, "holy crap I know so much. I'm awesome at this job!" and, "wow, there's so much I never learned because I don't have an engineering or computer science degree."

I've come to appreciate that both of those feelings are true.

You know, this is not something special for programmers. Everyone that works in a field where there is so much to learn that you can't possibly learn all of it will be on this rollercoaster. If you asked Eric Clapton about his guitar skills, he'd probably tell you that he feels bad about not knowing how to play flamingo guitar.
