I feel like I don't really understand some of the fundamental CS stuff, and I'm just cargo-culting. I mean, I can write some stuff and I have a decent understanding of recursion, data structures, and some low level stuff about processors, but I feel a general sense of "what am I doing" while writing any code and I don't really know what I'm missing. I don't know, maybe this is just impostor syndrome or something, but I definitely am missing some fundamentals. Does anyone have recommendations about what to learn and how? Thanks!

If you're in it for the long haul (1-2 years), I'd recommend working through the recommendations in
https://www.teachyourselfcs.com/. The Algorithms part, the Networks part and DDIA all have a very high return on time invested.
