I’m a junior in a top 10 cs undergrad (doing well) but I don’t *feel* smart and compsci-y, or that I know how most things work. Is this normal or am I stupid

I was recently promoted to a manager in a CS related field, and I swear every day my boss is coming to my desk to fire me for not knowing how to do my job, that said, yesterday he brought me hot chocolate so I figured I was safe. But he’s definitely coming today to tell me it’s over and I’ve been found out.
