I think it gave me an appreciation for breaking things down to their smallest parts. I did astroparticle physics, which involves studying particles by looking at their interactions indirectly, usually in space. I was part of a team looking for dark matter by studying its gravitational effects.
To understand how dark matter interacts at large scales, you need to understand its properties at small scales (ie. individually). I think that need to understand the building blocks of things relates to the things I'm interested in in software development. I hate using a library or package without understanding how it works under the hood.
