Real life is intensely boring. It is constant grind for everyone, getting food, cleaning, takes most of their time.
I just had to accept it, as it is. Because most people are struggling with getting their life running, not with "boundaries of human knowledge". Then I started accepting my own shortcomings, there is much more daily easy problems to be solved here and now.
