Ask HN: Where can I find a primer on how computers boot?
Can't remember if it covers more practical stuff like GRUB but I really like https://littleosbook.github.io/

why if python is turing complete that means that everything can be created in it, but nobody decides to create things like OS, game engines and compilers and even if they do they use dozens of libraries and frameworks that are writen in languages like C, C++ or maybe Rust, why it is so?
A good place to start learning about OS programming is https://littleosbook.github.io/

What should I know for this task? (OS+TCP) + questions after googling
So a non 9p disk is more work than getting TCP? (UDP is my first goal but before that I'll read https://littleosbook.github.io/)

I wrote a tiny decrypting UEFI bootloader
Hi, did you know that you can write UEFI-code with Rust? You can, using uefi-rs!

Thanks for pointing that out. I've filed https://github.com/rust-osdev/uefi-rs/issues/685

This Month in Rust OSDev: April 2022
I'm extremely confused as to what's going on here. I think it might be related to Line 129: https://github.com/rust-osdev/uefi-rs/blob/main/src/table/system.rs

Writing a Simple Operating System – From Scratch [pdf]
First off I don't recommend implementing the specification from scratch. It is big, and there are implementations already in various languages: for C you can use GNU-UEFI, for example, and for Rust you can use uefi-rs. Zig even has it in its standard library! These take care of the fiddly details of interacting with the UEFI firmware's services.
There's tutorial type articles for these around: for C there's https://wiki.osdev.org/UEFI_App_Bare_Bones, for Rust there's this template https://github.com/rust-osdev/uefi-rs/tree/main/template and the crate's documentation.

UEFI vs BIOS. How much does it actually matter now of days?
A few people have made some progress into working with UEFI in Rust, and the results are here: https://github.com/rust-osdev/uefi-rs

Would someone mind helping explain where this code actually is?
use uefi::prelude::Handle; points to uefi-rs/src/prelude.rs found here: https://github.com/rust-osdev/uefi-rs/blob/master/src/prelude.rs
