We have used too many levels of abstractions and now the future looks bleak
Agreed!
It reminds me of:
https://github.com/alex/what-happens-when
and how many of today’s CS-degree holders would barely understand any of it. As someone who has also “grown up with all the technology”, I’ve learned and experienced all that. But as a percentage of “software engineers”, there’s fewer and fewer that do every day.

I just blew my interview!
There is a pretty comprehensive answer to number 2 here

Are you skeptical about candidates that call themselves a "10x engineer"?
Ask them to describe what happens when you visit a website and grill them on every layer of abstraction, every implementation detail.

You and me Anon, you and me
This is a classic interview question and it basically means "How does internet work?" It is great because it allows to check how many levels of understanding it a developer has. The answer may be quite lengthy, for example: https://github.com/alex/what-happens-when
- Any course that actually teaches me how a website is built?

I have a question about subdomains and their DNS resolution
Perhaps you will find https://github.com/alex/what-happens-when useful.

PixieFail: Nine Vulnerabilities UEFI Implementations
> someone would have to pay a team of engineers to rewrite everything
A partial effort has already been made a while back: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-staging/tree/edkii-rust
However, this uses uefi-rs, which is incompatible with TianoCore's BSD+Patent licensing, and therefore cannot be used as reference material, as the wiki page states: https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Tasks-...
More recent efforts have also been mentioned in the mailing list: https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/search?p=recentpostdate%2Fsti...

[Guide] vTPM and Secureboot capability in a Proxmox-KVM [For Windows 11]
This involves recompiling OVMF with Secureboot and TPM capability and compiling swtpm and libtpms for emulating a TPM2, so quite some work to get it up and working. All of this assumes you are using the root user. The steps for compiling are roughly this guide: https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Common-instructions
