Are bytes... lesser known, or an especially advanced topic?
I didn't think so, but then interviewing Juniors (who all invariably have "expert python" on their CVs), nobody ever seems to know them, or anything about string handling/unicode.
Are the basics about how stuff is moved around inside computers just completely opaque to people learning to program nowadays? I learned that stuff at secondary (high) school, so internally my brain just counts it as "foundational knowledge".
