I deal with Junior devs that don’t even actually understand how it works now. Much less how it worked in the 90s. Routing is sysops, HTML is designers, storage is for DBAs. All they learn in coding boot camp is how react works, and even then, they don’t actually understand what it’s doing.
Unfortunately this is inevitable since it all has gotten really complex and large - not just the internet btw, just computing in general, of which the internet is a large part of course.
But teaching the basics and the history should be required imho.
So for an old fart like me, C/C++, netcode and multi threading senior, it’s all over?

In all industries the workers is eventually alienated from the process of production through specialization. They need not know the process of manufacture or how the machine functions. They must only know their part in it.
