- very stupid question: how does an absolute beginner at hardware stuff go about figuring out exactly how these things work? - like identity microcontrollers and microprocessors, figure out what each one is for - identify how to connect to them to read their firmware or bios or whatever, tools needed to do this - what does that data mean and how to actually reverse engineer it - how do you go about learning these things?
