If you are starting your career and panic reading such list, that would take years to learn, if even. Don't worry. Most of these items are more like nice to know than should know. Yeah it would be great if every software developer knew everything. But I doubt even the repository owner know all that is listed. My best advice to newcomers is get your hands dirty and stay away from endless hours of courses, YouTube videos and "awesome lists".

The repository owner does not know everything, and has already forgotten many things he used to know from the list But it’s a distilled and curated list of the resources I’ve found important to have at hand and revisit periodically

  That's nice and all except the title is misleading and discouraging to new devs. I would even put a disclaimer on top of fixing the title. But I guess it wouldn't be clickbaity then.

    There is a disclaimer, but not very clear I guess

Absolutely. This kind of list isn't the price to entry. Toward the middle of your career you should have a reasonable understanding of roughly what's in all of those and why someone cared to write them down, and be able to know when to consult them. And you will know at least a few of them very well.
