Hey guys, can someone explain me or tell me what I can google about how the conversion of bytes32 to uint works?
uint test = uint(any bytes32 value);
What is happening there? And is the size of the uint always the same? I don't know what to google for 😅

A uint is always the same size, no matter its contents. Smaller uints may get packed together to reduce the gas footprint, but that's a special case.
But as for your other question, I'm not quite sure what exactly happens there
