Release the code as-is. It's alright if it's not clean and organized, research code is usually crappy code (no offense given). Worst case scenario, it will end up in a star-less github repo that nobody reads.

5.000.000 for a single exec means 50.000 for each of the 100 "average engineers" working in their department. You can overcompensate execs because there fewer of them than engineers.

I make bread at home, it's not a complicated recipe. I'm pretty sure they could do it in California as well, but it's unlikely they will like it (something about being "too crusty" ?). Anyway, here's a working

It's a nightmare if you're writing in two different languages at the same time, eg. French sentence with English words in it. I often have to disable one or the other and live with most words being red underlined, because autocorr

Plastic breaks down in tiny pieces and is almost impossible to repair when broken. It's also very difficult to reuse or recycle when you want to. If your house is still standing after a thousand years, it's also because its habita

If you already have the required experience for writing working multithreaded programs, then learning Rust isn't going to be an issue ! If you don't or are unsure about that, then stick to simpler forms of programming or use type-

Usually, you don't start learning a new language with multithreaded operations.. In that sense, adding a gc to rust for single threaded programming, is almost useless : it's not helping that much and you're not learning.

Your story lacks all the details that makes it interesting. Which company? What's your app? Why is it so different from existing apps that you cannot work out how to adapt on the current deployment system? Nevertheless, yes it's v

I do work with large orgs almost exclusively. I have no problem with individual devops engineers going back to their team after X weeks or at the end of the project. This way they can integrate avances with other teams and share knowledge.
