so what you are saying, is that rust solves the issue of finding competent engineers. you can use a language like rust such that engineers don’t need to be any good. it reminds me of microsoft frontpage and all the other scripting languages

you could find a role that pays more first, and set the starting date such that you can travel before starting in the new role. this only works if you can still stay for a few months. if you need to GTFO right now for mental health then you

i rather do that than grind leetcode and receive zero respect for my years of experience and skills. you write the code, you own it. if they want to use it, demand payment to sign the rights over.

you have 3 months to waste grinding leetcode but can’t do a small relevant assignment in the comfort of your home which you don’t need to grind leetcode for?

are you paying them for their work? if not, you should. i assume you are giving them something relevant to work on. if you don’t want to pay them, do not ask them to sign NDAs and understand they will keep ownership of their work.

i don’t think we should be portraying ageism as something cool or acceptable. it is a huge problem in our industry that this discrimination exists. i’ve started to experience this stealth discrimination when i turned 40.
