If this is seen by a billionaire who'd like to move the needle on Rust's success in the greatest way, here is a roadmap for you.

1. Identify engineers with a minimum 2-year track record of dramatic productivity, tenacity, and low proclivity to bullshit (leadership roles, distracting side projects, thought leadership). Archetype: @compiler_errors (This one is not necessarily immediately on the market.)

2. Offer a non-negotiable flat rate that is above Big Tech "staff" but below "senior staff" compensation. Approx $800k USD/year to work on Rust in whatever way they want.

3. Make them write and maintain a "living roadmap" of everything they have line-of-sight to executing within the next 6-12 months, with frequent (monthly) revision. This can be concrete foreseeable projects, approach for coming by projects, or carved up time like "20%: compiler PR review with priority to type system". The roadmap is not for you or any other audience. It is for their perceived job security. The understanding should be if they execute on approximately this amount of value with high productivity and low bullshit, they are doing well, and will get fair warning and guidance if it doesn't trend that way.

4. Dismiss quickly and without remorse, if someone begins coasting or otherwise taking advantage of the opportunity in a self-serving manner. By this point you have already rewarded them beyond where they would be if they had kept their previous role so there will be no hard feelings. Engineers with this skill set will do perfectly fine somewhere else.

5. Do not take applications or recommendations. The roles are invite-only. The application process is performing the above described archetype on a volunteer basis or on behalf of a different employer, same as any other Rust contributor.

Disclaimers:
This is obviously not the only role it takes to make a great product. It is just the one that is most direly undervalued by the market. This is not a slight toward anyone whose work would not meet these criteria or who would not be attracted to such a role. Rather the opposite: they should feel fortunate that their archetype is not the undervalued one.

New York State will drop its mask-or-vaccine mandate, which requires businesses to ask for proof of full vaccination or require mask-wearing at all times in indoor public spaces. The mandate will officially expire on Thursday. https://t.co/DDFy9II7UY
