save and invest most of my paychecks; and when robots replace most of our IT jobs, move to some of the lowest cost per acre for land counties, to raise chickens and goats.

would be most gracious from them to open-source it. It would completely removes the bad aftertaste from those who trusted the product and the company.

- first copy on external 2Tb drive, via Time Machine ( macosx )

- second copy on 12Tb Raid5 NAS, via rsync

- code and settings also on cloud ( gitlab )

- documents also on cloud ( GDrive )

- media burned on DVD.

just surrender... agree with them and collect your paychecks. Later you will collect more paychecks fixing the slop.

actual engineering, i guess... before ai-assisted coding, it was like the civil engineer laying the bricks himself.

mostly GLM-5-turbo for coding,

and gemini-3.6-flash for brainstorming problems

( why ? token cost and availability at work )

you should take this job as what every job is: means to a comfortable living. Take the paychecks, if the backlog of weeks take months and the c-levels are used to it, it only means more paychecks for you.... save/invest as much as you can, and spend the rest with whatever gives you pleasure, this alone should prevent your health deteriorating.... maybe even "stop worrying and love the bomb".
