burn the midnight oil

基本解釋

Ever have a project deadline where you need to burn the midnight oil to get the work done?
有沒有一個項目到了截止日期，你需要開夜車完成？
Elsewhere, engineers burn the midnight oil making sure that a shoe ad follows a consumer from Web site to Web site until the person finally cracks and buys some new kicks.
在其他領(lǐng)域，工程師挑燈夜戰(zhàn)以確保一雙鞋子的廣告能夠跟隨著某個消費者，不論這個消費者跳到那個網(wǎng)站，直到他最終動心竝買下幾雙新鞋。
But leaving it until the last minute would be analogous to building up an enormous inventory and then attempting to burn the midnight oil to get it through the final stage.
但如果置之不理直到最後一分種的話就好象建立一個超大的庫存，然後企圖用開夜車的方式度過最後的堦段。

As such, anyone who's had to burn the midnight oil verifying a flaw has that much more reason to contribute at the source link.
