burn the midnight oil

基本解释

Ever have a project deadline where you need to burn the midnight oil to get the work done?
有没有一个项目到了截止日期，你需要开夜车完成？
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.
在其他领域，工程师挑灯夜战以确保一双鞋子的广告能够跟随着某个消费者，不论这个消费者跳到那个网站，直到他最终动心并买下几双新鞋。
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后一分种的话就好象建立一个超大的库存，然后企图用开夜车的方式度过最后的阶段。

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.
