Do I need to dispose of Tasks? - .NET Parallel Programming

Short answer: No.
The only time you may want to dispose a Task is when you are explicitly using IAsyncResult.AsyncWaitHandle which causes an allocation of a disposable resource. But even in that case you may not bother disposing it.

Simplex Derivatives

How to calculate derivatives of simplex noise and use them to generate normal and tangent vectors for procedurally generated meshes. Allows offloading the work from the main thread, since built-in RecalculateNormals() method runs only on the main thread.

Temporal Anti-Aliasing(TAA) for Unity’s Universal Render Pipeline

Unity's default Temporal Anti-Aliasing(TAA) has some problems in URP. Natively, URP does not support TAA while Unity PostProcess V2 does support. However, PostProcess V2's support fails for TAA because it cannot jitter the camera in the ScriptableRenderPipeline

Simplified Clean Architecture Design Pattern for Unity

An example of a clean architecture inspired by the book of Bob Martin of the same name. It has some contradictions to the original, so you can start with it and then check the book or its short review to decide what goes better for your project.
