The OpentType ColrV1 format is absolutely mental. Nobody.... Nobody needs full 2D graphics pipeline to render emojis.

Our small, tight-knit team is hiring a Compiler Engineer for the .NET JIT. We're happy to both teach and learn new ways to make code run faster 🚀 (C++/C#, Redmond area) jobs.careers.microsoft.com/global/en/job/…
