numist··on Swift at Apple: Migrating the TrueType hinting interpreter

There's mention at the end. The models (and Swift itself!) have evolved a lot since this project started, so the early code is largely hand-rolled and the later changes were mostly authored by centaurs (to steal a term from chess).

But I personally reviewed every line that shipped and was absolutely insufferable about testing.

Pretty much. When I was at VMware (2007-2011) the canonical logo used small caps for the capital letters. I thought it looked nice.
