Hi @elonmusk, we hear you want hardcore video engineering at Twitter 2.0. At FFmpeg we've been doing hardcore video programming for decades (high performance hand written assembly etc.) Get in touch if you want to talk!
@elonmusk Errr...this tweet blew up (thanks @ID_AA_Carmack!).

FFmpeg and affiliated projects like @videolan are open source projects with many technical challenges at the cutting edge of video.

To anyone interested, check out the code: source.ffmpeg.org (in C of course)
And join #ffmpeg-devel on Libera IRC (yes we still use IRC as our main form of communication). There are always people who can answer questions 24/7.

We don't care about your background, we have had high school students writing assembly.
FFmpeg is open source software that powers all online video (Youtube, Facebook, Disney+, etc), it's shipped in web browsers (Chrome, Firefox etc) and countless other applications involving video.
And written largely by volunteers in their spare time.
Oh, and check out our SoundCloud: ffmpeg.org/developer.html…
