I’m not saying I never wrote bugs, but tools like SAL or RAII types that manage sharing help. By the time I checked in, they were either squashed or not found until after I left Microsoft.

I built a domain agnostic virtualization and streaming platform that generalized the “Click2Run” features of Office and could apply retroactively to any traditional app that didn’t include kernel code (e.g. worked on Adobe Creative Suite)

I also worked on the early phases of the sandbox that runs WinRT for JS, which also required paying my dues and fixing bugs or implementing new features (e.g. the fetch API) for the Trident engine in IE.

I wouldn’t consider these trivial projects.
