Life update: after almost 9 years, I'm leaving Google. It feels very bittersweet, as I've met and learned from so many lovely, smart people in my career here. But it's time to go. I'll be joining Airbnb in the new year.

Better CSS inlining for SSR users is coming in Angular 16.1! We've worked with Angular to integrate a new version of Critters that improves runtime performance and adds flexibility to finetune the generated CSS.
