I’m Michael. I was a principal engineer at Facebook from 2009 to 2017, where I was the top code contributor of all time and also conducted hundreds of interviews. I recently co-founded Formation.dev, an engineering fellowship that trains and refers engineers directly into big tech. Ask me Anything!

Did you ever see Zuck blink?

Yeah, I'm friends with Zuck and he's always been really nice and I don't get a lot of the portrayal! He's super competitive, and strategic, but he would ask how I was feeling when I was sick, and send gifts and what not.
