A Lambda School student a few months ago told me that if he landed a six figure job as a software engineer he’d fly to my house and sing to me. That offer just came in.

You are either the shrewdest PR person ever or running the coolest company ever (my hunch is it’s both). Still, love your tweets about changing lives.

Its not hard to be pretty jazzed when you see what’s going on. But just wait until we start to scale!

I have the same question too! If I’d had to guess, just based on what I know just from Twitter of recent Lambda developments (e.g. housing, relocation assistance), it’s because Austen has more ambitious plans re: connecting employers and workers. It’s incredibly neat to see.

Sure, and those experiments they run are awesome. But honestly it seems like their real “moats” are the curriculum/teaching method, and the career placement pipeline. Curriculum can be horked, established relationships cannot. Hence my surprise that they aren’t already scaling.

We’re one of the biggest code schools out there, growing about 15% month over month, but I don’t consider that scaling yet. This is version 0.1.

That’s amazing. Didn’t mean to imply that your growth isn’t impressive. I’m a huge fan. It makes zero sense for me but your value prop is so strong I’m still tempted to go through your program. Legitimately curious about next level and challenges in getting there.
