I don’t know how I feel about programming bootcamps because my autodidactic method was mostly a consequence of having access to a computer and some books during an early age. What I do know is that people with similar biographies who talk shit about them should generally stfu.

Bootcamps are totally a scam (except for a very select few) and my answer to that is community college + in-person mentorship + MOOCs. Learning on your own is super hard and I think it should be part of the process but not the whole answer.
