      I recommend you just stop caring what the armchair pundits of Twitter think. Their opinions don't matter, and you have other much more important fish to fry.

          In fact, it's kind of amusing to allow them to continue to think they're right about Lambda School. It's almost like playing a practical joke on them.

          Agreed. But @Austen does have to fight back against any especially visible lies/skepticism/innaccurate critiques. We’ve seen the effect not doing so can have on a country, let alone a company.

          Only a few weeks in with @MiracleMessages' partnership with @LambdaSchool, and I have nothing but good things to say about y'all. Lambda students are helping us map out where we have reunited people experiencing homelessness with their loved ones via @Mapbox.

          I tend to believe those so-called pundits must belong to "Flat Earth Society"? Their twitter account has almost 84k followers here, more for amusement than for truth seeking??https://twitter.com/CindyBiSV/status/1155776274796703744 …

          Such claims kinda keep me up at night 😾🙀😼 Just like we can’t spend time arguing with “Flat Earth Society”, we really can’t get bothered by these so-called pundits 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🙅🏻‍♀️ https://wiki.tfes.org/Flat_Earth_-_Frequently_Asked_Questions … https://twitter.com/Austen/status/1155735339941556224 …

          Feedback like this delivers quite the sting, but that’s the point. You’re blessed with a great mentor, Austen.

          This is Twitter in a nutshell. Clever-sounding but mistaken diss gets thousands of likes. But with zero effect: Lambda School will go on growing and transform education. Few will remember having been part of the jeering mob. Neill may not even remember leading it. https://twitter.com/neill4illinois/status/1082623401204768768 …

          this is a problem with tech and critics: companies over-market and critics have unfair expectations. I wish it were acceptable for products and users to understand that they're part of a experiment. "failure" is a statistical fallacy; there's a distribution of outcomes
