Great essay, though I wouldn’t say Lambda is proof that distance learning has succeeded.

haha doing better than college isn’t a high bar but it seems effective - what metric would you use?

There’s a large selection effect at play (highly self-motivated customers in an industry with a large labour shortfall). The median motivation person has checked out on Coursera etc, whereas historically a median college was good enough (though not good longer).

I like Lambda but the quality drops off significantly after them, as you can see from the hiring statistics of every bootcamp outside of the top 3-4.
