Lambda School is a social mobility engine growing at an exponential rate.
It's exciting to see those two concepts in the same sentence. Especially if,
like me, you've seen what exponential growth can do.Paul Graham

Something Lambda School shares with YC: they can't accept many more
students than they can get hired, just as YC can't accept many more
startups than they can get funded. I can tell you from experience that this
constraint is wonderfully focusing.Paul Graham

When I met Austen and did the math, I realized the simple reason Lambda
School prepares students so well. It's so intense that they do about the
same amount of programming as you would in a CS degree. They just do it
in 9 months instead of 4 years. x.com/Austen/status/...</a></label><br><a href="https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/112/290/240/837/345/308/original/e88410a3a70679e7.png" rel="external">https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/112/290/240/837/345/308/original/e88410a3a70679e7.png</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/2515732">Paul Graham

Lambda School will teach you programming faster than most colleges. And
it not only works well remotely, but was designed to from the start.Paul Graham

Only very briefly. If it's not already prestigious to be a Lambda School
graduate, it won't be long before it is.Paul Graham

Lambda School may not be a complete solution to the brokenness of US
higher education, but it's an immediate one. And the hole in the dam is still
small, but it's growing at startup rates.</a></label><br><a href="https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/112/290/241/151/455/519/original/22863bb486d8e9ce.png" rel="external">https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/112/290/241/151/455/519/original/22863bb486d8e9ce.png</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/2515733">CFPB Takes Action Against Coding Boot Camp BloomTech and CEO Austen Allred for Deceiving Students and Hiding Loan Costs
For-profit school made false claims about job-placement rates
APR 17, 2024
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) issued an order against BloomTech and its CEO, Austen Allred, for deceiving students about the cost of loans and making false claims about graduates’ hiring rates. The CFPB found that BloomTech and Allred falsely told students the school’s “income share” agreement contracts were not loans, when in fact the agreements were loans carrying an average finance charge of around $4,000. BloomTech and Allred lured prospective enrollees with inflated promises of job-placement rates as high as 86 percent, when the company’s internal metrics showed placement rates closer to 50 percent and in some cases as low as 30 percent. The order permanently bans BloomTech from all consumer-lending activities and bans Allred from any student-lending activities for ten years. The CFPB is also ordering BloomTech and Allred to cease collecting payments on income share loans for graduates who did not have a qualifying job, eliminate finance changes for certain agreements, and allow students the option to withdraw without penalty. BloomTech and Allred must also pay over $164,000 in civil penalties, which will be deposited in the CFPB’s victims relief fund.</a></label><br><a href="https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/112/290/241/487/056/855/original/1d9f6b6816006480.png" rel="external">https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/112/290/241/487/056/855/original/1d9f6b6816006480.png</a></li></ol></footer></blockquote>
