Archive org link submitted by OP is very broken on mobile iOS.

Original post on Reddit is still there but I suppose OP may have feared that mods would remove it or something?

https://www.reddit.com/r/LambdaSchool/comments/kb87od/lambda...

In case it does get removed then try this link instead:

https://www.removeddit.com/r/LambdaSchool/comments/kb87od/la...

On the latter link make sure you then change the drop down from showing removed comments only to showing all comments.

But like I said as of yet the original post and comments are still there on Reddit.

Not sure what changed in lambda school, but it's probably not a good year to do any boot camps period.

My alma matter, insight data sciences program, folded last week. Laid off most staff. Grateful for their training, but not surprised that model couldn't survive this year. At the same time I'm hearing offers are starting to skyrocket for some specialists! Let's see how things evolve in 2021!

To be fair, it's broken in the exact same way the actual site is: it's only viewable in landscape

This URL still uses archive.org but in a non broken format: https://web.archive.org/web/20201214092323if_/https://old.re...

People are paying ~$30k for bootcamps? Why not get a degree at that point?

Time commitment, flexibility of schedule, most importantly no upfront cost(and not wanting to go into debt either).

All of this is valid IF the bootcamp works. In this case, that may not be the case.
