It's capped by your own motivation and desire to learn things? Doesn't really seem like a catch to me.

#5What's the catch?
Nothing... it'll be cheap (and fun) for us to run, and paid for out of our regular courses. We just think the community needs it.

For those that don't know, Recurse Center[^1] is a self-directed, 12 or 6 week free programming retreat in New York City. I'm currently enrolled, and my batch is finishing this week. It's been a really good learning experience, and I'd highly recommend it.

I don't think there is one.
"For the first batch, we’ll select a group of approximately 10 participants, based on our expectation of who will make the most of the opportunity and enhance one another’s work."
I think that Bradfield is trying to optimize for long term success by creating a strong community in the short/mid term.

#10Cool Ozanonay,
How the program works? I mean, there's any schedule, plans or lessons to follow? Can you share some of the scope to give us an idea how the course works? Tks!
