Coding bootcamps are replacing computer science degrees (venturebeat.com)

This article actually debunks its own headline toward the bottom:

"Since the first coding boot camps were founded in 2011 and 2012, there’s no clear impact [on the number of CS graduates], but note that computer science degrees had already seen a sharp decline since their peak in 2003."


Is this a promo for coding boot camps? Someone recently featured a medium article which slammed the coding boot camps by claiming they produce under qualified job candidates.


Computer science is far more than than just coding.

In other news, 3 hour DYI sessions are replacing plumbers and electricians. NOT.
