- hello_newman 9y agoThank you for this. I remember reading this 5+ years ago. It was the catalyst for me dropping out of college, and eventually made my way up to SF to go to DBC. A hell of a journey, and it all started with a post on some forum. Edit: I also didn't realize you're the DBC founder? I owe you so much and i owe my entire career (thus far) to DBC and the entire industry you started with some crazy idea of teaching people to code in a couple months. Thank you for everything you have done.
- kabuks 9y agoYou are very welcome. Thank you for the kind words.
- toomanyrichies 9y agoShereef, as a DBC grad (Otters, Chicago, 2013), I thank you for posting this. It changed my life, and the lives of many other students. To think, this is the post that launched an industry!
