TL;DR -- bro stop pushing CS and dissing other reputable bootcamps like TE cuz CS aint even meant for everyone. If you're their type, go for it, it's awesome. But everyone else is probably wasting their time and should look at Rithm or TE. Or something else. Or nothing at all. An

I take that as feedback because your take on my comments is not at all what was intended. I'll clarify here some things just for the record, but happy to discuss more.
1. I don't endorse or support Codesmith. Their leaders don't like and bad mouth me constantly as "the Reddit Troll" to their staff and students. Current students have messaged me telling me this.
2. I don't think Codesmith is better or worse than Tech Elevator and completely agree, different things for different people.
3. I don't have ANYTHING against TE and I recommend them often, I think my choice of language was offensive to people and I talked to the CEO (who left yesterday) briefly about this to open the door for a more amicable relationship.
4. TE moved a couple of in person cohots online in 2023 and that's what I was referring to. The magic of TE and the reason I recommend it - is their in person program and company relationships in the cities they are in. It's a strong reason to go there if you want to work in those cities and perhaps your best option!
