1. Okay well on this (I obviously don't know as much as you about bootcamps—I'm still learning about them) but this, at surface level, comes across as a bit of a double standard on transparency, but oh well, I can see I won't change your mind. 2. It'd be great if you could come

2. I think instead of assuming it should be easy, trying to cooperatively understand why it's not and imainge the scenarios I'm describing would help. Like if you can propose metrics that handle the cases I throw at you, I'm all ears. If you were only going to put in 5 hours a week at Formation you would want to be misled by averages sped up by people doing 40 hours weeks. If you have a bunch of interviews in the pipeline and you are intentionally delaying them for 4 months, then you both bring down the average for others without interviews on the horizon AND don't care about the average because you already have a plan. Like I said, we would like to normalize for amount of effort put into Formation, and have some ideas there, but they can't be computed in a spreadsheet.
3. The post had 1/10th the views of a normal post but your comment (deep in the threads and requiring manual expansion) had 14 upvotes within minutes/an hour of posting. This suggests that someone me OR you closely, found that, shared it with a group of people, who all came over and upvoted it. That violates Reddit's ToS.
