Codesmith launched their new website and it shifts focus to "enterprise" AI consulting, burying all their individual programs.

The first bootcamp I dove into was Lambda School and its founder but once journalists published it was less interesting. I have gathered lighter info on a dozen bootcamps but nothing interesting caught my eye. Codesmith all started when I interviewed two engineers and they were lying through their teeth about their engineering jobs (that were 3 week projects at Codesmith) and then starting poking around and uncovering this ecosystem. The second I starting poking around and asking questions I got this attack mob on me (which was later tied to a leader of Codesmith asking people to post on Reddit and go after my questions and observations). Instead of being intimidated or bullied I launched an investigation that I've been spending now four years on, professionally asking people questions, watching tons of YouTube videos, collecting a lot of evidence, reading corporate fillings, lawsuits, etc... And it's the most incredible story. The more I dig, the more crazy wild accusations come flying at me and just makes me dig more. Like being accused of "stalking" someone for reviewing their Reddit comment history as a moderator and pointing out bad past behavior.
