As a former student of the accelerated coding bootcamp, I am in disbelief. The program <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3267133" target="_blank">started</a> as an experiment teaching the Ruby <a href="https://hackernoon.com/tagged/programming" target="_blank">programming</a> language to six random San Franciscoans.
