I would <i>love</i> to have something like this, but for Ruby and Rails. The price is right, too. Seriously. I will be first in line.<p>The dev bootcamps are really enticing to me, but I don't have any realistic way of leaving my job for two weeks and fronting the thousands of dollars.
Developer bootcamps are expensive, but offer more than just knowledge. If you're looking to get a job as a software developer, paying for a bootcamp allows you access to experts but also to a network typically geared towards getting you a first job. Access to a network is an invaluable boost in any career, but especially for individuals trying to bootstrap their way into it.<p>With that said, I'd totally do this because learning Python online while being able to ask questions seems pretty sweet. But I don't know if I would substitute this for an initial education.
As someone who is a designer I've always wanted an environment of collaboration to learn programming together with an expert. I've tried books and other things but bridging the gap from Hello World to doing something more complicated than just mad libs is difficult for me. I've signed up for an invite. I hope this happens :)
