• How to start learning web development for free

  Freecodecamp provides 10+ free web development courses in JavaScript, Python, front-end, and back-end that are more than enough to kickstart any developer's career.  You learn through interactive coding exercises and articles, and can participate in forum discussions when you get stuck or need help. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Ask HN: Would doing a coding bootcamp be a horrible idea?

  Don't do bootcamp. Start with something like https://freecodecamp.org and take a few lessons. Try to build something from that and see how motivated you are. If you see some progress and this thing still excites you, then may be find an engineer (a friend/co worker etc) who can guide you a bit as you continue to build something. Start small and stay away from bootcamps (my 2 cents). - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Less known universities for classics

  You can check out the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard: https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/. On this site you can search your field of study and the degree level you are seeking to get a list of possible institutions to consider. Source: about 1 year ago

• Need help expanding my college list

  Bruh there is nothing good about Texas Tech engineering/cs. Definitely apply to TAMU it is a bit worse than UT for CS, but miles ahead of Texas Tech. TAMU engineering is easy to get into, but requires you to have a 3.8+ College GPA freshman year to be guaranteed the CS major. Use https://collegescorecard.ed.gov since it tells you the average CS salaries for the colleges you're planning to apply to. Source: about 1 year ago

• 🛑🛑Chance me!!! Very Average CS hopeful!!😭😭

  Get your scores up and you should be golden for everywhere on your list imo. I would even suggest if your scores go up enough to apply for a few reaches like GT, UIUC, Udub maybe more. When looking up schools cross reference reddit for social life/vibe stuff and outcomes for cs on https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/. Source: about 1 year ago
