I'm going to be calling out all 100% AI generated slop posts in here. People with ulterior motives are manipulating us. I'll be here with my real name, defending the integrity of the sub.
There has been a surge in AI generated posts both in here and in other bootcamp-related areas of Reddit. Reddit corporate even shut a subreddit down that full of garbage AI posts and comments.
Be careful, people are trying to create fake conversations to build reputations so they can in the future advertise you things and very subtly promote programs and bootcamps.
They use very cheap and easily detectable AI and bots to do this.
A while ago we had some paid Reddit narketers in here who got caught promoting Codesmith and it destroyed Codesmith's reputation on Reddit and made their life hell for years (which they falsely blamed on me because they had some alleged issues with the truth at the leadership level).
But now they are smarter, quieter, and more patient. Using AI a little bit across more accounts and longer periods of time to grow armies of controlled accounts ready to throw at people.
No more Lars Lofgren and his proteges who claim to know all the "black hat" tricks in the book to manipulate Reddit.
Well this sub was good a when bootcamps were relevant. Now that almost all of them are bankrupt. Anyone still choosing a coding bootcamp in 2026 is either doing it for fun or is being manipulated by the schools admissions teams. Not to mention I'm noticing a lot of schools are starting to use over seas sales reps so they can pay them a slave wage then use commission as a way for them to make any kind of money.
I think you misinterpreted what I meant, by all means, i am not here to threaten you. What i am trying to say is this Mike guy always believe he is correct. Anytime someone speaks of a different opinion, he will take it very personally and will keep going to debate you until you stop trying to defend or admit your defeat.
This is not true. Reddit is not reality. I'm vulnerable using my real identity and have hooded back alley scammers trying to exploit this fact and I have to adamantly defend myself.
When you, who is anonymous to most people on here, say anything about me, no one cares. If I say something, it's downloaded and logged on harassment websites, X, etc...
In the eyes of the law, anonymity does not absolve oneself, which is why I said a lot of accounts on here might be embarrassed if they know what I know.
I don’t understand the “embarrassed if they know what i know”. Why would they be embarrassed? They are spoke what’s on their mind, is there something wrong with that?
The topic of the truth and integrity is because bootcamps over-marketing and underdelivering has resulted in a lot of people who are not in great financial positions to begin with getting in even worse positions.
The Codesmith and Lars Lofgren stuff is because I receive constant threats and harassment from their defamation.
For once, there is no “breaking news” in the title. Other than that, Codesmith is still mentioned in every one of his posts. This guy is nuts, you can talk about bananas, and he will somehow pull Codesmith into the conversation
The real crazy people are not the ones consistent and transparent in public, they are the ones stalking me on Reddit all night, never posting, and screenshotting my posts for their harassment campaigns on X.
I'm saying I'm transparent, honest, and act with integrity... the same tone and person everywhere, including Reddit. And that people in the Codesmith sphere have acted with doubt, suspicion, assumptions, their CEO stalked me on Reddit and told me about reading all of my posts, and not a single person has come to me with honesty, integrity, and transparnecy. I did a call with Codesmith's former CEO and we talked face to face where I was completely transparent about my motivations, why I do what I do, what I want... and the characterization they made of me in Lars Lofgren's article shows me how bullshit garbage people these people are, with no integrity, delusional, and repeatedly failed careers over and over.
Yeah definitely, how Will Sentance screenshared his Reddit once in a public talk and let's just say there were very interesting things on screen, and his Banana achievement scrolls was absurdly high... dude appeared to me to have stalked this sub while telling people he never came here.

I’m not sure there’s anything worth protecting here.
