Episode description

AI didn’t kill bootcamps — shallow learning did.

So what skills actually matter now that building a CRUD app is a commodity?

And can you learn them without working at a company or getting a CS degree?

In this episode, I’ll break down why the bootcamp model no longer works, what’s replacing it, and how to develop the old school engineering mindset that will set you apart in the AI era — even if you’re self-taught.

If you’re serious about becoming a software engineer and want mentorship that’s not just YouTube and vibe coding, check out Parsity.io or hit the link in the show notes to chat.
