I thought I would completely agree with this post (since I do believe that coding academies are indeed nonsense), but it's so full of stupid comments. The author seems to not understand what coding is (despite his 15 years of experience as being repeated several time, as if to make it true maybe). Coding is not just building a stupid app, coding is not translating English into some weird language. The language of choice in programming is just a detail, anyone can learn a syntax in a couple days. The real challenge is in the understanding and the modeling of the problems, the design of the solution to have all the pieces fit together.
