Classic internet. The argument for bootcamps is easy! It costs a FRACTION of a college degree, takes a fraction of the time, and almost guarantees you a job.

"you'd be lucky to make it through a year as a junior dev without being fired if all the skills you have come from a bootcamp" LOL. I know literally hundreds of people who have done just that, and it aint luck. There is tons in a comp sci degree that you don't need to know right away to be an effective working programmer. And lots of bootcamps do teach "How to sort a lidt(sic) efficiently". It's a little hard to generalise because bootcamps vary in quality - like anything - but they give you a good structured introduction to lots of relevant material and the tools to keep learning as you go.
