Thanks for the article. It has data, which it is more than an opinion.

So my opinion. I'd prefer and pay more for a BS CS than a bootcamper; if the bootcamper never went to college. Why? While the data proves that bootcampers are capable and competitive, besides algorithms and data structures, they lack general education. Sciences, history, and mathematics are used in the work place and some in programming. One should have at least a general level in these areas. Also, part of college is falling on your face and learning to work with all sorts of people. I'd prefer to have someone fall on their face in college than to deal with a smart 19 year old that is just starting life and is not mature enough to live as an adult. And lastly, I managed a pizza restaurant after high school and then went to college. I never worked with females or non-whites until college. It was a great experience and in a multi-million dollar company I'd prefer someone that has been around and respects other cultures and genders.
