We’re trying to find more women instructors for Lambda School.

Do you know of any forums, sites, meetups, events, etc that are women centric, where we might be able to recruit? Send me a link!
Our instructor roles are 100% remote, pay like engineering roles, have great benefits, and affect the lives of thousands of people every year in a very substantive way.
Hiring now across web development (HTML/CSS/JS), iOS, data science, computer science, and more.

Feel free to email referrals to instructors@lambdaschool.com

We introduced what we call Flex at Lambda School. It’s actually a real-life application of Bloom’s 2 Sigma Problem:

Students with mastery learning and one on one tutoring perform TWO STANDARD DEVIATIONS better than students learning under conventional methods
Every student is grouped in a very small cohort (6-8) based on the level of learning they should be at, and that group has a single paid mentor all day. They focus on the objectives from a single “sprint” or module until mastery.

It’s expensive as as hell, but the results...
* We’ve had 811 repeat sprints, with an 87% pass rate (5% higher than first attempt totals)

* 221 students who would have been behind, lost, or possibly even dropped from the program altogether are now firmly on the path to their first job

Alright, who's ready to check out some of the software Lambda School students are building?

You'll see what I mean when I say these look like real companies, not student projects.

To hire these students: lambdaschool.com/hire
Project 1: Cadence.

Cadence is beautiful shift-scheduling software for small and medium businesses.

Note how they manage edge cases.

Project 2: Bckwds.

Bckwds is a hiking/climbing trip planner.

Note how they use D3 to visualize the elevation for every trip.

Now we are going to talk a little bit more about what my homeschool curriculum told me about evolution, and also what it puts forward as the REAL explanation about the timeline of humanity and fossil record.
#ExposeChristianHomeschooling
Be patient. I promise we'll get to the stuff about dinosaurs. But first, a little more on how they told me that evolution is evil.
For example, they told me that people accepting evolution is responsible for eugenics and genocide.
A note on genocide:
I want to point out something that I found interesting as I was reading my way through all 54 ATI wisdom booklets.
Hitler gets brought up a LOT, but mostly in the context of how people rejecting the Bible as only source of Truth will lead to bad things.

As a child, how would you have liked moving schools in new cities with different cultures every 2-4 years?

Growing up in the #IndianArmy, I absolutely loved it! By the time I was 18, we had moved over 9 times across 9 states! #Diversity #India #TravelTuesday #IWS #VoicesIWS

Day 7 of the Bates v Post Office High Court trial and I am currently at a deserted Walton-on-Thames station in the middle of what should be rush hour. I have less than 2 hours to get to court. Hmm...
Whilst I am trying to work out how to get to court for the #postofficetrial, please do buy today's @DailyMailUK - on p10 there is a piece about Seema Morra whose husband first got me interested in this story 8 years ago.
Spent the last two hours collecting the car, driving 13 miles from Walton to Wimbledon, parking, and am now on the Milk Float line to Temple after which there will be a short uphill sprint to the Rolls Building. I suspect I will miss an hour of proceedings.

There’s this thread that a lot of TERFs are circulating, and while I don't normally engage, I want to share my story as a response, because I think it’s relevant. So buckle up: here’s a thread about how feminism led me to my transgender identity.
Context: The original tweets are from a woman who initially came out as transgender, only to discover radfem ideology and discover she had internalized a lot of misogyny — that embracing herself as a woman and learning she was okay exactly as she was saved her life.
I want to say this upfront: I am grateful that any woman struggling with misogyny has found the affirmation she needs. I’m also livid that we exist in a world where it's difficult to find (so much so that a harmful fringe ideology had to supply that information — but I digress).
