The curriculum mirrors real-world industry software development workflows.
Andy was my favorite kind of leader at Palantir - a player-coach who got a lot done, while leading technologists who admire him.
He just taught a course at @uaustinorg - how to build a full stack web app from scratch.
A great intro to how software actually gets built today. Check it out!

It still amazes me how easy it is to now learn, for free, from the world's best craftspeople vs when I was growing up.
So many of them invest a lot of time to teach people what they know once they've "made it". We could spend 100 lifetimes just learning from the people who helped build the modern world.

@JTLonsdale @uaustinorg Very cool!
@JTLonsdale @uaustinorg chapter 1: model -> server -> local -> repository -> logic -> frames -> screens -> components. if it doesn’t start with structure, then it has no hope.
@JTLonsdale @uaustinorg This is the kind of goal post moving that is needed in high functioning society.
Now if we could just get the high trust portion down better.
