The New York Times has coverage on the phenomenon of Developer Bootcamps, that claim to do in a matter of a couple of months what used to take at least a couple of years for an associate's degree. These cram courses are apparently getting about a 75% job placement rate.

Have any Soylentils either gone through these programs, or worked with others who have? If so, what are your experiences?

    Radix's sort O(n) runtime is quite controversial as it's actually O(n*log(k)) where you can have at most k different elements that must all have a binary representation.

    More on this here [stackoverflow.com]

    For comparison only sorting algorithms (much smaller constraint) O(n*log(n)) is proven to be the best worst case running time.
