Ask HN: Would bootcamps for Advance software Engineering skills be useful?

Do you think it would be helpful to attend boot camps that offer advanced software engineering skills?

Conference workshops, hands-on sessions, hackathons, etc. are too short for anyone to learn advanced skills.

Advanced, like what exactly?

Focusing on Software Engineering principles, Software Architecture, DevOps engineering, etc.

Yes, absolutely. Some of us need structure to learn; and not all jobs provide the opportunity to continue to learn and level up. And for many whose employers have training budgets, it would be a justifiable and subsidized expense.

I for one would jump at the chance to attend a 1-2 week full time or 3-month evening devops bootcamp in NYC.
