I sincerely hope they don't do a course on Website performance or page asset loading. Turn on Firebug and refresh the site, and you'll see no script/css combining, lots of un-minified js, and a total download of more than half a megabyte on the homepage. It feels slow too.

Successful entrepreneurs release and sell first, refine later.

The courses claim to teach programming, not entrepreneurship.

They're in the business of coding first, the coding of business second.

No they teach rails development. Lots of rails development is about getting something out the door. Lots of people throw money at a situation instead of more programming effort these days, as its cheaper and "works" as well in the long run for many cases.

This is especially true of apps based on stuff like Heroku.
