Article title: "Out in the Open: The Site That Teaches You to Code Well Enough to Get a Job"

It's a good thing the site's originator didn't make this claim. Even a first-rate site with an enviable effect on students wouldn't want to say this.

Maybe there should be a rating system for article titles, one that measures how far the title deviates from the article itself. In many cases such a title hurts the credibility of the article. In this case, it's obviously a well-intentioned and likely effective teaching method, one that shouldn't have to live down its hyped title.

You are totally right, Katrina never ever said anything about exercism being a place to help you land a job. As far as I know, this has never been her goal not does she intend to make it a future goal. Articles are rated based on page views, education doesn't attract tons of reads, so journalists try to be smart and come up with "catchy headlines"

I read the headline as semi-ironic. I actually expected it to be an article about how there is (currently) no such site and how bad the vast majority are (mine excepted, of course).
