In sum: this is a Berlin-based version of Hacker School NYC, with a few twists: it's EU-based; part-time involvement is possible; and we'll incorporate some quantified-self hacks to measure progress (exactly what and how, TBD).

If you want to come hone your skills in one of the great cities of the world alongside a small, friendly group of committed coders, be sure to apply. Berlin has world-class culture, a blooming startup scene, high quality-of-life, great public transit - and it's all quite affordable.

If you know of great coders who love teaching and sharing, please let us know - we definitely want to get in touch with them as residents/mentors. Travel and living expenses will be covered, of course. Thanks HN!
