There's actually a program called Make School that's pretty similar to this Lambda school, except they DO have student dorms and even offer a 2k/month living stipend in SF. Finding Make School on ProductHunt a few years ago was probably one of the highlights of my young adulthood.

That's also true, but it's much more easily for someone to find a place to crash for six months than to come up with $10k out-of-pocket.
Eventually we'll be able to provide a stipend for living expenses and/or dormitory style living as well, but for now it is what it is.
Right now, the people who need to learn to code need room and board, not yet another free coding school.
There are a lot of great resources, no doubt, but those don't really compare to an in-person experience with an instructor and a school incentivized to take you all the way to hired.
Plus in time a Lambda qualification may become more respected by employers than a Coursera degree.
What these programs need most of all are cheap dormitories that offer room and board. (Close proximity to students can also help provide one another with a support network.)
