NoCS Degreeby Pete McLeod
Pete McLeod launched NoCS Degree in July 2019 after quitting a minimum wage job to become an indie hacker. The blog interviews successful developers without computer science degrees, generating $70 in first-week revenue and 48,000 page views through a viral Hacker News launch. Within months, Pete scaled to ~$2,000/month MRR primarily through newsletter sponsorships from coding bootcamps and SaaS companies, applying high-ticket B2B sales tactics rather than pursuing low-value subscriptions.
