This is crazy to me as someone from the private sector. You all just code where the world can see?

- sumtechguy 3y agoPretty sure you can have private repos with github?
- dukeyukey 3y agoPrivate repos. Even my personal stuff is private by default.
- flir 3y agoI have "me at home" and "me at work" accounts, I don't generally create a new at-work account for each job. Maybe I should. I've been trying to do more hobbyist work in public repos. It's not like there's a Greek chorus waiting to pounce on every mistake. Truth is, nobody cares. It's freeing, in a way, because "I'll publish it when it's done" actually means "I'll never publish it at all".
- bbsz 3y agoYeah, it's sometimes even hard to make code owners look at the complete feature PR to their codebase. There's 99.9% probability that 100% of 'geeking out' on github in public repositories will never be browsed by anybody. I also find having some public activity on my gh to give me an ability to include it into the resume. It's a good conversation starter for many people from my experience.
