Public and open-source contributions aren't a measure of skill, in fact they're not a measure of anything other than public and open-source contributions.
Personally I try to keep all of my work as private as possible. There is no particular reason, I'm just a private person.
Do you really want to work for a company that measures competence based on pissing-contest and attention-whoring mentality?
- delinka 13y ago"Public and open-source contributions aren't a measure of skill..." Exactly. Because they're falsifiable. I'd personally rather work for people who value skill, not falsifiable data.
