Quite opposite. Github is an anti-resume for dedicated hackers. You should not mention it, if you want to get 'normal' job in some corporation. - github shows you spend too much time programming outside of daily job - it shows how much more productive you are outside of work, possibly creating some uncomfortable questions for your boss. - running project with 10K+ users could interfere with your daily job - companies prefer younger 'not so much' experienced people who just follow - most companies have strict ban on any open-source activities outside of job, advanced Githubers are filtered out even before interview.
