Well, I put it because I thought it would be relevant, but apparently it wasn't. How could I know beforehand what will not be relevant or interesting to whoever will read my cv?


Well, if your github had nothing interesting why would you think it was relevant?


When I said "nothing interesting", it means that I don't have an open source project people are using, and I am not a massive contributor. However, I have some ELisp code to help me write Python a bit faster, a contribution in the Rust language - I dabbed with Rust once, stumbled into a problem, asked on IRC and they told me "oh, it's a bug, add this one line here and push it" - and couple of other stuff, so while it doesn't make me a top coder, I hope it proves I am someone curious and it would give the interviewer extra stuff to ask ("I see you that played with Rust, what do you think of it?"), just as the presentation said, but sadly that didn't happen.
