I spent 19 years writing video games and it was all in private version control. Don’t judge the seniority of software engineers by their public GitHub contributions.

Where does "Use contractors to deliver major government technology initiatives because we cannot pay market rates for permanent staff and wouldn't be able to manage them anyway" fit in?

"write A LOT of code" is not something a Senior Dev generally does, they're more likely to manage a team of developers doing that, and the code they do write wouldn't likely go to public GitHub repos -- I don't think you understand the position you're actually trying to fill.

Yup, they’ve wasted their time applying to work with someone who is totally incapable of judging a developers skill set and relies on an irrelevant metric. Looks like they’ve dodged a bullet here.

I used to maintain rack. Before March last year I had been working for about 5 years on an operating system with repositories in Gerrit. My GitHub looked almost that empty. Your hiring criteria is a good way to grow a monoculture that feeds risk.

I mean I have a very busy-looking Github graph (if you include private repos) because I use GH as a synchronization tool for my notes. Not much code in there. The code repo host is on my Pi. Just agreeing that yeah pretty colors are a measure of nothing but pretty colors.

What if they use Gitlab? Or their contributions are not public? Either way, contribution graphs mean nothing.

Seeing swathes of people suggest that “ADHD is made up” is wild. Try living in the brain of a person that has ADHD, you wouldn’t last a minute.

I’m honestly still pretty shaken up about this. Ten straight minutes of having someone screaming threats of gendered violence at me, and following me when I tried to get away, is a scary experience! The stranger who stepped in really did make a huge difference.

Genuine gratitude to the person who just stood and waited for the bus with me when they noticed someone was threatening me. There aren’t enough people like that in the world.
