Just had a recruiter turn me down because my GitHub commit frequency wasn't high enough, I asked for a link to the employers GitHub account, "sorry, they don't contribute to open source projects".

    That's such bullshit. Most open source work is done outside work hours in unpaid time. So to say, unless you invested a bunch of unpaid time into open source projects we won't hire you is total bullshit IMO

    We are all just numbers to these robots. I don't use GitHub for my projects. My host has its own git repo that all my code flows through. My clients would NEVER want their code flowing through GitHub, public or private.

    Same kind of stupid fucking shit also seen while applying internship, they already ask for grades that only the top 5 of colleges can score, and after that they speak of such pure bullshit.
    I will just take a octopus next time and throw it on their faces, if they speak such crap and pretend like I'm trying to remove the octopus and in the process cut the tongues of their mouths, no suspects and the victim is speechless, literally.
