I started to download some private thoughts and notes in a public bare GitHub repo.

I find it a good storage medium for some of my notes, bookmarks, lists. And has benefits such as being able to simply link to my thoughts rather than composing the n-th email about the same subject.

Over time I also want to throw in code i have laying around, host my CV and maybe make it my homepage.

Is this a thing people do? Does this thing have a name?

GHB would be the natural acronym and that would be a terrible idea.

P.S. Thank you HN for being a place where I can ask this question and knowing people get it. I appreciate the feeling of community. P.P.S. If you're reading this and thinking: PURDAH. Call me
