A comment on How to optimize your GitHub for job interviews.
Easy optimization! :p
More on point, some of the tips sound good - eg: pin the things you're proud of.
Less good: activity squares.
If an applicant gives me a github thinking these squares (alone) will save them -- they won't.
A bunch of trash one-line delete/add commits give up the game. I want to see proper drafts, notes, and meaningful change.
One big meaningful change that takes six months to achieve is a better demonstration than idle busywork every day over the same span.
