> If you do make it public and add it to a resume

I didn’t say anything about adding a link to a resume. This thread has hints of people thinking “I’ll just look up their GitHub if they don’t include it” and other threads make that explicit.

> You dismissed that because a one sentence readme isn't needed on a public side project.

I don’t think that’s what I said. I was saying that tracking all the things one might be judged for is unreasonable, not that having a readme is unreasonable.
