It's a good thing that Silicon Valley = The World, because otherwise half this post wouldn't have made any sense.
HN's "Who's hiring" thread, yeah that works. And I think the amount of hiring managers in the Netherlands who know Github is below 10. Sure, some years may fix this, but right now, the advice in this blog is painfully regionally specific.
Funnily enough I'm based in London and a lot of the advice is UK-centric. Granted Github has limited exposure outside of the US & the UK but I am not versed on Dutch standards so I'm afraid I would struggle to offer advice!
