That’s actually pretty cool, to see a public URL with PostgreSQL protocol signifier like that.
Makes me wonder if any developers or DB Architects ever thought of putting their resume in a DB and putting a public read-only postgresql:// URL on their business card :D
If you build the client, and a web page/app and also document how you did it and also show us the code, that'd be much more useful.
Saw this more before I started refusing interviews with the HugeCos, but the strangest flavor of this I've run in to was at an early startup - I suspect dude was acting out an arrogant genius script, hoping to convince people he was one. (It came out as very weird, not in a good way.)
- usually the first person to screen or introduce you won't be a developer or perhaps not even technical, so you've put yourself out of the running early on. I can query it, but many who might be in a position to put you forward might not. If you want to do that though then fair enough, that's your choice.
- reflecting on my current situation where I'm busier than normal right now and I want an easy run on non-development tasks ;)
So I PUT in my resume to the actual IP address, got an interview. Alas they were a strict Windows shop, and at the time I was a Unix Perl dev
So a website resume, like literally every other candidate...
I think you've missed the entire point of the idea... which is to stand out with a different approach
Sure websites are normal, but if you present me with the source and you wrote it (i.e. it's not just a wordpress site) and it's something worth looking at then I can already see that you can do something interesting and of value.
