> If you contribute to open source you are more likely to contribute to the company on weekends

I wonder if that assumption is bourne out in reality though?

I'd imagine if someone's OSS contributions are enough of a factor that it's worth hiring them, they're not going to drop it on a whim to work extra hours on the day job.

(Assuming you weed out open source contributions like "I made a todo list app in React but licenced it as MIT" or "I fixed a typo in the docs for NextJS". )
