Don't complain that interviewers haven't read your resume; it is your job to tell the interviewer about the relevant parts of your resume and why they matter for the job you are applying to.

I disagree. If you're going to interview me for an hour, the least you can do for both of us is to take 10 or 15 minutes ahead of time to familiarize yourself with my background.

Again, I disagree. A resume is only a very cursory overview. You can use it as a starting point to probe me about it, to at least determine if I've actually done what it says or if I'm just a buzzword bullshit artist.
IMO it's very shortsighted for someone to ignore a resume before conducting an interview.
The bigger point I'm trying to get at is the following: do not expect the interviewer to discover how brilliant you are on their own. Being smart, hard working, is not enough -- you also need to tell people about it.
I will be more proactive on my next interviews. I did have my github on my resume; I will add more projects to it and get involved in OSS.
