>Long term, I hope it'll be enough to list coursera etc. courses, books you read and a github link on your resume.

It sounds nice but problem with this is that you get so many people who join courses just to show off certificates and end up learning almost nothing. If you include books too, there will be popular posts like "books you should read and have on your CV!". This totally spoils the idea of reading and learning for its own sake which is what education should be all about.
