HN Theater has aggregated all Hacker News stories and comments that mention Steve Yegge's video "Stevey's Tech Talk S1E6 - Corporate Disease #1: How your DevOps team is killing your company".
Youtube Summary
This is my first episode fully dedicated to a particular and VERY common corporate disease called a "centralized DevOps team". I explain how Google does DevOps, how Amazon does it, the "right" way to do it, and finally, how the centralized team is the worst possible way to do it. I get riled up and rant a lot in this episode.

The theme of his talks (from all of the ones I've listened to in full) has been that blockers/gatekeepers are bad and will cause you to fail. In this video, he explores the dichotomy of approaches between Google (Dev<->SRE) and Amazon ("dev does everything and supports their services forever"). He then talks about all the companies that take on a middle approach with devops that are not as sophisticated as the Google SRE and then explores how this turns into a gigantic drain on productivity.

It is worth listening to, more than his other talks in this new series so far, imo.
