A comment on Fastly Outage. Parent comment
What i think this syntactically invalid sentence is trying to say is:
People need to be blamed, and held responsible for actions taken.
Why do people need to be blamed? Why do we need to make someone the scapegoat? What does being held responsible look like?
Let say we find some sacrificial engineer to pin this on:
* does the downtime magically disappear?
* does the engineer suffering (say losing his job or whatever) make your downtime meaningful? You'll recoup your revenue somehow from it?
* does the fact that there's a scapegoat mean that everyone else at fastly is perfect and it's ok to keep using them?
