#pyconus I went to a openspace on DevEx (DX), esp in the context of work some idea the attendees mentioned
- a lot of social/organization issues-bosses' fault?
- varies by context-startups have different incentives than big stable companies & cause their devs different pain
- leads to shadow IT, burn out & stress
- monorepo = pain! me: polyrepo= pain!
My idea was shadow IT should be formalized. Help techies help themselves when the org knows it lacks the leadership & skills to create a good DX.

One theme was "Things aren't going to improve until a developer who has lived through the pain is promoted and does something about it"
