This is a pretty dumb article.
Like, no shit don't build more infrastructure than you need. If you're a one or two man team you don't need anything more complicated than 'push container here, pull down here' or 'push code here' et. al. Once you get above that having a repeatable process (repeatable by someone besides the person who built it) becomes valuable.
The 'every second spent on infrastructure isn't spent on features' line makes me think I'm going to have to blackmail into working on security updates or paying down technical debt. And the picture you picked is cheeky.
I will agree with this statement, "You need the most simple, least time consuming infrastructure that gets you to that point." But that WILL become more than just 'throw it on a linode instance' after you get some customers and more than 2 people working on whatever uber for dogs project you have going on.
