I have heard a candidate for a software engineer position talk with straight face about his current workplace's "devops team" and handing off software to them. So maybe it's getting that way.



If this were reddit this is where I would post a "The force doesn't work that way!" memes.

I can't stand it when people ask about a "devops team". That's not devops then! That just means your sysadmins can code too.

Now, if they are asking about a devops software team, that's a different story.


Yep. What it means is like "agile" did, it's reaching the "old wine in a new bottle" stage, with less actual hard work of changing the way people work for the better, and more easy slapping a new trendy label on existing practices.
