Nah, not bye karm at all. I realize that's how devops is supposed to work. It's just that I've never seen it work that way IRL.

I suspect that the ideal of devops is only practical in very small companies. Past a certain scale, social factors become at least as important as technical ones in deciding how responsibilities will be divided. It's hard to feel confident about that having never seen "bonafide devops" even being attempted anywhere but on paper, though.
