"Devops" can be considered a philosophy, a methodology, or a movement. It doesn't mean "ops monkey smart enough to code."

Referring to a human as a "devop" is equivalent to calling someone an "agile".

It seems like a reasonable shortening of "devops engineer." If we can call people "quants," I don't suppose "devop" is all that much sillier.

Actually it usually means a dev who knows ops stuff as well.

Realistically its just a job title that means paying technical architects less money...
