This is a fantastic post, and your thoughts on how the do-it-all developer only work on small scale projects need to be shouted into the ears of any executive considering merging their development and operations team, often as disguised way of supplementing resource shortages on the ops side.

I do take issue with the portrayal of “traditional development”. There are certainly software engineering principles covering all the missing pieces in that picture. Even the most basic set of use cases with an operator as one of the actors would fill up that side of the picture quite quickly.

A newly minted programmer leaving a 4-month coding class is not a traditional developer by any means, or at least didn’t use to be.
