I used "mine/yours" to denote where the responsibility lies. In a small org you can have the entire IT team troubleshoot an issue. In a large org, that's unfeasible.
I'm willing to help troubleshoot and provide guidance based on my experience, assuming the application developer has performed their due diligence. I have no insight into what their application is expected to do, or its failure modes. I have no input into the coding methods, the test harnesses, the deployment process. But when that shit breaks because the dev doesn't understand the difference between `rm -rf ./*` and `rm -rf /` that's his problem.
Now of course this is an org problem, not a team problem. As in parenting, setting boundaries and responsibilities is the key to success. Too many leaders in IT simply think that "DevOps" will be cheaper and faster and leave it at that.
