Re: So testing before deploying isn't a "thing" anymore?
DevOps is certainly part of it, but my guess is that the modern "security" mantra is just as much to do with it. People are bombarded (correctly, in context) with exhortations to keep everything up to date and always apply the latest patches, so it becomes second nature to pull the trigger on any update as soon as you hear about it. Failure to do so (Equistrutsup) can be career limiting. No PHB on a sacrificial goat hunt after a security breach is going to be deflected by hearing a patch was still in internal beta.
