Perhaps whoever down-voted me can tell me where I was wrong so I can learn?

- mattdeboard 14y agoYour definition is the only really meaningful and defensible definition. But that's not the point. The point is that even though there is a "correct" definition, the term is still useless because people use it to mean a million different things. And that won't change... the toothpaste is out of the tube, as they say.
- pekk 14y agoI didn't downvote you, but "meaning is use" - and there is an established, context-specific social practice around the phrase "full stack developer" independent of how it makes you feel. In the relevant context, the word "stack" doesn't refer to the call stack. If you want to go off on a cranky tangent every time the phrase is used, you have the right do that, but things go more smoothly when you apply some charity in interpretation and take things the way you know they are meant.
