Full stack developer, master of none

In my experience, it is absolutely possible to have someone who is fluent in both front end technologies and backend technologies

There is a quote (don't remember who said it) that more or less says: A specialist is someone that know everyday more about less, until he knows all about nothing. I actually follow my father's advice: Learn enough to do your job some better than the rest and then start learning the next thing. And after 15 years I agree with him, for me is better to know 50% or 60% about 10 things than 90% or 100% about 2 things. (in a couple of topics I would say I am 80% to 85%, but this came out from experience)
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I have always found the fullstack developer role a bit if a myth. I have never come across anyone who was as capable at the front end as they were on the back end. Yes there are people who are good at both, they still tend to be better at one versus the other and not equally good at both. Being creative and logical are different parts of the brain. Creative people tend not be as logical and vice versa.
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare Home | LinkedIn | Google+ | Twitter

And then there is that old saying -- a full stack developer is a developer who copies full source code for his/her projects from Stack Overflow / Stack Exchange. :-\ : I copied this joke from there, too. :

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.
