You don't start off having to know everything.
You start off picking off small problems that don't require deep knowledge of an entire stack.
Then you have to know everything: there's no question a full-stack dev has to know a stupid amount of stuff. I've drawn a line at all but the basics of devops; it's not something I'm interested in, and even though it's important, it won't be where I focus much attention.
