Full stack means a specific kind of developer, though. I would never call myself "full stack", even though the "stack" I work on goes from the kernel all the way to UI code.

That's my "stack" too, which is why I once called myself "real full stack developer" once in a conversation. It was intended partially as a pun on the "full stack" term, but I said it only half-joking.
