Hi Steven, Your not, I do get where you are coming from. Being a 'web' developer from 91 on, (that was yet another paradigm shift, started programming in the late 70's) I have seen development becoming more easy and complex at the same time. Things that where impossible only a decade ago, are now just a few lines of code. While the pace seems high, if you are around long enough, you will see that patterns go in and out of fashion, and come back with a slight twist. Everything is constantly improving. Not as fast as it seems tough. The real new inventions need time to settle into our mindsets.
I like to think of myself as full-stack. The last time I checked I seemed very much alive :-D. The meaning of the word has changed a bit over time. By now, it pretty much means, you are a versatile person, that will find his way around in every layer of the stack, and has enough knowledge to push forward an entire product. Both front and back end and all other stuff that's needed to make apps work. It does however not mean that he knows everything about everything anymore. That has become simply impossible. He knows how to find the resources that are needed on each layer tough. In our line of work, there is not too much time to consolidate, although on a certain point you will start seeing the pace with different eyes. Also, learn to pick the tools that suit you, and stick with those. Do not try to go with everything that's new and shiny. A large part of it will fade quickly. Some things stick around for a longer time. Do you realize angular is over 5 years old? That's pretty mature. And I suspect version 2 will stick around even longer, but again, no crystal boll...
