Apparently I have no clue what full stack means. I thought it was being able to manage front-end, back-end, and (maybe) devops code.

After this, I think it's a reference to a new type of Medium post whereby an author stacks full the post with Tweets.

Couldn't finish it either. I thought that maybe there would have been commentary after a few of the tweets, but the format is bad.

I did see a few good points (Fullstack helps you understand legacy practices and why things were the way they had been..), but a lot was definitely lost in all the noise.

What a terrible medium with which to convey that message. I'm sorry to see this kind of excuse for a story for the second time this week.

I enjoy ideas. Here are the ones from the tweet storm:

• Full stack law firm: template all contracts, law APIs as core, hyperdeflate legal costs.

• Full stack clinic: mobile EMR/EHR, qself, genomics, telemed. Employ MDs w/ tech skills. Accept insurance, prefer cash subscriptions.

• Full stack architect: put @vannevartech APIs at core of new construction co. Start with unmanned buildings like datacenters to derisk. Ultimate goal = hit enter to build a building w/ drones + prefab.

• Full stack accounting firm: Given bank account, auto prepare it all: tax to diligence to S-1 w/ legal sign off. (@xero could do this).

• Full stack restaurant: Mobile order/pay/reserve, A/B tested dynamic menus w/ supply chain integration, robot prep.

I don't know why people do this. I guess it gives off the feeling of it being very important like they are rushed and HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS RIGHT NOW.

But it's not shareable unless you're going to retweet 40+ tweets (are people doing this?). You have to wait for someone else to collect your thoughts for you.

And at the same time it isn't as permanent as actually taking the time to write a blog post so it's easy to retract later.
