I think this is just the pendulum swinging back and forth. you'll get these cycles, as first, we innovate on basic tech, and then polish it and tighten it up, before innovating on basic tech again. Basic tech is still there. I think it's hard to know where to look, because like I said elsewhere, things that significantly change our lives in the future start off looking like toys, and not all toys end up significantly changing our lives. It only seems like we have no basic tech because we're either not looking there, or we're writing it off.
