But think of all the interesting work ahead! :) I kind of welcome the death of the "just wait for hardware to improve" approach to optimization. I find computers interesting because the field is so fresh and you have to figure out so many things on your own and through communication with people that are still alive. Due to the death of Moore's Law, it's going to stay that way for some longer and the end result is going to be more varied.
