We are definitely spoiled on modern systems. But imo, this convenience is unreasonably costly. It is baffling to me that modern devices with ghz clock rates can hardly render guis and websites responsibly. At the moment everyone swoons over the new M1 processors. Not too long and those performance gains will also be lost to costly abstractions and badly written code. I'm not very optimistic this will change in the near future.

The amount of cycles lost on the equivalent of paper pushing is incredible these days. Source: my own raytracer vs microsoft teams and 90% of all other electron apps or otherwise very javascript heavy frontends.
