Tech is just tech. It's what you can do with tech that makes it either cool or not.
In the past, there seemed to be so many cool possibilities. That coolness infected the tech itself, so the tech looked cool too. But now a lot of those possibilities have been explored already. It's not the Wild West anymore, we've got plenty of interstate highways and railways crossing that space, and we've witnessed the not-cool parts as well.
Fortunately, this also helps us see where we might still find coolness. Just do something cool, regardless of tech. Who cares if your cool project doesn't involve any new tech? Who cares which frontend framework is the best when you're building a tree house for your kids, roasting a steak, whipping up a sexy cocktail, putting up a simple HTML form to help neighbors in need, saving the Earth, exploring the seas, the mountains, and the outer space? There's always more coolness out there. :)
