I think it is mostly just adopting. To new hardware, new demands, new plattforms. There is maybe some progress on a academic level, but I don't think we progress fast on the fundamental level, on how to write better code. There are slight improvements here and there, but it is mostly just different. And more complex. Or rather new tools are needed because everything gets more complicated (some say bloated). That being said, the new thing that I am learning is general purpose GPU compute. That is quite new and useful (but hard). But it is an improvement.
