Hahahha maybe.

But maybe it's a good thing we don't have to churn butter anymore, right? Improvements in technology mean that we don't have to deal with the low level stuff that's been done a million times before, allowing us to focus on high level stuff that nobody's done.

Maybe in the general case (i.e, most software development), but in the special case (i.e, high performance computing, which this falls under), more powerful hardware begets more powerful software.

It also means we can do more with less. =)
