Have we reached a point where smartphone hardware is basically good enough for almost everyone?

Most people mainly use their phones for messaging, social media, YouTube, photos, and browsing. Even phones from a few years ago can handle all of that easily.

Every ear manufacturers release better phones with faster chips, better cameras, more battery life and so on but how much of a difference do these upgrades actually make in everyday life?

Even in PC gaming, I feel like modern CPUs and GPUs have reached a point where hardware shouldnt be the main limitation anymore

Instead of constantly pushing for more powerful hardware, shouldnt we focus more on software optimization?

Games like the original RollerCoaster Tycoon, famously programmed largely in assembly by Chris Sawyer or the original Doom show just how much can be achieved with efficient programming.

Nowadays in gaming it sometimes feels like developers rely too heavily on technologies like DLSS and FSR instead of properly optimizing their games and i wonder how many demanding modern games could run on mid-range hardware with better optimization.

Especially with AI potentially making software development and optimization easier I believe the next big leap in technology should come from better software rather than better hardware.

And what could we do about it?

I'm not good with computers and anything related so bear with me.

Where I work (small business) we print any invoices/quotes that have been made as a safekeeping of sorts. We have about five years worth of these copies and we recently downsized the office so we don't have as much space for all those physical copies. My sister (prevoiusly worked in another office area) suggested I start scanning those copies onto my laptop (Mac 16GB Memory, 494 GB Storage). My problem is, I'm afraid I will run out of starge soon, especially given that we have been making more invoices/quotes as of late and probably will keep making more going forward. I was looking into external hardrives and ssd card but I'm really not sure what would be best. I'm leaning towards external hard drive but if anyone could give tips/info/opinoins on what you think might be better i would grealty appreciate it! Or also any other solutions you may have.

Thanks guys!
P.S I am planning on keeping physical copies here in the office still but only for about six-12 months (from the date they are created) and then they would get put into the scanner.

Hey pals I'm new here. i have been learning about the api creation and uses while learning this i encounter the term docker and search about it. After that i learn that it provides a virtual environment called a box which help. the code to run easily regardless of the current version if it run on previous version it will run perfectly but I'm not satisfied with this and want to know more. I need help to know more about this and asking for more about it.
