No need to optimize in assembly anymore

Given that optimizing in assembly for one processor will have no effect (or
negative effect) on a different processor it seems that low level
optimization is becoming a waste of time. As processors become more
sophisticated and diverse in the way they execute code this trend is likely
to continue.

Anyone agree?
