There is no replacement for dedication to the craft.

I mean, there is hella replacement for craft: industrial precision. Like you can write fucking fast code now without having to ASM that shit. And no one is building a revolutionary microprocessor with his hands. That shit is going in the machine.
The machine cannot replace craftsmanship. Soldering transistors and writing small, fast code are two completely unrelated activities.
