That's not a matter of Moore's Law failing, but short-term capacity constraints being hit. It's actually what you want if Moore's Law is to keep going. It's a blessing in disguise for the industry as a whole.

Computing power still has practically flatlined. Memory density is decelerating in its improvement. My point still stands despite the temporary pricing situation.

Single-threaded compute, maybe - but that's increasingly a niche. Highly parallel workloads are still going strong in the latest device nodes, and power use for any given workload is decreasing significantly.
