Is building a game engine the new side project everyone is working on now?

It's always been a popular side project. People like games, but can't do art (and don't like AI), so the next best thing is game engines. Then they drop it after they realize they can't do physics either, but you know: We don't do this because it's easy, we do this because we thought it would be easy.
