Well, kdbolt70, being an out of touch boomer
, this may be way off, but those 1s and 0s, amazing as they are, just can't produce the products we depend on to live our lives each day...clothes, car, food, house, etc. Sure CAD, CAM are widely used in manufacturing today, but even that machinery must too be made by some person. Those industrial giants are still needed. And transition to new technology takes capital, lots of capital. Technology may be changing at light speed, but the practical application of it takes time. So, I guess my point is that industry may not be dragging its feet when it comes to advancement as much as you're being impatient and not giving it the necessary time.
I think your change of major was very wise. You're in a great field - hang in there!!
