Yes. Big Time!
When I attended college we did not study: gender studies, black history, feminism, equity and inclusion, etc. I studied composition, arranging, harmony, counterpoint, improvisation, music history, conducting, ear training, guitar, piano, bass guitar, digital systems, analog systems, power supplies, electricity, physics, calculus, English Literature, US History, Ancient History, Fine Arts, Public Speaking, Psychology, Philosophy, Network engineering, machine language, basic programming, pascal programming, C Programming, IP addressing, Subnet masking, OSPF, BGP, RIP, WAN, LAN, Routers, Switches, Firewalls, OSI Model, Access Lists, etc

---

And after acquiring all of this knowledge I worked hard to apply what I had learned. In the case of music, I performed in bands and practiced to continuously improve. In the case of engineering I became a Cisco Certified and Baynetworks Certified Network Engineer and worked for many organizations over a 40 year career i.e. Motorola, Nortel, Cabletron, Bay Networks, Cisco, State of New Hampshire, Vital Networks, Bloomin Brands and Tech Data.

---

Whenever possible, I studied subjects that interested me and that I knew would allow me to earn money and provide for my family. I also studied music, not for the money, but because I love Music and that has always been my dream to earn a degree from Berklee College of Music. Some people say, so what? Who cares? Here is the thing, when we are moments away from death and we reflect upon the life we have lived, what will we think? Will we regret our life because we only did those things that made us money? Or will we have a more balanced appreciation that we utilized our time to not only provide for our family but that we also achieved our dream and thus satisfied our soul? The choice is ours to make and only we, as individuals, can make those choices and be honest enough to own whatever choice we make, and refrain from blaming other people or society, and thus become "victims."

My father once told me the following: "son you've made your bed, and now you must lie in it." Which translated, means that we are responsible for the decisions we make and the consequences of those decisions whether good or bad. Said differently, we must take responsibility for what we think, say and do.

Practical.
When I was a Network Engineer working on my Cisco Certifications I always thought in terms of how I would utilize the information to design, configure and troubleshoot networks.

And whenever I practice music on my guitar, my focus is always on the practical application of what I am learning. It does not make any sense to me to learn a scale or chord or song that I will never perform live, with the exception of my classical studies which I do primarily to increase my fine motor skills and because I enjoy playing classical pieces even though I would probably never perform any of the pieces live. Why? Because live I find myself playing Christian music, Country, Blues, Pop and sometimes Jazz (if I am lucky). Where I live there is very little demand for classical music in the venues I work.

Changing careers is difficult because it takes honest soul searching and the willpower and self discipline to create realistic goals, define objectives and then execute your plan. I can only answer this question based upon my own experience.

---

When I was a teenager I decided to be a full time musician and so I took guitar lessons, practiced, formed a band and graduated from Berklee College of Music. To survive, I lived at home with my parents, taught guitar lessons, performed in bands and worked part time jobs for extra money.

---

In 1979 I rented an apartment, got married and we had our first child. It was at this point that I realized that being a full time musician would NOT pay the bills. So I started reading some self help books and came across a writer/speaker named Zig Ziglar who taught me how to create realistic goals and to prioritize what is important to me. So I created two lists: one list consisted of the careers I was interested in and the other list contained careers I was not interested in. One career that stood out was Electrical Engineering. I was always interested in electricity and electronic devices. My father would fix televisions and radios in the basement and I would frequently watch him and ask him questions.

---

However, the obstacle I had to confront was both financial and time related. Since I had a family and had recently graduated from Berklee but also needed decent employment, I had some difficult decisions to make. And so I found a two year Electronic Engineering program nearby where I could earn my ASEE within a few years and I enrolled. Next, I found employment at a high tech company working 3rd shift as a janitor. Within 2 years I was working 1st shift as a janitor and was cleaning and emptying trash for the CEO and the Vice Presidents. During this time period an electronic technician job became available and I mentioned my interest and my background to senior management. They promised me they would "look into it." Within one week, I had a job interview and was immediately hired to setup, configure and troubleshoot computer/networking equipment in their world wide technical training department. And from there I became a Product Support Engineer and ultimately a Senior Network Engineer with Certifications from Codex, Motorola, Nortel, BayNetworks, Cisco and Cabletron, to name a few. My career lasted 40+ years until retirement 4 years ago.

I hope this information helps you with your own career choice. Remember, it is not easy... but, it is worth the time and effort. Most importantly, NEVER give up!

Although I studied Electronic Engineering, which included both analog and digital, it is also valuable to understand digital logic as a Software Engineer or a Network Engineer. Before retiring, I worked as a Network Engineer for 40 years. During that time I had to learn various systems i.e. routers, switches, firewalls, load balancers, network management, network analyzers, modems, multiplexers, etc. These systems all had operating systems and a user interface that required some understanding of digital logic. After all, if I am taking a statistical reading of network performance or perhaps configuring an access list on a Cisco router or creating a rule within my firewall, I must understand digital logic to comprehend how the variables and instructions I am coding affect the input/output and the intended result/behavior.

Szia. Köszönöm a kérdésed. :)
Több fajta végzettségem is van "informatikai" területen, de próbáltam egy irány felé specializálódni és főleg a hálózatok működésére, a hálózatok és szerverek biztonságára és a nagyvállalati hálózati eszközök (pl. cisco routerek, juniper routerek és switchek) biztonságára és védelmére koncentrálni.
Több középfokú végzettségem is van, amelyek tananyaga nagy részben ezekre épült. Pl.:
-Informatikai hálózattelepítő- és üzemeltető
-IT biztonságtechnikus
És az egyetemen is ezt tanultam mérnökinformatika szakon, de a legjobban talán a CISCO végzettségeimnek örülök (Cisco IT Essentials, Cisco CCNA Discovery), mert ezek során tanultam rengeteget hasznos dolgot a hálózaton folyó kommunikációról.
De a hálózat és szerver biztonságon kívül nagyon szerettem a kriptográfiáról is tanulni.

---

A kérdésed második fele kicsit megmosolyogtatott. :)
Sajnos csak hobbiszinten űzőm a zenélést, mert a munka mellett kevés időm van a hangszereimmel is foglalkozni. De számomra csak az számít zenének (természetesen ez egyéni vélemény - nem szeretnék senkit sem megsérteni), amit emberek komponálnak, emberek írnak, emberek játszanak el (hangszereken). Szerintem egy gép, robot, mesterséges intelligencia, program nem tudna olyan "zenét" készíteni/alkotni, amiben élő érzések lennének felfedezhetők.

---

Megmondom őszintén, nem annyira örülök a mesterséges intelligenciával foglalkozó kutatásoknak és fejlesztéseknek.
Természetesen nem vagyok programozó, nem annyira ástam bele magam a magasszintű programozási nyelvekbe, de azért minimálisan rálátok a dolgokra és én máshogy látom ezt az általános vélekedést.

---

Elnézést a kicsit összecsapott válasz miatt, de hirtelen nagyon megörültem ennek a szakmai kérdésnek.
Szívesen beszélgetek ezekről bárkivel.

Upiła łyk kawy, a słysząc słowa Iris spojrzała na nią.

— Mój Flash... Barry był dobrym kolegom w pracy. Pomagał mi na studiach, chociaż jestem od niego młodsza. Byłam jeszcze "dzieciakiem", gdy czarna materia rozlała się po Central City, była jedną z pierwszych osób, której pomógł Flash. Był cierpliwy, uczył mnei kontroli swoich mocy. W STAR Labs zawsze pachniało okropną kawą i żelkami, które uwielbiał Cisco. Mój świat? Nie był przyjazny dla takich jak ja. Z początku było okay, zwalczaliśmy przestępców, oddawaliśmy ich w ręce ARGUS. Potem... Wszystko się popsuło — Hope upiła kolejny łyk kawy — ARGUS zaczął polowac na nie-ludzi, i to nie tylko na złoczyńców. Gdy zabrakło tych złych, zaczął szukać innych. Niewinnych. Zaczęły się masowe łapanki. Barry jako Speedster ratował ludzi, Cisco wysyłał ich w bezpieczne miejsca. Zaś ja, cóż, podsłuchiwałam to co mówili inni, wiele razy udało mi się dzięki temu zdobyć cenne informacje. W końcu zaczęli szukać nas. Oczywiście nie znali naszych prawdziwych danych. Niestety znaleźli nas. Flash poległ kilka chwil przed tym jak Cisco otworzył wywrę. Ja trafiłam tu i ... Nie wiem co z nimi. Barry nie żyje, nie wiem co z doktor Snow, z doktorem Wellsem czy Cisco. Nie wiem jednak czy chciałabym wrócić na moją Ziemię, nieco się tego obawiam...

Czyli nie zamierzasz kontynuować?
Spoilers ahead.
Barry po pokonaniu Savitara wrócił do Speed Force, by ją ustabilizować i uratować Central City. Ostatecznie drużyna go stamtąd wyciągnęła, ale że spędził tam pół roku, postradał zmysły. Później odzyskał je magicznie dzięki Iris, którą musiał ratować...
Podczas jego powrotu została uwolniona ciemna materia, tworząc jeszcze więcej metaludzi, na których teraz polują. Wszystko okazało się podstępem Thinkera, ale jeszcze o tym nie wiedzą.
Caitlin wróciła do Star Labs, ale Killer Frost czasami przejmuje nad nią kontrolę, ponadto szykuje się jakiś poważniejszy wątek z nią i Amunet Black.
Wychodzi na to, że do ekipy dołączy Ralph Dibny - Elongated Man. Zastanawiałam się, jak przeniosą tę postać na ekran, ale wyszło im naprawdę nieźle. Wally wyjechał, Cecile jest w ciąży, a Cisco spiknął się z Gypsy. ❤
