As someone with a 20 year career in programming, I'd say it's more or less all a dead field; the future is in retrocomputing. Go ahead and major in history.
As someone who had to build systems to replace legacy systems, you're not wrong. Hell even that was almost a decade ago now. Give it 5 more decades and someone will probably be replacing my legacy systems with yet more "how many more bandaids until the beep boop money machines come back on and I don't get more angry phone calls" fixes for their boss who just leans on shit and yaks about golf all day.
