Automation, cloud-services and increasing SaaS and pay-as-you-sip models will end the integration model of IT services. By 2020 I predict IT programming jobs will be half of what they are today

I don't think that would happen. What I believe will happen is that you will have us moving back to a COM / DLL type of world, only that the various small components are available as SaaS objects on a cloud.
The integrators job will be to choose the best fit components to do the job. So, less coding
There will be top end programmers who create the components and many good business analysts who connect these together.
It will be kind of like the auto industry where you buy various parts and you connect them together

Sounds wonderful in principle, but as a tech who is heavy into script writing, I can’t see a magic bullet in it. It still has to be crafted carefully as a whole by someone who understands it well enough.

Maybe this is why I have people in India calling me constantly trying to scam me in every way possible. It's become an epidemic lately - "Microsoft support" calling to help me rid my computer of viruses that they somehow magically detected, some unpronounceable company claiming it can lower the interest rate on my credit card, even though he couldn't tell me which of my cards he was calling about (he told me that was a stupid question and that I was wasting his time, then hung up), and on and on and on.
They've also figured out how to spoof local phone exchanges to make it look like the calls are local. So we outsourced these telecom jobs and now they're using what they learned to commit rampant fraud against Americans. I've gotten to the point where I seriously wonder: Why is it that third worlders and first world minorities seem so highly predisposed to engaging in fraud, violent crime, and even terrorism as a routine way of life?

Could this be a front person who has lined up some rubes who are eager to sell anything, not caring what it is?

I’ve gotten some of these calls from ‘concerned Microsoft Support’. The give away is the background noise as the call is coming from a ‘boiler room’.

The article actually refers to over 600,000 jobs lost—though the title says 60,000.

Like Nigeria, they end up with a trained workforce with few job prospects...

Good. Hope they choke on it.

Custom code always has the potential to be better than once-size-fits-all generic modules. This raises two issues for management: 1. If you are going to custom code, does your team have the expertise and motivation to reach that high potential? Or is your team satisfied with a mediocre result no better than the generic product off the shelf? 2. Above your team, does management, and above that, do industry value the best system? Or are they satisfied with mediocrity? Example. Healthcare IT is currently the single biggest part of IT applications. It is totally driven by bureaucratic decisions of CMS (Medicare, Medicaid, ACA). CMS is a slow bureaucracy. Its standards are built on 1990s technology concepts that are mostly irrational reactions to the mainframe. The goal of CMS is for the bureaucracy to control everything. Allow no creativity. Allow no competition to see who can build a better mousetrap.

I was watching a tutorial on YouTube yesterday. The hands displayed were those of an Indian; however, his voice had been synthesized by a computer! I thought it funny, and I understood every word...

India.
A corrupt third-world cesspool of smelly, unwashed, diseased and soulless criminals. Anything you want done there can’t be done above board and honestly, and Tata always gets it cut (the real government).

Yup. . .when a whats-a-futz connects with a who-yon-yakker and it all makes sense.

DNA? Nah, it's cultural. If they were raised as normal people with Christian values, they would be ok. But, for example, being raised in mainland Chinese culture imparts into you the "virtues" of lying, scamming and cheating in any way that makes you a buck or helps you climb social ladders.
