The claim seems to be that some aspects all possible jobs (even building houses) will require at least understanding the premise and possibilities of programming.

There will be more and more jobs that require the basic skills of coding and less and less jobs that require the basic skills of house building. That is what is meant by "left behind". Obviously the best house builders will always have jobs, but the mediocre ones who once were good enough to get basic jobs on most building sites will be in less and less demand.
