When I was starting college twenty years ago, the prevailing sentiment was all programming jobs were going to be outsourced and that getting a CS degree was a fool's errand. I literally had a guidance counselor try to talk me out of it. I did it anyway. When I finished in 2006, there was a real vacuum in the developer space, presumably because everyone got the same advice I did, and jobs were relatively easy to find. By about 2008 there was just no one. We had open developer positions for months with zero applicants. I have seen vacuums and gluts come and go. My advice is just if you are interested, go for it. The market will come around.
