I don't agree!
I know many programmers, that just write the code.
For example: what problem is solved by the developer when he/she coding the login page?
It just like any other profession, only a few people in the group are able to solve problems

TLDR; You are not only writing instructions for the compiler but for your future self and your fellow programmers. How can you disagree with that?
a summary of the entire article is:
"a programer does not primarily write code; rather, he primarily writes to another programer about his problem solution."
I agree with one: there are good programers and there are bad programers. I don't agree, that bad programers die young ;) Today there are more bad than good programmers.
No offense, but you have some trouble understanding the language. If you re-read it, it say that young programmer'S code die young, not the programmers themselves :)
I agree with this: "communication is more important than writing syntactically correct programs" but article is titled: "what a programmer does" not "what is the most important in a programer job"
* that's highly subjective
