I kinda agree with the author if you do your software development purely with programming language. It would otherwise be call hacking or prototyping, and this is not exclusive to C or C++. This could also happen wiht Java, python or <insert your favourite language here>.

With software engineering, there are a plethora of other tasks and checks that needs to be done before releasing it into wild. ie requirements engineering, verification, reviews etc.
