Yes I agree, a vast difference between basic accounting and a CPA. I am not a CPA, but I do understand accounting.

That doesn't change the fact that I'd be wary of any accountant writing a blog post on how to write good quality code for production. Are there accountants out there who can do a good job of that? Absolutely. Are there many more accountants who would do a poor job of that? My guess is also yes.
