That’s funny given all the symbols, statements, and functions.

It depends on what you do. If you are working on top of the stack building web pages or user interfaces, he's mostly right. If you are further down in the stack developing interfaces or function libraries, less so. And if you are programming at the base you must live and breathe higher math. I spend my time in the middle writing stored procedures and data mining functions. The math is frequently challenging.
