Completely agree. This is "how to become a programmer with a general knowledge". Far, far away from a Computer Scientist.

I can't see any of the "basics" stuff like calculus, algebra...

BUT, it is truth that most of the enterprises are fine having a programmer rather than a Computer Scientist... Probably most of them can't even tell the difference.

Most enterprises would much _rather_ a programmer than a Computer Scientist. They, by and large, want and need implementation of either existing architectures (Programmers) or existing concepts applied to a take on an explored problem domain (Software Engineers). Research into net-new patterns (Computer Science) is often the domain of large corporate R+D departments and a few niche startups, not the bulk of industry.

I'd go so far as to say that almost zero jobs need Computer Scientists.

to be fair, it says software engineer not computer scientist. But I don't really think it's a good basis for that. It really does look like a "cheat sheet for interviews"
