I make the distinction between "Programming" and "Development" in my own head. In fact, I try to avoid using the phase programming, I call it coding. i.e. putting the code on the screen with a keyboard. I see Jeff talking more about "development" here - coders get better at coding by writing and reading more code. But there's no point being good at putting code on the screen if it doesn't do the thing your end users need to do.
