First off, computer science and programming are not the same thing. I know this seems a little pedantic, but it matters because you don't actually use rigorous computer science methods in programming all the time. Programmers often learn CS topics because CS fundamentals are a great way to aid thinking about the problems faced in programming. Although I think the way they frame learning CS is elitist, I recommend teachyourselfcs.com for a nice curriculum and things to read. But def learn programming first, whether or not you want to go deeper into CS.
