He means that astronomy shouldn't be called telescope science.

And that CS isn't science at all, since we're inventing things rather than using the scientific method to investigate the world

he means computer science is "Algorithmology"

>>54754643
It is not a science since we don't use the scientific method to investigate the world as this one said >>54754778
And it is not about computers, it is about computation and you can use any type of machine or similar object for that purpose.
You don't call biology, microscope science or math calculation science.
It is not bound by the type of instrument you use, we could do computer science without computers. That's why they call it informatics in the civilized world.

It's an incredible lecture series. Would recommend to anyone interested in CS. Pretty entertaining even if you're already well-versed in the subject too.

You know he actually changed his position on this, he actually does consider it a science for most people now. They poke around in systems they don't fully understand, and just tweak stuff until they get what they want. He wrote that when MIT stopped teaching LISP from first principles and switched to practical python

Most of the series is fine. Bad but good enough to be readable (assuming your player is upscaling correctly). Sometimes the audio goes to sit though

Fuck I fucking hate you white men conservative xenophobic homophobic misogynistic shitlords thinking people don't actually have feeling and preferences. You have to respect our pronouns. I'm a black transgender (pansexual to male) transexual (male to female) and non-binary. You need to learn to respect us and get used to it. The proper pronoun to describe this person is "they." NOT HIM!!

>It is not a science since we don't use the scientific method to investigate the world

So then, what is bar science, exactly?
>>
It doesn't use the scientific method.

In a science, if "functional programming" fails to produce results and "object oriented programming" does, scientists would want to understand why this happens.

Scientific hypotheses have to be testable. For programming languages, the test is developing software.

In a non-science like CS, you can invent whatever formalism you want and then call people stupid for not using it.

Would it also be accurate to call it Information Science?
>>
>>54755544
No, because it's not science. We don't use the scientific method. Theoretical CS is basically just math, invented by humans
