@mcc I've argued before that "computer science" ought to be broken up, with the pieces given to philosophy, numerical mathematics, and engineering. The Tautological Algorithm and Zen Sort clearly belong in philosophy. 😈

@AlgoCompSynth @mcc That kind of dichotomy stumps me. I was taught mathematics from an engineering perspective. My brainy mathematics oriented daughter thinks of mathematics in terms of sets of numbers, theorems, and proofs. Engineering equations bore her. I wish I'd had her math perspective in my youth. But, it may have been beyond my grasp.
