Pseudoscience in Informatics

Name: Anonymous 2012-01-12 3:27

I often see individuals bashing mathematics as being nonscientific on /prog/.

How do you respond to the fact that branches which suffer from even worse practices exist within the field?

Like Bioinformatics ( heuristics and data mining data mining applied to something which is supposed to be an 4^3 wide instruction set )

or A.I. ( attempting of a invalid cybernetic transformation, hence the definition of a machine )

you'll have to either show some concrete infinities in our physics (such as reals),
Wouldn't that mean we can do hypercomputation just fine?
