You seem to use the word digital in a simplistic way like how artists use it. The digital is a logic, numeric-based system with terminating computational functions. All such machines if you call them computers should be isomorphic to the logic of a regular-rule-bound system.

In case you haven't noticed, this is the boundary I have navigated for a good forty years, so nothing I do here is "simplistic". If you don't stop your attempts at splaining and actually try to offer a counter position, you go on the block.

No it was you who was splaining and here is an instance, 'I have worked on this front for 40 years.' Yes good I also wrote my dissertation on these issues 20+ years ago. . Either we begin to look at the fundamental problems calmly or it would be just talking past each other.

You offering a definition of what you think computing is, and hold it up as the only valid one against a mountain of counterevidence. There is nothing to discuss, really. Have a good day.

Typical dogmatist who doesn't even have the courage to debate.

Debate? That's scholasticism, not mathematics

Mathematics is neither physics nor computation. Plus, where did you think modern mathematics come from?

why don't you anglophones just use "numerical" instead of "digital" or at least specify one with the other? digital is a very effective term, but it's highly technical and poorly scientific, once left the electronic network model...

Good point. Sorry

I did not mean to say you're using it wrong... imo the term is highly embedded with English language, and that's its strength, but I think that makes the word very difficult to use in systematic reflective discourses (i.e. philosophy).

Great point, it also leads to colloquial usage.
