    Do you really think people could make programmable microchips and processing units before they figured out physics?

      No, but mechanical computers existed before microchips. They just weren’t terribly useful

        Once I get my mechanical computer to run crysis we’ll see who’s laughing.

        What kind of argumentation is this? Are we talking about mechanical engineering or computer science? Please don’t bent reality the way it fits your shape.

            I know what mechanical computers are. But computer scientists will not be building them 'nor program them, it’s not what computer science is about when you go to a university to study it.

              I presented a hypothetical, and showed how it could work. You’re the one insisting that there’s only one way to do things. You’re being Western Centric.

              I’m well aware of what you study when you study computer science, I majored in that and Music Ed at Transylvania University.
