As usual theres a relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/1831/. I think the level of control programmers have over their domain naturally gives rise to that sort of overconfidence. You need to remember that computer systems are built on human made abstractions to human standards and follow human defined logic. DNA is not code, it's just a molecule that reacts with stuff, as are all the other molecules. They exist as they are and are their own system that needs to be understood, we did not create that system. Chemistry and probability and time did. |
