it should also be 'fear of computer science'.
the computer scientists are bringing out fundamental new approaches that affect everything.
examples:
the open-source approach being used in other fields
the use of computerized proofs eg in the four color theorem when formal proofs were not forthcoming. proof by existence is a new model in mathematics
my explanation for why the distributed system of hinduism was more robust than the centralized system of buddhism when mohammedans attacked
no wonder the flat-earth types like witzel and thapar are so foul-mouthed in attacking computing types. they are seeing the death throes of their creationist fantasies.
