Bruno,
I use computation in the STANDARD sense of computer science.
Computer programs compute results. Reality computes the current
state of the universe.
So reality is a computer program? That seems like digital physics
thesis.
It's very simple, straightforward and standard usage.
Digital physics is self-contradictory (unless reifying matter in a
finite unique physical reality, and this in a quite ad hoc way).
If reality computes everything, then comp is true, but then by UDA,
reality cannot compute. So reality cannot compute (with or without
assuming comp).
Indeed, just the arithmetical reality extends far beyond the
computable. That is part of the subject of theoretical computer
science: the degrees of non computability or non solvability.
