I'm not claiming nature _is_ computational in nature. But if it isn't we can't productively model nature at all. There is nothing to talk about if phenomenology has no predictable regularities. Pray to the Donald and hope for the best.
You're leaping too far. Nature could be _near_ computational or structurally analogous to computation. If that were the case, then we can productively model nature up to that nearness, within that ball of similarity. Much like the Cheeto Jesus simulates a human. -- ☣ glen ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com
