Thinking implies a progression of time. So perhaps it is equally
important to define time.
In the computationlist theory, the digital discrete sequence 0, s(0),
s(s(0)) ... is enough, notably to named the steps of execution of the
UD (UD*), or of the programs execution we can see in UD*, or
equivalently in a tiny subset of arithmetical truth.

No you are entirely incorrect, that is not worth mentioning. There
is no difference between arithmetic and simulated arithmetic and no
difference between thinking and imitation thinking. �

And when a employee of a fast food restaurant says "THANK YOU" to
the 47'th customer for the 47'th time in the last hour he puts about
as much thought into the message as the trash can did.
