As Rolf Landauer said "Computation is physical",
Yes, Landauer is a major proponents of that idea. If that is true,
then computationalism is false.
I don't see that. I think it just requires a broader meaning of
"physical" (which isn't well defined anyway).
You have to broaden "physical" so that 0 and his successors are
physical object. But then the term "physical" has no more meaning at
all, imo.
