Thanks, it look interesting. I have already seen some error in logic  
there. Also, "it from bit", in the interpretation (digital  
physicalism) of the author is decidable, indeed is false, given that  
digital physics entails comp, and comp entails the falsity of digital  
physics.
But I see many interesting notes, but also some misconception in  
logic. More asap, but my day will be more and more heavy loaded, so  
thanks for being patient. Tell your friend to study UDA and AUDA, as  
he should see quickly what is wrong in some of his preliminary points.
