And so you agree you will win the dollars by predicting you will have
one or the other experiences. But this is really all what is necessary
for progressing in the reasoning I propose and which shows the comp hyp
being enough non trivial as to makes physics secondary to computer
science. And this in a way shared by many on this list which is that
reality could emerge from some ASSA, or other RSSA statistics on
"observer-moments".

OK. (if I understand, but i don't see the point).

Be careful (remember my mood). Actually this statement is rather clear.
But you are still describing a third person view on ... your future
first person view. Now I have no problem with that because you are just
giving me some work to do. Indeed I can derive from your statement that
you will accept the following more precise description.
"I will be having two 1st person experiences confirming my "0 v 1" bet,
one with 0 and the other one with 1. I have been wise not to predict "0
& 1" because the 0/1 are put for first person experience (as asked in
the question) and both duplicates lives alternatives experiences.
All right? If you agree, you grasp the notion of first person comp
indeterminacy.
(and if you want we can proceed; but even at this stage I think just a
little bit of modal logic could help, I have a growing post on that).

Because I intend to derive "time" and space from the computation done
by the UD. The "place" will belongs in a infinite set of UD-generated
computations.
Now about "erasing memory", as I said to George Levy a long time ago, I
find them a little bit premature and dangerous (giving the very high
counter-intuitiveness of the subject already without memory erasure).
But they are quite important because their are probably the best comp
candidate to fuse computations and histories.
