And therefore...?
A computer does "know" things, a computer knows how to run programs, like a lawnmower knows how to mow a lawn.
What about this question, is a pair of sunglasses "a computer"?? Do sunglasses "process" photons, or communicate anything?
Start with the incident radiation, a waveform $$ \Psi_{(t)} $$, with all possible polarizations (i.e. along any given x-y plane).

me said:What about the entropy in the alphabet of photon polarization?
What's the expectation that each particle, or signal, will be polarized as it impinges on the [outer surface], the input as it were, and either transmitted or reflected/absorbed, by the sunnies?
