Zak Stein discusses the issue of seeing the mind as a computerhttp://www.zakstein.org/your-mind-is-not-a-computer-again-with-table/ …
The thing that Zak is pushing back against here is really not what I intend to point to with the phrase "mental code." I mean more like e.g. you get angry when people criticize you a certain way, and when you get angry you start arguing against their criticism, etc.
