A predetermined function over time whose impact on the real world is the employment of physical resources as described above. You're missing the point.
you are changing your argument with each post you make.
Creating something out of nothing means that you are not bound to the use of any physical resources.
you aren't. you are bound by a function over time/algorithm, and by the fact that everyone agrees to that function by downloading the same bitcoin client.
there are no resources involved in bitcoin creation, aka out of thin air.
by employing resources, you can only make it so that YOU get a bitcoin, instead of someone else.
