    I do not disagree.
    When are you going to understand that it is a deviation of the
    semantics of the x86 language to skip instructions of a halting
    program,

    HHH(DDD) simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD) to repeat the process.

    If it does this an infinite number of times the simulated DDD
    never reaches its own return instruction.

    If it does this a googolplex number of times the simulated DDD
    never reaches its own return instruction.

    Nope, the PARTIAL SIMULATION of DDD never reaches the return
    instruction.


    For N = 0; while N <= googolplex; N++
    N instructions of DDD correctly emulated by HHH[N] never
    reach their own "return" instruction final state.

    ∞ instructions of DDD correctly emulated by HHH[∞] never
    reach their own "return" instruction final state.

    Thus any HHH that takes a wild guess that DDD emulated
    by itself never halts is always correct.


    The SIMULATION of DDD never reaches the return instruction.


    Great! Finally.
    When we understand that the return instruction is halt state
    of DDD then DDD correctly simulated by HHH never halts.

    No, you are just proving you are incapable of learning.

    The PARTIAL simulation of DDD done by HHH doesn't reach the return
    instruction.

    The program DDD, which HHH partially simulated, does reach that return instruction, as does an actually correct simulation of DDD.

    You are just stuck in your lie that a partial simulation is correct and
    snows that actual behavior of the input.

    This just proves that you are just a pathetic ignorant pathological
    lying idiot with a reckless disregard for the truth because you
    slavishly hold to your own lies and ignore the actual facts.

    Sorry, you just seem to be too stupid to reason with,

    with saying that when and infinite number of instructions

    DDD reaches its "return" instruction halt state and halts.

    No, because I admitted that when (and only when) HHH is the version of
    itself that NEVER aborts do we have a DDD that when correctly emulated
    will never halt.

    You seem to forget that because DDD calls HHH, each version of HHH
    creates a different DDD.

    This just shows that you are ignorant of what a program actually is.

    But only if HHH DOES correct emulation that never aborts.

    If HHH does abort and return, then the x86 semantics says that DDD will
    reach its return statement.

    You need to look at the whole program DDD to determine its behavior, and
    thus can't change HHH in the middle.

    You have to start from truths, and not lies. You can't say that HHH does
    a correct emulation when it doesn't, and you have to use the definition
    that apply, and thus, correct simulation means one that doesn't abort.

    It is impossible to have an HHH that both does a correct simulation and
    also aborts. Your assumption of this just proves your logic is flawed.

    Yes, but only for an HHH that corectly emulates its input, which means
    it never aborts, and only for the DDD that calls THAT HHH.

    So, the ONLY DDD you can say by that information to be non-halting is
    the DDD that calls an HHH that actually does that,

    Thus, ANY HHH that is given an input DDD that is built on itself, can
    not use that fact, becuase it isn't true, becuase that HHH doesn't
    correctly emulate its input.


    It seems, you don't understand that a program is all of itself, and you

    Just says lying YOU.

    You got any source for that other than yourself?

    My guess is not.

    The problem is that every one of those emulation is of a *DIFFERENT*
    input, so they don't prove anything together except that each one didn't
    go far enough. (or your input isn't a thing that actually has a halting property so you are starting with a type error).

    This is your problem, you just make up lies and then you believe your

    When each HHH correctly emulates 0 to infinity steps of

    No, there is one, and only one definition, it is a machine that reaches

    Note, *a machine*, not a (partial) emulation of the machine

    And it is the FULL machine, so for DDD, it includes the HHH that it was

    Which proves that the simulation is incorrect.

    I do not disagree.

    HHH(DDD) simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD) to repeat the process. >>>>>>>
    If it does this an infinite number of times the simulated DDD

    If it does this a googolplex number of times the simulated DDD

    Nope, the PARTIAL SIMULATION of DDD never reaches the return
    instruction.


    For N = 0; while N <= googolplex; N++
    N instructions of DDD correctly emulated by HHH[N] never
    reach their own "return" instruction final state.

    ∞ instructions of DDD correctly emulated by HHH[∞] never
    reach their own "return" instruction final state.

    Thus any HHH that takes a wild guess that DDD emulated
    by itself never halts is always correct.


    The SIMULATION of DDD never reaches the return instruction.


    Great! Finally.
    When we understand that the return instruction is halt state
    of DDD then DDD correctly simulated by HHH never halts.

    No, you are just proving you are incapable of learning.

    The PARTIAL simulation of DDD done by HHH doesn't reach the return
    instruction.


    ∞ instructions of DDD correctly emulated by HHH[∞] never

    So you are saying that the infinite one does?


    Dreaming again of HHH that does not abort? Dreams are no substitute for

    We knew that a simulation is only correct if it matches the reality. But
    you seem to think that it is correct that a simulator does not match the reality.

    WHy do you say it is impossible, it just takes forever, just like the non-halting machine it is emulating.

    Yes, it is impossible for a decider to do that, but that is part of the
    point, that always being able to decide if a given input/data
    combination will halt can't be done with a finite computation.

    Nothing says it needs to be able to be done with a finite computation.

    It is just a fact that the mapping of Machine/Input -> Halting Status is
    an uncomputable mapping, just like a lot of others.

    That is part of your problem, because of your confusion of Truth and
    Knowledge, you can't understand unprovable facts.

    void DDD()
    {
      HHH(DDD);
      return;
    }

    That is the right answer to the wrong question.
    I am asking whether or not DDD emulated by HHH
    reaches its "return" instruction.

    But the "DDD emulated by HHH" is the program DDD above, that calls that
    HHH. If that HHH aborts its emulation and returns, the program, that is
    the DDD that was emulated by HHH, does reach the return.

    Your WRONG question is does the PARTIAL emulation by HHH of DDD reach
    that return instruction.

    Since you have made it clear that you goal is to talk about Halt
    Deciding, we need to interprete you ambiquities in that light.


    The correct simulation of a halting program halts. A truism.
    HHH cannot possibly simulate itself correctly.


    So by correctly you must mean that HHH incorrectly
    skips the call from DDD to HHH(DDD).

    No, it must EMULATE that HHH, (not produce the output that HHH
    generates, but emulate the process of getting that output).

    The emulation that the HHH called does is MEANINGLESS to the emulation
    of the call to HHH(DDD) by DDD.


    I am happy that you were not a member of our team when we developed
    simulators to check the design of big detector systems.

    Crash dummy simulators?
    Not x86 emulators.

    We knew that a simulation is only correct if it matches the reality.
    But you seem to think that it is correct that a simulator does not
    match the reality.

    The reality is that DDD does call HHH(DDD) in recursive
    simulation. When you ignore this then you are out-of-touch
    with reality.


    But only FINITE recursion if HHH will ever abort its emulation, and thus
    is not non-halting unless HHH just never answers, so it isn't the
    decider you claim.

    You seem to think one program can do two different things, just proving
    your utter stupidity,

    A complete emulation is after all of the instructions have been

    But by never aborting, it never gives up, and thus is completely correct.

    Yes, it never "finishes" but you can't finish an infinite task, but
    since all countable infinities are the same, it "reaches" "completion"
    at the same point the input does.

    Now, it can't ever give an answer after completing, since that
    completion is at infinity, but that isn't the problem for a correct
    emulator, only for a decider.

    All this shows is that correct (and complete) emulation can not be the

    Nope. A correct emulation of a non-halting input just is non-halting itself.

    There IS a correct answer about halting for EVERY possible input (and
    thus a correct answer for Each version of DDD for each version of HHH).

    The fact that none of the HHH's give that answer doesn't mean the
    question doesn't have one, just that it turns out to be uncomputable, so
    for ever decider there exists an input that it doesn't get correct.

    There is no issue with problems being uncomputable, as it can be shown

    the input because it is aborted.


    Yo keep screwing around trying to twist the meaning of the
    actual words that I say.

    Nope, YOU DO. Emulation has a well defined meaning,. which you don't
    seem to understand. It doesn't "Change Levels". (There is a version
    where it can, but only for UNCONDITIONAL emulation, which HHH doesn't do
    if it can abort, so that can't be the version you are talking about).


    Sorry, you are just proving how ignorant you are of the things you are
    talking about, you are now ADMITTING that you have been lying with your
    use of mis-defined terms.

    You have been told that you don't get to change the meaning of terms and
    stay in the same logic system.

    That is just the technique of your father, the master of lies.

    When each HHH correctly emulates 0 to infinity steps of

    Why do you not think you are lying?


    Anyone that truly understands infinite recursion knows
    that DDD correctly simulated by HHH cannot possibly reach
    its own "return" final state.

    Right, but for every other HHH, which the ones that answer are, it
    isn't a fact.



    Surpisingly (to me) Jeff Barnett set the record straight
    on exactly what halting means.


    No, there is one, and only one definition, it is a machine that reaches >>>> its final state.

    Note, *a machine*, not a (partial) emulation of the machine


    You already know that a complete emulation of a non-ending
    sequence is impossible and you already acknowledged that
    DDD emulated by HHH that never aborts is non-ending.




    WHy do you say it is impossible, it just takes forever,

    A complete emulation is after all of the instructions have been
    emulated. That never happens with any infinite execution.

    No, that is not what the words mean. A complete emulation is one that is continued as long as it can be continued. THe emulation is completed when
    all of its instructions are executed. A complete emulaton that can be continues forever is complete but never completed.

    That is incorrect. A completed task is a task where

    When someone has completed the task of painting there house
    they are all done. They do not have infinite steps left to go.

    Are you being dishonest for trollish reasons?

    Until you find any example where a task that has infinite
    steps remaining can in any way be construed as complete,
    a reasonable person would assume that you are not telling
    the truth.

    If HHH does return an answer then the behavior of DDD is to halt, but
    does so after HHH as aborted it PARTIAL (and thus incorrect) emulation
    of it.

    Does infinite recursion ever reach its own "return"
    instruction halt state?



    All do not matter. Since you modified the HP problem, you know you are not solving
    the halting problem. It is POO Problem.


    It may seem that way if you make sure to not pay enough attention.

    You have admitted that you past two decades are based on a LIAR about

    Sorry, you just outfoxed yourself and proved your work to be worthless.

    If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its input D

    stop running unless aborted then

    H can abort its simulation of D and correctly report that D
    specifies a non-halting sequence of configurations.

    It is certainly the case that DDD correctly simulated by any

    I don't see how any expert in the C language can deny that
    with a straight face. Four have affirmed it. Two of these

    That is the biggest part of the problem, Peter doesn't understand that Professor Sipser wouldn't use his "obviously superior" definition of
    correct simulation, so can't understand how he would disagree with him.

    It all boils down that Peter Olcott has brainwashed himself into
    thinking that his logic MUST be right, and thus he can't look at
    anything that says he is wrong, or possibly imagine it.

    He has created a Cult with one member, himself, and brainwashed himself
    into total obedience.

    The problem is that this only works with the correct definition of
    "Correctly Simulated" but not YOUR definition of Correctly Simulated.

    By the correct defintition, that statement only applies to the one DDD
    built by the one HHH that actually does the actually correct simulation
    and never aborts. And that means that all the other HHHs that do abort,
    can not use that property on the DDD that calls them,

    By YOUR definition, which tries to accept partial simulations as
    "correct", it just isn't true. The Simulation by HHH of DDD, won't reach
    the return statement, but the PROGRAM DDD that the at HHH only partially simulated, will continue past that point and reach the return.

    Your intentional confusion of the partial simulation of DDD by HHH with
    the actual behavior of the full program DDD that the HHH only partially simulated just shows how much of a pathological liar you are.

    So, You are hoisted on your own petard, and proved to be just a
    pathological liar.

    Your claim shows that right definition, that you then refuse to use, or
    shows that the definiton you are using just isn't the right definition.

    Which means you are not allowed to abort it, as the x86 processor
    doesn't stop. (unless you hit what you define as a terminal instruction
    for the program, in which chase the program is "Halting")

    Also, call instruction need to be followed by the actual instruction by instruciton emulation of the code that is called.

    You don't follow either of those, so your emulations are not correct.

    And you just prove yourself to be a pathological liar.

    Which requires HHH to prove that a correct emulaiton of its input does
    not stop.

    You are just proving that you are totally ignorant of EVERYTHING you
    talk about.

    Sorry, if someone says you can do B *IF* you first do A, you need to do
    A before you can do B, and if doing B means you couldn't have done A,
    then you can't do B.

    For instance, When you acheive immortality, you don't need to worry
    about death. Now, if you stop worrying about death before you are
    ACTUALLY immortal, you will tend to do things that get you killed,
    showing you were never immortal in the first place.

    Likewise, fir the decider to be able to see a correct simulation in what
    it does itself, it must be programmed to NEVER abort. If it is
    programmed that way, it can't abort, and if it was programmed to abort,
    it never was doing a correct simulation.

    You set yourself a perfetc trap in the sentence you gave to Professor
    Sipser, becuase your conditional had an "impossible to be true" first
    clause if the decider could do the second, so you set yourself up.

    You really need to talk to yourself about the way you have treated
    yourself and forced you to beleive all these wrong things.

    Remember, SINCE H has been programmed to abort, then a correct
    simulation of D will stop running even if not aborted. Not by H, which
    since it aborts isn't a correct simulation, but by giving this FULL D,
    which will still call that H, to a correct simulator.

    Since a correct simulation of D halts, H can never correctly determine
    that it will not. H just accepted your LIE that H doesn't return, and
    thus you have been proved to be just a stupid liar.

    That is not agreeing that the first half of the Sipser approved criteria is met. I was clearly
    discussing Ben's comments. If I had been agreeing with your claim I would have said it explicitly -
    not that "it's easy enough to say...". I am very confident that if Sipser actually understood how

    Pleas stop misrepresenting my views. [I accept you did not mean to do this, and you have a basic
    inability to comprehend what other posters are actually saying. I'll even accept that I might have
    expressed myself more clearly on this occasion!]

    In fact, why not go further, and stop altogether your fallacious appeals to authority? They do not

    emulated by HHH makes and you know this. Since you are so

    of the x86 language the time is coming where there is zero

    Do you still disagree with Ben on this point?

    I was clearly discussing Ben's comments.  If I had been
    agreeing with your claim I would have said it explicitly - not that
    "it's easy enough to say...".  I am very confident that if Sipser
    actually understood how you were trying to misinterpret his words, he
    would quickly point out that they do not apply in the scenario you propose.


    <MIT Professor Sipser agreed to ONLY these verbatim words 10/13/2022>
    If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its input D
    until H correctly determines that its simulated D would never
    stop running unless aborted then

    H can abort its simulation of D and correctly report that D
    specifies a non-halting sequence of configurations.
    </MIT Professor Sipser agreed to ONLY these verbatim words 10/13/2022>

    void DDD()
    {
    HHH(DDD);
    return;
    }

    I propose that DDD correctly emulated by HHH according to
    the semantics of the x86 language would be required to abort
    its emulation of its finite string input of the x86 machine
    language of DDD.

    Do you think that professor Sipser would disagree with the
    semantics of the x86 language?

    What is every single detail of exactly how you believe
    that Professor Sipser could possibly disagree?

    Pleas stop misrepresenting my views.  [I accept you did not mean to do
    this, and you have a basic inability to comprehend what other posters
    are actually saying.  I'll even accept that I might have expressed
    myself more clearly on this occasion!]

    In fact, why not go further, and stop altogether your fallacious appeals
    to authority?  They do not look good to casual readers as they suggest
    you have no logical reasoning to argue your case.


    Mike.


    I resort to appeals to authority to get people to bother to
    pay attention to the fact that what I say is a semantic
    tautology.

    Most everyone starts with the immutable assumption that I
    must be incorrect and then looks for some excuse to justify
    this assumption.

    Mike.


    So you think that Ben is wrong?

    Why is it important to you whether I think Ben is wrong? I have said that I disagree with you that
    your HHH/DDD scenario satisfies the Sipser criterion.

    That disagreement is based on what I believe Sipser was agreeing to. You have misunderstood/misapplied that agreement. I don't know what Ben thinks Sipser was saying, or whether
    that's even a relevant factor for what Ben said.

    Ben's statement appears to be based on something else - that you have some new criterion for
    "PO-halting", and that if we translate Sipser's quote to a statement about PO-halting and PO-halt
    deciders, then /interpreted like that/ he believes the criterion is, or may well be, met.

    Since I don't believe that you have any such coherent definition of PO-halting, I cannot interpret
    Sipser's statement that way. And if I was convinced you /did/ have such a coherent definition, I
    would /still/ believe that Sipser was referring to conventional halt deciders, and that therefore
    his criterion is not met by your HHH/DDD.

    If you think Ben is supporting your broader claim of some problem with HP then you are wrong there.
    HP is about halting, not PO-halting, and if we interpret Sipser's quote as refering to what would be
    a valid PO-halting decider strategy, then it is nothing to do with halt deciders.

    You'll also appreciate by now that I'm not going to engage in fruitless "arguments" with you about
    your claims. So there is no requirement for me to give "evidence" to refute anything you say - I am
    not arguing or debating with you! I have done that in the past, but it made absolutely no
    difference to anything, other than using up time.


    Mike.

    That is not agreeing that the first half of the Sipser approved
    criteria is met.

    That <is> my own criterion. Whatever else could you mean?
    Do you still disagree with Ben on this point?

    I do not agree that the first half of Sipser's quote has been
    satisfied by your scenario.  You have misunderstood/misapplied what
    Sipser agreed to.


    Mike.


    So you think that Ben is wrong?

    Why is it important to you whether I think Ben is wrong?  I have said
    that I disagree with you that your HHH/DDD scenario satisfies the Sipser criterion.

    I am trying to judge whether your disagreement is honest
    or dishonest. If you don't explain your basis then this
    seems to indicate that you have no actual basis.

    That disagreement is based on what I believe Sipser was agreeing to.

    You didn't even say that that is.

    You have misunderstood/misapplied that agreement.  I don't know what Ben thinks Sipser was saying, or whether that's even a relevant factor for
    what Ben said.

    Ben's statement appears to be based on something else - that you have
    some new criterion for "PO-halting", and that if we translate Sipser's
    quote to a statement about PO-halting and PO-halt deciders, then / interpreted like that/ he believes the criterion is, or may well be, met.


    Nothing like that. it is not at all any vague unspecified thing.
    *Ben agreed this this exact criteria has been met*

    <MIT Professor Sipser agreed to ONLY these verbatim words 10/13/2022>
    If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its input D
    until H correctly determines that its simulated D would never
    stop running unless aborted then

    Since I don't believe that you have any such coherent definition of PO- halting,

    That I keep repeating is over-and-over and you never see it
    seems a little too disingenuous to be called disingenuous.

    I cannot interpret Sipser's statement that way.  And if I was
    convinced you /did/ have such a coherent definition, I would /still/
    believe that Sipser was referring to conventional halt deciders, and
    that therefore his criterion is not met by your HHH/DDD.


    It helps Richard when I repeat the same sentence hundreds of
    times in the same post because he said he has attention deficit
    disorder.

    Would it help you if I repeated this 100 times in the same post?
    <MIT Professor Sipser agreed to ONLY these verbatim words 10/13/2022>
    If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its input D
    until H correctly determines that its simulated D would never
    stop running unless aborted then

    If you think Ben is supporting your broader claim of some problem with
    HP then you are wrong there.

    I am an actual genius, of course I know that. I want to get
    everyone up to speed on what Ben correctly understands so
    that we can move on to this last and final point.

    HP is about halting, not PO-halting, and if
    we interpret Sipser's quote as refering to what would be a valid PO-
    halting decider strategy, then it is nothing to do with halt deciders.


    *THIS IS THE PO HALTING THAT PROFESSOR SIPSER AGREED TO*
    <MIT Professor Sipser agreed to ONLY these verbatim words 10/13/2022>
    If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its input D
    until H correctly determines that its simulated D would never
    stop running unless aborted then

    You'll also appreciate by now that I'm not going to engage in fruitless "arguments" with you about your claims.

    I am merely expecting an honest dialogue.
    It really does not seem to be that lately.

    So there is no requirement for
    me to give "evidence" to refute anything you say

    If you don't do that then there is nothing to show that
    you are not simply using bluster as your entire basis.

    - I am not arguing or
    debating with you!  I have done that in the past, but it made absolutely
    no difference to anything, other than using up time.


    Mike.


    It will continue to work that way for everyone that
    tries to get away with using bluster as their entire basis.

    Only because an HHH that does so never returns to anybody.


    Do you really not understand that recursive emulation <is>
    isomorphic to infinite recursion?


    Not when the emulation is conditional.


    Infinite_Recursion() meets the exact same condition that DDD
    emulated by HHH makes and you know this. Since you are so
    persistently trying to get away contradicting the semantics
    of the x86 language the time is coming where there is zero

    No, it isn't, because he means something different by the words than you do.

    I was clearly discussing Ben's comments.  If I had been agreeing with
    your claim I would have said it explicitly - not that "it's easy
    enough to say...".  I am very confident that if Sipser actually
    understood how you were trying to misinterpret his words, he would
    quickly point out that they do not apply in the scenario you propose.


    <MIT Professor Sipser agreed to ONLY these verbatim words 10/13/2022>
        If simulating halt decider H correctly simulates its input D
        until H correctly determines that its simulated D would never
        stop running unless aborted then

        H can abort its simulation of D and correctly report that D

    void DDD()
    {
      HHH(DDD);
      return;
    }

    I propose that DDD correctly emulated by HHH according to
    the semantics of the x86 language would be required to abort
    its emulation of its finite string input of the x86 machine
    language of DDD.

    But a correct emulation CAN'T abort, so you are just admitting that you
    are lying.


    Do you think that professor Sipser would disagree with the
    semantics of the x86 language?

    He doesn't, but you don't understand them. Once YOU decide that you will
    make *THE* HHH to abort, then the logic you did about HHH correctly
    emulating its input no longer applies, as the HHH that DDD calls IS that
    HHH that you decide would abort, and thus DDD calls an HHH that aborts
    and returns, and thus DDD will Halt.


    What is every single detail of exactly how you believe
    that Professor Sipser could possibly disagree?


    That you HHH that aborts its simulation and return actually does a
    correct simulation of the input to allow it to use the second clause.

    Pleas stop misrepresenting my views.  [I accept you did not mean to do
    this, and you have a basic inability to comprehend what other posters
    are actually saying.  I'll even accept that I might have expressed
    myself more clearly on this occasion!]

    In fact, why not go further, and stop altogether your fallacious
    appeals to authority?  They do not look good to casual readers as they
    suggest you have no logical reasoning to argue your case.


    Mike.


    I resort to appeals to authority to get people to bother to
    pay attention to the fact that what I say is a semantic
    tautology.


    I.E. you admit to using flawed logic to lie.

    For your statement to BE a tautology, the definition require that they
    don't apply to your HHH that answers, and thus you claims that HHH is
    correct, is an admitted LIE. (or proof of your totally stupidity).

    Most everyone starts with the immutable assumption that I
    must be incorrect and then looks for some excuse to justify
    this assumption.


    We don't "assume" you are incorrect, we can see your errors that you
    refuse to look at.

    Things that are BY DEFINITION wrong, but you just lie to yourself about
    what the definitions ARE, because of your self-imposed ignorance of what
    the fields definitions actually are, so you make up your own, which is
    just one form of lying.

    I know what it means. But the inflected form "emulated" does not
    mean what you apparently think it means. You seem to think that
    "DDD emulated by HHH" means whatever HHH thinks DDD means but it
    does not. DDD means what it means whether HHH emulates it or not.

    You already know that a complete emulation of a non-ending
    sequence is impossible and you already acknowledged that
    DDD emulated by HHH that never aborts is non-ending.




    WHy do you say it is impossible, it just takes forever,

    A complete emulation is after all of the instructions have been
    emulated. That never happens with any infinite execution.

    No, that is not what the words mean. A complete emulation is one
    that is
    continued as long as it can be continued. THe emulation is completed
    when
    all of its instructions are executed. A complete emulaton  that can be >>>> continues forever is complete but never completed.

    That is incorrect. A completed task is a task where
    there are no more steps to be accomplished.

    That you agree does not mean that I was wrong (though it certainly
    means that I should check one more time, and I did, and found some
    typos but no substantial error).

    A completed task is one that reaches its halt state.

    void Infinite_Recursion()

      Infinite_Recursion();
      return;
    }

    void DDD()
    {
      HHH(DDD);

    int main()
    {
      HHH(Infinite_Recursion);
      HHH(DDD);

    Neither Infinite_Recursion nor DDD simulated by HHH
    according to the semantics of the x86 language can
    possibly reach their own halt state of "return" thus
    can never be completed tasks.


    Nope,

    The full behavior of the DDD that HHH partially emulates continues past
    the point that HHH aborts its emulation, as defined by the x86 language,
    and then reaches its final state.

    The partial emulation of HHH doesn't reach there, but that isn't a
    correct emulation by the rules you say you are following.
