    Calling him
    a liar in virtually every post is, I think, unwarranted.

    It detracts from the substance of your posts, and makes
    them, for me at least, thoroughly unpleasant to read.

    You probably needn't read them.

    When the behavior of DDD emulated by HHH is the measure then:

    But since it isn't, your whole argument falls apart.


    Ah a breakthrough.



    And an admission that you are just working on a lie.


    Perhaps you are unaware of how valid deductive inference works.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deductive_reasoning
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

    You can disagree that the premise to my reasoning is true.
    By changing my premise as the basis of your rebuttal you
    commit the strawman error.



    So, how do you get from the DEFINITION of Halting being a behavior of
    the actual machine, to something that can be talked about by a PARTIAL
    emulation with a different final behavior.

    My whole point in this thread is that it is incorrect
    for you to say that my reasoning is invalid on the basis
    that you do not agree with one of my premises.


    The issue isn't that your premise is "incorrect", but it is INVALID, as
    it is based on the redefinition of fundamental words.

    That is not even the way that deductive inference works.

    Deductive inference STARTS with KNOW CORRECT premises, not assumptions.

    You aren't allowed to redefine terms, and any logic based on doing so is
    just invalid.

    You can create a "new" system with some new assumptions or definition,
    but then you need to be honest about doing so.

    Since it seems your definitions do not match those used in the theories
    you are claiming to be refuting, you are just proving that you claims
    are lies.


    For you to state that I am a liar in ridiculously large letters
    on the basis that you disagree with one of my premises shows both
    incorrect reasoning on your part as well as a woefully inadequate
    degree of professional decorum.


    But you ARE a liar, since you claim to be talking about one thing, but
    use meanings incompatible with that thing.


    If you want to talk about some other system basis, you can go ahead and
    do so as I have mentioned many time.

    The key is that to do so, you need to first fully define what you are
    doing, and that means if you start by changing the meaning of some
    terms, EVERYTHING derived from the old meaning needs to be discarded,
    and rederived.

    Something you seem incapable of doing, because you fundamentally don't understand how logic works.

       It is important to stress that the premises
       of an argument do not have actually to be
       true in order for the argument to be valid. https://iep.utm.edu/val-snd/



    Yes, it does not need to be true, (and you like to assume premises that
    are false, and then at the end claim you have proved the premise, but
    that logic doesn't work) but it does need to be a statement with
    coherent meaning.

    A statement based on a definition contradictory to the system you are
    working in is not valid.

    Since, in computation theory, Terminating / Non-Terminating is a
    property only assigned to Programs, and their direct execution, can not
    be assigned as a property to something that is not the equivalent of that.

    Thus, the criteria can NOT be "redefined" to something which it is not.

    You can try to call you HHH a POOP decider if you want. and its criteria
    is what you say, but then you can't say it is correct about the Terminating/Non-Terminating status of the input, as that is a DEFINED
    term. You can try to say that HHH shows that its input doesn't POOP.

    But, then you run into the bigger issue that the definition of deciders
    is that the decide if some fixed define class, and that class isn't a
    funciton of the decider doing the deciding, which your criteria happens
    to be. Thus, your "POOP Problem" even falls outside the domain of
    "deciding" into some strange gray area that you need to show a reason
    for people to want to know about.

    Normally, we want to look at things with purely objective answers, no
    problems that are subjective to the decider. Why should I care if some
    other machine can or can not do something, I want to know if the machine
    I am building will be able to do it, thus the problem needs to be
    objective, and thus the answer only dependent on the input, which you
    have shown your problem is not.

    This just shows how ignorant you are of what you talk about, since you
    don't understand how far you have fallen from the problem you claim to
    be doing.

    It makes my conclusion that Richard is clueless about

    Nope.

    Just shows you don't understand what you are talking about.

    If you want to show someone is incorrect about what they say, you need
    to point out the error in what they say, and not just say they are wrong.

    The problem here is you don't understand the requirements for a
    statement to be a premise, and that is it must be a logical statement in
    the system. It doesn't need to be true, but it needs to be a statement
    that could have a truth value. A "nonsnese" sentence, like one that
    presupposes things contrary to the definitions of the system, are just
    invalid in that system.

    If you introduced it in the light of an alternate or expanded system,
    you might be able to show a validity, but you are not doing that, as
    when that is offered, you insist that your arguement apply to the actual Halting Problem Theory, which is in the base system, not an expanded
    system. And, I don't think you understand what you need to do to even
    try to work in an expanded system, as you need to be able to recognize
    and describe the affects of your change, which has been shown to be
    beyond your intelect.

    The issue isn't that your premise is "incorrect", but it is INVALID, as
    it is based on the redefinition of fundamental words.

    Premises cannot ever be invalid, this is the misuse of a
    technical term of the art proving that you are clueless.

    The common language meaning of "invalid" is not incompatible with the
    meaning of "premise" so a premise can be invalid. The word "invalid"
    is a term of art when used about an inference or a set or sequence of inferences but not when used about a premise.

    But it does tell that if the conclusion is false then at least one
    of the premises is false, too.


    It might not be that a premise is false either, it may only
    seem false from a certain "received view" point of view.

    No, your premise can NEVER be valid, because it is based on


    Software engineering looks at things differently than the
    theory of computation.

    Not on this point.


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

    When HHH is an x86 emulation based termination analyzer
    then each DDD emulated by any HHH that it calls never returns.

    Nope, Even software Engineering treats the funciton HHH as part of the
    program DDD, and termination analysis as looking at properties of the
    whole program, not a partial emulation of it.


    Each of the directly executed HHH emulator/analyzers that returns
    0 correctly reports the above non-terminating behavior of its input.


    No, each of the DDDs that those HHH partialy emulated, by the Software Engineering standards are Terminating Programs, and all the
    determinations made as INCORRECT, as based on incomplete information.

    You are just proving that you don't understand what you are talking
    about, and just blatantly LYING about it.

    "invalid" referring to a premise within the terms-of-the-art of

    One could correctly say that a premise is untrue because it is
    gibberish. One can never correctly say that a premise is invalid within

    Back to the topic: your premise that the measure of the behaviour of DDD
    is the emulation of it done by HHH is wrong.

    Yes. DDD reaches it, so a purported simulator should as well.

    Of course they can be invalid,
    It is a type mismatch error. Premises cannot be invalid.
    So "af;kldsanflksadhtfawieohfnapio" is a valid premise?
    "valid" is a term-of-the-art of deductive logical inference. When

    This is a fallacy of equivocation error.
    So "af;kldsanflksadhtfawieohfnapio" is an invalid premise?
    "invalid" referring to a premise within the terms-of-the-art of
    deductive logical inference is a type mismatch error use of the term.
    One could correctly say that a premise is untrue because it is
    gibberish. One can never correctly say that a premise is invalid
    within the terms-of-the-art.
    Back to the topic: your premise that the measure of the behaviour of
    DDD is the emulation of it done by HHH is wrong.
    I didn't say it exactly that way. Richard thinks that the way you say it makes a difference. I don't take the time to pay any attention to any
    other way to say it than the way that I did say it.
    See above. You should pay attention if it didn't make a difference.

    The only one here besides me that seems to understand the actual
    software engineering aspects of this is Mike.
    Everyone else here seems to have no deeper understanding than
    learn-by-rote from CS textbook.
    I wonder what difference you see in him?

    Premises cannot be invalid.
    Of course they can be invalid,

    It is a type mismatch error.
    Premises cannot be invalid.

    *It is a verified fact that you are clueless about this*
    It is important to stress that the premises of an argument do not
    have actually to be true in order for the argument to be valid.
    https://iep.utm.edu/val-snd/

    That doesn't make the conclusion true.

    But it does tell that if the conclusion is false then at least one
    of the premises is false, too.

    It might not be that a premise is false either, it may only
    seem false from a certain "received view" point of view.

    If the inference is valid and conclusion is false then at least one
    of the premises if false from the same point of view (at least if
    the point of view is logically valid).

    The issue isn't that your premise is "incorrect", but it is INVALID, as >>>> it is based on the redefinition of fundamental words.

    Premises cannot ever be invalid, this is the misuse of a
    technical term of the art proving that you are clueless.

    The common language meaning of "invalid" is not incompatible with the
    meaning of "premise" so a premise can be invalid.

    Within the term of the art of deductive logic premises
    can be true or false and cannot bed valid or invalid.

    The words "valid" and "invalid" are adjectives, so their meaning and definitions depend on what they describe. Books of logic do ot define
    what "valid" or "invalid" mean in general, only some specifiec phrases containig "valid" or "invalid" such as "valid inference". Such definitions
    do not override the usual meaning in other contexts.

    The word "invalid"
    is a term of art when used about an inference or a set or sequence of
    inferences but not when used about a premise.

    Valid applies to the inference steps, not the premises.

    The term of art "valid" applies to inferences. The Common Language
    term "valid" applies to premises because the term of art does not.

    "invalid" referring to a premise within the terms-of-the-art
    of deductive logical inference is a type mismatch error use
    of the term.

    One could correctly say that a premise is untrue because
    it is gibberish. One can never correctly say that a premise
    is invalid within the terms-of-the-art.


    No, untrue isn't the normal term of art, except it tri- (or other
    multi-) valued logics.


    Within ordinary deductive logic there seems to be
    no such thing as an invalid premise. Mathematical
    logic may do this differently.

    Nope, You just don't understand logic. Within Formal Logic there is a
    concept of an invalid premise, being a premise that can not have a
    logical interpretation.

    Part of the problem is you don't seem to understand that words DO have
    multiple meanings, and you need to use the right one for the context.

    Things can be invalid in a number of contexts, and the meaning that
    applies to logical arguments doesn't apply to the contruction of the
    premises that it uses.

    Note, you uncertainty just shows you basic issue, we ARE talking about mathematical logic, as Computation Theory is a domain of Mathematics (as
    is most of Computer Science). That you admit it might be different here,
    but then say it isn't, says you don't understand what you are talking about.


    You are just showing you don't understand the concepts of the logic
    system, likely because you stupidly decided to not learn them.

    Of course they can be invalid,

    It is a type mismatch error.
    Premises cannot be invalid.


    So "af;kldsanflksadhtfawieohfnapio" is a valid premise?

    That doesn't make the conclusion true.

    It might not be that a premise is false either, it may only
    seem false from a certain "received view" point of view.

    No, your premise can NEVER be valid, because it is based on


    Software engineering looks at things differently than the
    theory of computation.

    Not on this point.


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

    When HHH is an x86 emulation based termination analyzer
    then each DDD emulated by any HHH that it calls never returns.

    Nope, Even software Engineering treats the funciton HHH as part of
    the program DDD, and termination analysis as looking at properties
    of the whole program, not a partial emulation of it.

    So if we ask the exact question can DDD emulated by any
    HHH reach its own return statement they would answer the
    counter-factual yes?

    No, you need to de-equivocate the statement, as I have pointed out.


    You can't even show that you even know what the word "equivocate" means.

    Sure I did, I showed the two meaning of the word that you were trying to confuse and how you were tring to use it to lie.


    If you mean the behavior of the DDD, that HHH emulated, then the
    answer is that a proper emulation of that DDD will reach that point,
    but no HHH when emulating its own DDD will, showing that HHH doesn't
    do a "correct emulation"


    You are merely proving your ignorance of software engineering.
    HHH must emulate the instructions that it sees and it not
    allowed to emulate any instructions that it does not see.

    So, since HHH wasn't given the code to HHH as part of the input, the
    input is just incorrect.


    Although HHH does abort the emulation of DDD it cannot simply
    wait for itself to do this. You don't seem to be able to get
    this.

    Right, this makes that task impossible, but doesn't negate the
    definition of the correct answer.


    That your rebuttals are pure bluster utterly bereft of any
    supporting reasoning is clear to all having sufficient
    technical understanding.


    No, your logic is just built on a lack of morals that understands that
    truth is was truth actually is, and you can't change that definition.

    Your whole logic is built on the concept that it is ok to LIE if you
    think you need to,

    Thus, your logic just agrees with the people you claim to be trying to
    refute, the Election Deniers and the Climate Change Deniers, and the
    like, the choose to ignore the convincing evidence, and you are telling
    thme (by your actions, which speak louder than your words) that this is ok,

    Your can't build a truth determining AI on the bases of false premises
    and invalid logic. You are just showing your utter ignorance by
    attempting so,

    Yes. DDD reaches it, so a purported simulator should as well.
    Therefore HHH is not a simulator.


    I tried to tell ChatGPT the same thing several times
    and it would not accept this.
    https://chatgpt.com/share/6709e046-4794-8011-98b7-27066fb49f3e

    Although LLM system are prone to lying: If it told a lie
    there would be an error that could be found in its reasoning.

    Not necessarily in the reasoning. The error could also be in the input
    material.


    Some cases may be too complex to verify. When all of its
    premises are true and it only applies truth preserving
    operations to these premises then its conclusion is
    necessarily correct.

    https://chatgpt.com/share/6709e046-4794-8011-98b7-27066fb49f3e

    When you click on the link and try to explain how HHH must
    be wrong when it reports that DDD does not terminate because
    DDD does terminate it will explain your mistake to you.



    Which I DID as you seem to ignore, and it tries to argue that while DDD
    does in reality Halt, we need to theoretically let HHH give the wrong
    answer becuase we require it to give an answer.

    In other words, you taught the AI the LYING (the giving of an answer
    that is KNOW to be at least possibly incorrect) is ok,

    That is NOT a correct statement in logic.

    Your logic is built on the FALSE premise that the job must be able to be
    done, and thus you invent the LIE that it is ok to LIE if you nee to.

    This just shows that you beleive that lying is ok, when it isn't.

    Of course they can be invalid,
    It is a type mismatch error. Premises cannot be invalid.
    So "af;kldsanflksadhtfawieohfnapio" is a valid premise?
    "valid" is a term-of-the-art of deductive logical inference. >>>>>>>>> When the

    This is a fallacy of equivocation error.
    So "af;kldsanflksadhtfawieohfnapio" is an invalid premise?
    "invalid" referring to a premise within the terms-of-the-art of
    deductive logical inference is a type mismatch error use of the
    term.
    One could correctly say that a premise is untrue because it is
    gibberish. One can never correctly say that a premise is invalid >>>>>>> within

    Back to the topic: your premise that the measure of the behaviour
    of DDD
    is the emulation of it done by HHH is wrong.


    I didn't say it exactly that way. Richard thinks that the
    way you say it makes a difference. I don't take the time
    to pay any attention to any other way to say it than the
    way that I did say it.

    In other words, you ADMIT that you may have said it incorrectly, and
    when I corrected you, your erroneously said I lied, rather than
    accept the correction.


    Not at all. I spend many hundreds of hours making sure
    that the exact way that I say key point is exactly correct.

    Then why do you keep on revising the wording if you spent enough time
    to get it right the first time?


    I keep revising the wording because I am not infallible.
    I can't get it right the first time because I need
    feedback on which words are not fully understood.


    And yet you then insist that you previous wording was also correct,
    since you won't admit it was wrong.

    If you want feedback, then you need to ACCEPT the feedback and
    acknoledge where you were wrong (as not quite right is wrong).

    Your failure to do so just shows you don't actaully understand what
    truth actually is, because you are nothing but a lie in your core.

    You incorrectly paraphrase these words (your equivocation not mine)
    and then form a rebuttal on the basis of the incorrect paraphrase.


    The equivocation was in your exact words.

    I guess you don't know that that word means, and you can't see how you

    It seems you are just too stupid to understand the category errors you
    are making, becuase you CHOSE to be ignorant of the topic.

    Although LLM system are prone to lying: If it told a lie
    there would be an error that could be found in its reasoning.

    Not necessarily in the reasoning. The error could also be in the input
    material.


    Right, like you claim that HHH can correctly answer based on its
    limited knowledge even if that answer is wrong.

    You TOLD IT that lying was ok.

    See new post:
    [ChatGPT refutes the key rebuttal of my work]
    I only told ChatGPT the source-code for DDD
    and the design of HHH.

    You don't want to try to find any mistake that
    it made because you know that you will lose.


    Which I have already pointed out the error in.

    Of course they can be invalid,
    It is a type mismatch error. Premises cannot be invalid.
    So "af;kldsanflksadhtfawieohfnapio" is a valid premise?
    "valid" is a term-of-the-art of deductive logical inference. When
    the subject is deductive logical inference one cannot substitute the >>>>>> common meaning for the term-of-the-art meaning.
    This is a fallacy of equivocation error.
    So "af;kldsanflksadhtfawieohfnapio" is an invalid premise?
    "invalid" referring to a premise within the terms-of-the-art of
    deductive logical inference is a type mismatch error use of the term.
    One could correctly say that a premise is untrue because it is
    gibberish. One can never correctly say that a premise is invalid
    within the terms-of-the-art.
    Back to the topic: your premise that the measure of the behaviour of
    DDD is the emulation of it done by HHH is wrong.
    I didn't say it exactly that way. Richard thinks that the way you say it
    makes a difference. I don't take the time to pay any attention to any
    other way to say it than the way that I did say it.
    See above. You should pay attention if it didn't make a difference.

    The only one here besides me that seems to understand the actual
    software engineering aspects of this is Mike.
    Everyone else here seems to have no deeper understanding than
    learn-by-rote from CS textbook.

    I wonder what difference you see in him?


    I think it's just because occasionally I make some statement that PO interprets as supporting him.
    He is desparate for ANYONE to NOT say that every single thing he says is false. Also there is
    probably an element of PO just trying to goad me into posting again, although I can't see what he
    hopes to gain from that.

    For the record, I don't agree with any of PO's arguments or wider conclusions about "refuting"
    anything. The sort of post I've made that gets PO exited is where I've said that one plausible
    interpretation of one detailed point he said is correct. (Gasp! But that shouldn't really be
    shocking - after all, even a stopped clock is right twice a day! :))

    Also, I don't consider any of those conclusions would be remotely contentious from the perspective
    of anyone else posting here. I would expect they would all agree with the conclusion
    /given the interpretation I set out/, and moreover would /always/ have agreed to it had PO expressed
    it clearly that way from the start.

    Also FTR I don't claim to be a software engineer or computer scientist! I have an IT/programming
    work background and a long time ago studied maths. None of the things that PO claims are "essential
    prerequisites" for understanding his arguments [such as "x86 expertise"] are essential at all - he
    just uses this as an excuse to dismiss valid objections from posters. And obviously PO himself is
    not a computer scientist or software engineer...


    Regards,
    Mike.

    "invalid" referring to a premise within the terms-of-the-art
    of deductive logical inference is a type mismatch error use
    of the term.

    One could correctly say that a premise is untrue because
    it is gibberish. One can never correctly say that a premise
    is invalid within the terms-of-the-art.


    No, untrue isn't the normal term of art, except it tri- (or other
    multi-) valued logics.


    Within ordinary deductive logic there seems to be
    no such thing as an invalid premise. Mathematical
    logic may do this differently.

    Nope, You just don't understand logic. Within Formal Logic there is a
    concept of an invalid premise, being a premise that can not have a
    logical interpretation.

    Part of the problem is you don't seem to understand that words DO have multiple meanings, and you need to use the right one for the context.

    The meaning of invalid is basically the same: a thing is invalid if it is
    not what it is claimed or required to be. The differences in definitions
    are just adaptations to the details of different requirements.

    Yes. DDD reaches it, so a purported simulator should as well.
    Therefore HHH is not a simulator.

    Not necessarily in the reasoning. The error could also be in the input
    material.

    Some cases may be too complex to verify. When all of its
    premises are true and it only applies truth preserving
    operations to these premises then its conclusion is
    necessarily correct.

    As I said, it is prossible that some of the premises are not true.
    That includes both built-in premises and premises from the input
    material.

    Whatever. Your premise is false, so your conclusion at least cannot be

    the meaning of "valid" and not actually explaining why your premise
    should be right. You could have said so much earlier instead of this
    sidetrack.

    "invalid" referring to a premise within the terms-of-the-art
    of deductive logical inference is a type mismatch error use
    of the term.

    One could correctly say that a premise is untrue because
    it is gibberish. One can never correctly say that a premise
    is invalid within the terms-of-the-art.


    No, untrue isn't the normal term of art, except it tri- (or other
    multi-) valued logics.


    Within ordinary deductive logic there seems to be
    no such thing as an invalid premise. Mathematical
    logic may do this differently.

    Nope, You just don't understand logic. Within Formal Logic there is a
    concept of an invalid premise, being a premise that can not have a
    logical interpretation.

    Part of the problem is you don't seem to understand that words DO
    have multiple meanings, and you need to use the right one for the
    context.

    The meaning of invalid is basically the same: a thing is invalid if it is
    not what it is claimed or required to be. The differences in definitions
    are just adaptations to the details of different requirements.


    *Validity and Soundness*
    A deductive argument is said to be valid if and only if it takes a form
    that makes it impossible for the premises to be true and the conclusion nevertheless to be false. Otherwise, a deductive argument is said to be invalid.

    A deductive argument is sound if and only if it is both valid, and all
    of its premises are actually true. Otherwise, a deductive argument is unsound.

    And, your "premise" isn't actually a statement of fact, but in your
    various forms a statement of assumption or a question. Those are not
    validly premises.

    Your presumption breaks the definition of the logic system, so it
    doesn't actually change that definition, unless you let yourself admit
    to moving to a NEW formal system with that new definition, and then you
    can't get back to it to claim you have refuted something in it.

    And it isn't just changing the definition of Halting, unless you are
    also admitting that you new "Halting" isn't actually a property of the
    program described by the input too, as you definition doesn't meet the rquirements of those terms, so you actually need to add a few more
    definitions too so we can understand the actual logic of your POOP system.

    Premises cannot be invalid.
    Of course they can be invalid,

    It is a type mismatch error.
    Premises cannot be invalid.

    *It is a verified fact that you are clueless about this*
    It is important to stress that the premises of an argument do not
    have actually to be true in order for the argument to be valid.
    https://iep.utm.edu/val-snd/

    That doesn't make the conclusion true.

    But it does tell that if the conclusion is false then at least one
    of the premises is false, too.

    It might not be that a premise is false either, it may only
    seem false from a certain "received view" point of view.

    If the inference is valid and conclusion is false then at least one
    of the premises [is] false

    Yes that is a correct use of terminology.
    Premises cannot be invalid, they can only be true or false.

    Attempts to use a premise that has no truth value are occasionally seen.
    Such premises are invalid and the reulsting reasoning is nonsense.
