• I am using AI because...

    From Mr Flibble@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jun 8 18:31:36 2025
    This halting problem "debate" isn't going to be resolved as both "sides"
    are deeply entrenched and will not back down or attempt to meet in the
    middle, most of the vitriol consists of ad hominems mostly from Damon and Olcott.

    For this reason I can no longer be arsed expending any effort contributing myself so I will let AI (whose responses I do review) do so instead.

    Yet you do not dare try and find even a single

    Really? Then why how was I able to get your own AI prompt to admit that
    it was in error when you got it to say you were correct?

    Why have I been able to point to hundereds of detailed errors, NONE of
    which have you pointed out an problem in my statement based on something factual or sourced from something reliable (only your own claims)

    You concept of proof is to make broad unsubstantiated claims, that are
    divorced from the factual definitions of the system.

    That is why you make only vague references to sources, and then need to paraphrase them, as you don't know what the sources actually mean.

    sorry, you are just proving your stupidity.

    It feels bad getting into a battle of wits with you, since you are just unarmed.

    You never did this.

    Sure I did, You willing to put a a million dollars that I didn't?

    You have repeatedly stated that a simulation
    was incorrect because a non-terminating input
    was not completely simulated. You were not
    even aware that no complete simulation exists
    for non-terminating inputs.

    No, "Complete" simulations of non-terminating inputs exist, they are
    just infinite in length, and thus can't be "listed" or "enumerated".

    Lots of things exist in that manner. Things like the Natural Numbers, or
    the Real Numbers.


    Why have I been able to point to hundereds of detailed errors, NONE of
    which have you pointed out an problem in my statement based on
    something factual or sourced from something reliable (only your own
    claims)


    You have never pointed out any errors.
    Each time it was always only your own mistake.

    Sure I have, again, want to put up a million dollars, that I can't show
    you a time I pointed out an error or yours?


    Try and show me your best shot at pointing out
    any mistake and I will show you where you are wrong.

    How about the fact that since you have stipulated that HHH and DDD are
    not programs, but DDD only includes the code of the C function DDD, that
    it is impossible to correctly simulate "DDD" (the input) per the
    definitons of the x86 language past the call HHH instructions.

    A few points to make sure you take into account in your "rebuttal"

    Since "the input" is defined to a specific set of byte codes" the use of anything outside that set of byte codes is no longer simulating "the input"

    The DEFINITION of every x86 instuctions, other than halts, includes, as
    part of its definition, as part of the general definition of the
    processor, if not explicitly in the instruction (as done for jump and
    calls) that the next instruction WILL be executed at the location
    pointed to by the PC counter.


    Go ahead, show how you can correctly simulate that call instruction when
    the data needed to complete it (by simulating the next instruction)
    isn't available.


    You concept of proof is to make broad unsubstantiated claims, that are
    divorced from the factual definitions of the system.


    My concept of proof is self-evidence.

    Which isn't proof, and thus you admit you can't prove things.

    Just because it seems evident to YOU, doesn't make it true.

    In epistemology (theory of knowledge), a self-evident
    proposition is a proposition that is known to be true
    by understanding its meaning without proof... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-evidence

    Which isn't a property of Formal Logic.


    This does not work when people are simply too dumb
    to understand.

    No, it doesn't work in system where "meaning" comes STRICTLY by the axiomization of the system. The only thing "self-evident" "by meaning"
    ARE the axioms, everything else is "by proof"

    All you are doing is showing you don't even understand the broad field
    you are talking about.


    That is why you make only vague references to sources, and then need
    to paraphrase them, as you don't know what the sources actually mean.


    That you could not understand what I said does
    not indicate that I made any mistake.

    Sure it does, a source not cited isn't a source. Saying "any competent programmer knows" isn't citing a source, it is just hearsay.




    sorry, you are just proving your stupidity.

    It feels bad getting into a battle of wits with you, since you are
    just unarmed.

    Something a liar would say.
    date/time stamp and quote or you are a liar.


    So, I guess you are admitting you are too chicken to put up.


    Note, you show your true colors by triming where you asked for the
    contents of one of the challanges, which I gave you.

    I guess you KNOW that you can't answer the error and are just using your
    normal diversion to get out of it.

    Of course, if you ever do try to force the bluff and take it to court,
    you are just admsssing so much evidence against you that a summary
    judgement against you is almost certain.

    Sorry, but you are just proving that you ARE nothing but that ignorant
    liar that doesn't care about truth, but just wants to try to make a name
    for yourself.

    It has now been more than a day, where you have responded to numerous
    other messages.

    You only reply was a deflection.

    It will be considered an admission by you that you admit that you HAVE
    had errors pointed out, and that you haven't been able to respond to them.

    The fact that you have clearly stated that you proof is based on major
    category errors, by the fact that the theory in question is a theory
    about "programs", yet you stipulate that you decider and input are not
    program, because if they are, then you logic doesn't work, as your
    decider needs definite behavior, and the input is based on a definite
    version of the decider.

    All you have done is prove that you reject the basic rules of logic but
    claim to be able to change them to make your statements.

    Sorry, the world doesn't work that way, and my guess is some point soon
    you are going to come to a terrible awakening when that is made clear to
    you.
