    Can you decide random numbers? Say a black box in isolation. You ask it
    to run a process, when you wait for a signal that the process is done.
    Well, do you get a signal or not? Say the black box takes some results
    from a TRNG. Sometimes it halts after some random time. Sometimes it
    does not halt. How does your system account for the black box?

    You must be new around here. Nobody in Particular has posted here since
    at least 2014.

    That being said, you guy are making way too much sense refuting the Church-Turing thesis.

    So, I had not thought about this very much since maybe 5th Grade. You
    are doing good work posting comments on the nature of "undecidability"
    within computing, a thesis outline presented by Nick.

    The section 1 "the halting problem" should clearly define what the
    expression "halting problem" means.

    That said, the halting problem is a famous mathematical proof showing
    that no general program can ever tell whether any arbitrary computer
    program will finish running or loop forever.

    Another problem for AI is trained intelligent robots who get into a
    negative loop with a simple command: "Open the door, Hal."

    it exist as a hypothetical problem, constructed from a hypothetical
    decider, that presents a real limit to turing machine computability,
    but does not exist in the actual enumeration of turing machines, and
    does not limit our ability to decide on any given machine, as we are

    Can you decide random numbers? Say a black box in isolation. You ask
    it to run a process, when you wait for a signal that the process is
    done. Well, do you get a signal or not? Say the black box takes some
    results from a TRNG. Sometimes it halts after some random time.
    Sometimes it does not halt. How does your system account for the black
    box?

    the turing machine model does not allow for randomness and is _strictly_ deterministic

    it exist as a hypothetical problem, constructed from a hypothetical
    decider, that presents a real limit to turing machine computability, but does not exist in the actual enumeration of turing machines,

    In the world of computing theory everything is hypothetical. The section
    1 does not call anything hypothetical. It merely constructs "und" from
    "halts" already specified and "loop" that is not specified.

    Although "und" is called "the halting problem" it obviously isn't any
    problem, just a specification of a computation.

    and does not limit our ability to decide on any given machine, as we
    are not an addressable computing machine.

    That is not relevant to this discussion about the section 1. Even if
    the section 1 is only a prelude to the main topic it should not give
    the impression that the author cannot write anyting worth of reading.

    the turing machine model does not allow for randomness and is _strictly_ deterministic

    The section 1 is about the halting problem. You may discuss
    partial and
    total solutions of the problem in the same section or elsewhere. But >>>>>>> it is important to point out about "und" that its halting is
    determinable. Otherwise a reader could be confused or get the

    und as specified in -o1 does not even exist, an argument which

    The section 1 says otherwise: the words "can be constructed" mean that >>>>> it does exist.


    it exist as a hypothetical problem, constructed from a hypothetical
    decider, that presents a real limit to turing machine computability,
    but does not exist in the actual enumeration of turing machines, and
    does not limit our ability to decide on any given machine, as we are
    not an addressable computing machine.

    that is the point of the entire paper, and it takes 26 pages to
    explain why. i'm not changing that specific wording there based on
    confusion that will not resolve until you actually read the paper dud


    Can you decide random numbers? Say a black box in isolation. You ask
    it to run a process, when you wait for a signal that the process is
    done. Well, do you get a signal or not? Say the black box takes some
    results from a TRNG. Sometimes it halts after some random time.
    Sometimes it does not halt. How does your system account for the
    black box?

    the turing machine model does not allow for randomness and is
    _strictly_ deterministic

    it's kinda nuts u don't know a rather basic fact of computing theory,
    but judging from the quality of ur comments over the year i've been
    posting it doesn't surprise me


    Say the guy who can solve the halting problem? ;^o Actually, are you
    trying to do that?

    i did resolve the halting problem paradox as being a total limit to all computing. it still limits turing computation, but it does not limit a
    more fundamental form that i propose via the thot experiment of -o7

    i also reduced it's significance withing turing machine computation, as
    i show it does not actually prevent us from computably enumerating _all_ computable sequences. see my revised section -o6

    3 -> 72

    The following algorithm correctly maps this function:

    int bar(int x) {
    -a-a-a-a if (x==1) return 457;
    -a-a-a-a if (x==2) return 26;
    -a-a-a-a if (x==3) return 72;
    -a-a-a-a if (x==4) return 983;
    -a-a-a-a if (x==5) return 235;
    -a-a-a-a return 0;
    }

    while ur arguing that actually

    int foo(int x) {
    -a-a if (x==1) return 0;
    -a-a if (x==2) return 0;
    -a-a if (x==3) return 0;
    -a-a if (x==4) return 0;
    -a-a if (x==5) return 0;
    -a-a return 0;
    }

    correctly maps the function

    No, I'm arguing that:

    int foo(int x) {
    -a-a-a if (x==1) return 0;
    -a-a-a if (x==2) return 26;
    -a-a-a if (x==3) return 0;
    -a-a-a if (x==4) return 0;
    -a-a-a if (x==5) return 0;
    -a-a-a return 0;
    }

    Correctly maps the function for the input 2.

    And it has been proved that any attempt to produce an algorithm that
    can tell if any arbitrary algorithm with a given input will halt will
    fail to produce such an algorithm.

    idk why u keep repeating -o1 understanding at me, i understand turing's
    proof better than he did

    and the fault there is that's only proven for any given machine, not
    any given algorithm. those are not actually the same thing, as
    infinite machines compute any give algorithm, and we only need to
    correctly decide on one of those machines to decide it for the
    algorithm. this is discussed in -o5

    They are one in the same.-a A turing machine is essentially a
    manifestation of an algorithm.-a Until you can show an algorithm that is
    not a turing machine, or vice versa, Church-Turning stands.

    that's what -o7 is on dud! maybe u should read the fking paper instead of dicking about in -o1!

    it ultimately discusses how to compute both a total diagonal and total anti-diagonal across the enumeration of turing computable sequences, a computation which obviously cannot be done with a turing machine, as per turing's original proof on the matter. and demonstrated that is a 26
    page paper which shall not be able to condense into a damn usenet post





    i will not debate this further, ur attempt at a point is a useless
    bastardization of computing theory



    i'm not gunna waste my time debating that, it's clearly not so

    and if that's kinda of argument ur going to use as an excuse to
    not read my paper, ur clearly not worth my time

    i cannot wait to use people like u when i give talks in the future >>>>>> on much a fucking shitshow this experience has been

    You mean people where you don't bother to read the one or two
    sentences they've written and conclude the opposite of what they said? >>>>>
    You won't be taken seriously if you display such a low level of
    reading comprehension.

    you don't even read what u write:

    -a-a| It absolutely is a decider.-a It maps all inputs to
    -a-a| either 0 or 1, which is what defines a decider.

    u don't even mention the any notion of correctness in ur definition
    there

    Correctness depends on what mathematical function it's mapping.-a A
    decider that takes an integer as input always returns 1 is a correct
    decider for a mathematical mapping that maps all integers to 1.

    ur asserting all machines that halt with binary output from some input
    are deciders, and i see with some googling that such is consensus
    theory on the matter. well i reject that claim as banal and useless

    It's not a claim.-a It's a definition.-a And if you reject it, you are essentially lying by redefining terms.

    says the dud trying to declare a constant return as actually a "partial halting decider". u can't make this shit up!



    and it certainly isn't a halting decider, partial or otherwise.

    It is a partial halt decider that correctly decides all halting machines.

    i reject that definition because it has lead you to the confusion of you trying to claim that a constant return function is a partial halting
    decider, when no meaningful information on the semantics can be
    extracted from the return, as it will mix in non-halting machine in with
    that return, so no meaningful decision was produced

    saying something is a "correct decision" must be judged across the
    entirety of the output, not just cherry-picked examples

    why? because i cannot computably use a constant return function to
    decide whether a machine halts or not, across as partial subset or otherwise

    (m) -> {
    if (halts(m))
    m()
    else
    print "m does not halt!"
    }

    if halts() is just the constant return function () -> 1 then all input machines will be run, and the if statement trying to function as a guard against non-halting input is functionally useless

    the requirement for a specific decider is there is a way to extract information about what it is supposed to be decided upon. a constant
    return function decides all possible input strings, which is trivially decidable with a constant return function,

    it is _not_ a halting decider, partial or otherwise.

    anyways, i cover types of classifiers, machine that classify an input
    machine into a semantic set via a binary output, in -o5.2

    read the paper cause this discussion is over until u do regardless of
    how much more misinformed bs u try to post

    no computably useful information about the semantics of the input can
    be extracted from the output of a constant function, so therefore it
    does not function as a halting decider







    i will not debate this further because it's not worth my time

    not an algorithm. This also means it takes input other than a machine description and the input to that machine, which are the only allowed
    inputs to a halt decider.

    Anything you're doing regarding the address of a function is simply
    adding another input which means you're changing the question.

    ur asserting all machines that halt with binary output from some
    input are deciders, and i see with some googling that such is
    consensus theory on the matter. well i reject that claim as banal and
    useless

    It's not a claim.-a It's a definition.-a And if you reject it, you are
    essentially lying by redefining terms.

    says the dud trying to declare a constant return as actually a "partial halting decider". u can't make this shit up!

    It fits the definition.




    and it certainly isn't a halting decider, partial or otherwise.

    It is a partial halt decider that correctly decides all halting machines.

    i reject that definition

    In other words you intend to lie by redefining terms.

    because it has lead you to the confusion of you
    trying to claim that a constant return function is a partial halting decider, when no meaningful information on the semantics can be
    extracted from the return, as it will mix in non-halting machine in with that return, so no meaningful decision was produced

    Which is no different from any other partial halt decider.


    saying something is a "correct decision" must be judged across the
    entirety of the output, not just cherry-picked examples

    In other words, any partial halt decider is simply not correct.


    why? because i cannot computably use a constant return function to
    decide whether a machine halts or not, across as partial subset or
    otherwise

    -a(m) -> {
    -a-a if (halts(m))
    -a-a-a-a m()
    -a-a else
    -a-a-a-a print "m does not halt!"
    -a}

    if halts() is just the constant return function () -> 1 then all input machines will be run, and the if statement trying to function as a guard against non-halting input is functionally useless

    So such a function wouldn't work in that specific instance. And in fact
    no function will.


    the requirement for a specific decider is there is a way to extract information about what it is supposed to be decided upon. a constant
    return function decides all possible input strings, which is trivially decidable with a constant return function,

    it is _not_ a halting decider, partial or otherwise.

    Any algorithm that takes a description of an algorithm and its input and returns either 0 or 1 for all inputs is by definition a partial halt
    decider.

    the halting program.

    and that statement has no bearing on the correctness of my arguments,
    u brain-rotted boomer


    You cannot predict a random number and you cannot solve the halting
    problem. Sigh.

    You're quite the disappointment, dart200. We'll have to ask some of the other guys to get this done.

    You came here to buckle up with chuckle fucks led by a dart200?

    So, I've been working on this since he came online. It kind of looks
    like at this point he's hooked on plain text. Not sure about the
    context. He may e working from home. We don't really know for sure. He's
    also known as by his nick name - Nick.

    He's kind of secretive and not really very talkative like the others. YMMV.

    -o7.6 - truly begging a question

    So what the human agent is recording becomes an input.-a And therefore
    whatever uses it is disqualified from being a halt decider, partial
    or otherwise.

    the human agent produces a response back to the terminal machine, yes

    but he also computes things on the side that persist between terminal
    interactions, and it's in this side record where he can compute things
    outside the turing machine model

    And that side record is what disqualifies it from being a halt decider.

    the knowledge is still computable, even if it can't be used in total
    within the turing machine model




    Also:

    "We will start by amending the basic turing machine into a terminal
    machine"

    Which means you no longer have a Turing machine so nothing that
    follows applies to Turing machines.

    _duh_ ... the total solution to turing machine halting can only be
    computed from _outside_ the turing machine model

    Which is already well-known and therefore uninteresting.

    not by a mechanically realizable form it isn't, oracle machines can be
    made real, and are largely useless beyond describing something that
    realizable computing is surely not.



    this does not it make not computation, as it still a method that can
    produce a sequence, including both a true diagonal across turing
    computable numbers and the true anti-diagonal across turing computable
    sequences, both of which are outside the scope of turing computation

    It makes it a computation that has input in addition to a machine description and that machine's input, and therefore disqualified from
    being a halt decider.

    like i already said, this is addressed in -o7.6


    Which is the same mistake PO made.

    u do know that begging the question is a fallacy, eh?

    In other words you intend to lie by redefining terms.

    The lack of response to this is telling.

    In other words, any partial halt decider is simply not correct.


    why? because i cannot computably use a constant return function to >>>>>> decide whether a machine halts or not, across as partial subset or >>>>>> otherwise

    -a-a}

    the a halting partial recognizer (from -o5.2) will prevent any non-
    terminating function from being run and therefore functionally act
    as a guard

    So will a constant function that returns 0.-a Or (for example) a
    function that doesn't find a "return" instruction among the first N
    instructions.

    So it's not particularly interesting.

    as demonstrated by -o6, for any given possible output/turing-computable
    sequence there _exists_ a machine that both halts, and is within the
    set decidable by partial recognizer halts()

    which makes it incredibly useful, and beyond anything previously
    acknowledged within the theory of computing





    the requirement for a specific decider is there is a way to
    extract information about what it is supposed to be decided upon. >>>>>> a constant return function decides all possible input strings,
    which is trivially decidable with a constant return function,

    it is _not_ a halting decider, partial or otherwise.

    Any algorithm that takes a description of an algorithm and its
    input and returns either 0 or 1 for all inputs is by definition a
    partial halt decider.

    i'm not going to argue against something so stupid

    Arguing against definitions would be stupid.

    twisting my words is also stupid

    It is computable in the turing machine model from a machine

    not that ur going to read it, but this argument is responded to in -o7.5 "addressable simulation vs objective mechanics"

    You think you found something turing computable but you haven't. You
    just have the equivalent of a turing machine / algorithm that takes an additional input that a halt decider doesn't have.







    Also:

    "We will start by amending the basic turing machine into a

    Which means you no longer have a Turing machine so nothing that

    _duh_ ... the total solution to turing machine halting can only be

    And you addressed it by using extra input disqualifying it from being

    The agent's side record is not outside Turing computability. In the

    This side record is effectively a global variable, and the contents of

    What you're doing is no different from putting the fixed set of steps
    that a human is doing in a separate function and putting the human's

    the knowledge is still computable, even if it can't be used in

    It is computable in the turing machine model from a machine

    not a halt decider, partial or otherwise.

    not that ur going to read it, but this argument is responded to in
    -o7.5 "addressable simulation vs objective mechanics"

    You think you found something turing computable but you haven't.-a You >>>
    u haven't read my paper so u don't know what i've argued

    just have the equivalent of a turing machine / algorithm that takes
    an additional input that a halt decider doesn't have.

    i won't be convinced until you tell me what the example from -o7.5 my
    paper, sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr), is supposed to output...

    You still don't understand.

    The agent's side record is not outside Turing computability.-a In the
    Turing model it is *part of the input*, i.e. it would be somewhere on
    tape.

    This side record is effectively a global variable, and the contents of
    any global variable are an input to the algorithm.

    Just because this side record isn't passed as a parameter to
    sim_cir_sr or und_cir_sr doesn't mean it's not an input.

    What you're doing is no different from putting the fixed set of steps
    that a human is doing in a separate function and putting the human's
    side record in a global variable.

    The fact that the human's side record can't be accessed by the machine
    being analyzed doesn't make it non-Turing computable.

    again, u ramble on without giving me what sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) is
    supposed to output, and worse u think u can explain what's going on
    without even reading the passage explaining what that is. nuts.

    As derived from above, if the steps a human performs is replaced with a function with the the reads/writes to the side record going into a
    global variable, and that global variable is set to the contents of the human's side record prior to the given call, it will behave the same as
    if und_cir_sr is called. Because that's what algorithms do: give the
    same results for the same input.

    You don't seem to understand how you're modeling the algorithm abstraction.

    like i already said, this is addressed in -o7.6

    And you addressed it by using extra input disqualifying it from

    u do know that begging the question is a fallacy, eh?

    Identifying a fundamental mistake is not a fallacy.

    ur not identifying a mistake, ur just continually begging the
    question that the unproven church-turing thesis is in fact true,

    when u do not in fact have a proof showing that it is true,

    while i'm presenting a proof that is it _not_ true

    You've proven no such thing.-a The only thing you've proved is that
    you don't understand that your "model" is simply an algorithm /
    turning machine with an extra inputs (i.e. the what the human
    records and the addresses of functions) that isn't allowed for a
    halt decider.

    ur still just begging the question

    Nope, just pointing out that you don't understand that you made the
    same mistake that King Crank made.

    and if that mistake is you continually begging that the ct-thesis is
    correct ...

    No, I'm pointing out that you didn't refute it because you didn't do

    No, I'm pointing out that you didn't refute it because you didn't do
    what you think you did.

    suppose sim_cir_sr() successfully simulates and outputs the agent's
    decision process for the side record...

    so how does the simulated agent within sim_cir_sr respond to the input
    of und_cir_sr?

    0) does the simulated agent simulate sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) recursively without ever reaching a decision, such that sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) never returns, and thereby und_cir_sr will recurse infinitely without output
    (making it circular)

    1) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circular, so sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => true, causing und_cir_sr to output an infinite sequence (making it circle-free)

    2) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circle-free, so sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => false, causing und_cir_sr to halt (making it circular)

    these all exist as possible sim_cir_sr machines in the total machines enumeration, which one are you asserting correctly simulates the
    idealized agent acting externally to the turing machine model?

    ur still just begging the question


    Which, again, is the same mistake PO made.

    and ur trying to reinforce it with a fallacy by association


    Nope, just pointing out that you don't understand that you made the
    same mistake that King Crank made.

    and if that mistake is you continually begging that the ct-thesis is
    correct ...

    No, I'm pointing out that you didn't refute it because you didn't do
    what you think you did.

    suppose sim_cir_sr() successfully simulates and outputs the agent's
    decision process for the side record...

    so how does the simulated agent within sim_cir_sr respond to the input
    of und_cir_sr?

    0) does the simulated agent simulate sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) recursively without ever reaching a decision, such that sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) never returns, and thereby und_cir_sr will recurse infinitely without output (making it circular)

    1) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circular, so sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => true, causing und_cir_sr to output an infinite sequence (making it circle-free)

    2) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circle-free, so sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => false, causing und_cir_sr to halt (making it circular)

    these all exist as possible sim_cir_sr machines in the total machines enumeration, which one are you asserting correctly simulates the
    idealized agent acting externally to the turing machine model?


    None of those simulate und_cir_sr correctly because they aren't setting
    the side record to the same value that it has when und_cir_sr is
    originally called, meaning it doesn't actually simulate "itself".

    That means your abstraction is broken and you don't actually have an algorithm.

    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be converted to
    a function which read/writes a global variable, and that global variable
    need to be set to the same value it had when und_cir_sr was first called.

    u haven't read my paper so u don't know what i've argued

    just have the equivalent of a turing machine / algorithm that
    takes an additional input that a halt decider doesn't have.

    i won't be convinced until you tell me what the example from -o7.5 >>>>>> my paper, sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr), is supposed to output...

    You still don't understand.

    The agent's side record is not outside Turing computability.-a In
    the Turing model it is *part of the input*, i.e. it would be
    somewhere on tape.

    This side record is effectively a global variable, and the contents >>>>> of any global variable are an input to the algorithm.

    Just because this side record isn't passed as a parameter to
    sim_cir_sr or und_cir_sr doesn't mean it's not an input.

    What you're doing is no different from putting the fixed set of
    steps that a human is doing in a separate function and putting the
    human's side record in a global variable.

    The fact that the human's side record can't be accessed by the
    machine being analyzed doesn't make it non-Turing computable.

    again, u ramble on without giving me what sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) is
    supposed to output, and worse u think u can explain what's going on
    without even reading the passage explaining what that is. nuts.

    As derived from above, if the steps a human performs is replaced with
    a function with the the reads/writes to the side record going into a
    global variable, and that global variable is set to the contents of
    the human's side record prior to the given call, it will behave the
    same as if und_cir_sr is called.-a Because that's what algorithms do:
    give the same results for the same input.

    You don't seem to understand how you're modeling the algorithm
    abstraction.

    u don't seem to understand how ur begging the question of the ct-
    thesis being true... eh?

    No, you don't seem to understand that you haven't show that you're

    turing computability


    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be converted to
    a function which read/writes a global variable, and that global variable need to be set to the same value it had when und_cir_sr was first called.

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they just have a
    tape, and if the value is output to the tape anywhere, it can be picked
    out by a simulation and contradicted by a paradox

    there is _no_ way to simulate the general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines within turing machines. that ability only
    exists outside the turing machine model,

    and therefore the church-turing thesis (which has never been proven) is
    false!

    first called.

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they just have a tape, and if the value is output to the tape anywhere, it can be picked
    out by a simulation and contradicted by a paradox


    Strawman. "it can be picked out" means you're talking about changing
    the code which means you're no longer talking about the same machine.


    there is _no_ way to simulate the general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines within turing machines.

    There are no "paradoxical" turing machine in the way you're thinking of
    them. Once you change the instructions, you no longer have the same
    turing machine.

    For example, these are not the same machine:

    int foo(int x)
    {
    return x + 1;
    }

    int foo(int x)
    {
    return x + 2;
    }


    But these are the same machine:


    int foo(int x)
    {
    return x + 1;
    }

    int bar(int y)
    {
    return y + 1;
    }

    This side record is effectively a global variable, and the
    contents of any global variable are an input to the algorithm.

    Just because this side record isn't passed as a parameter to
    sim_cir_sr or und_cir_sr doesn't mean it's not an input.

    The fact that the human's side record can't be accessed by the

    is supposed to output, and worse u think u can explain what's

    As derived from above, if the steps a human performs is replaced

    Which, again, is the same mistake PO made.

    and ur trying to reinforce it with a fallacy by association


    Nope, just pointing out that you don't understand that you made >>>>>>> the same mistake that King Crank made.

    and if that mistake is you continually begging that the ct-thesis >>>>>> is correct ...

    No, I'm pointing out that you didn't refute it because you didn't
    do what you think you did.

    suppose sim_cir_sr() successfully simulates and outputs the agent's
    decision process for the side record...

    so how does the simulated agent within sim_cir_sr respond to the
    input of und_cir_sr?

    0) does the simulated agent simulate sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr)
    recursively without ever reaching a decision, such that
    sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) never returns, and thereby und_cir_sr will
    recurse infinitely without output (making it circular)

    1) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circular, so
    sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => true, causing und_cir_sr to output an
    infinite sequence (making it circle-free)

    2) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circle-free,
    so sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => false, causing und_cir_sr to halt
    (making it circular)

    these all exist as possible sim_cir_sr machines in the total
    machines enumeration, which one are you asserting correctly
    simulates the idealized agent acting externally to the turing
    machine model?


    None of those simulate und_cir_sr correctly because they aren't
    setting the side record to the same value that it has when und_cir_sr
    is originally called, meaning it doesn't actually simulate "itself".

    That means your abstraction is broken and you don't actually have an
    algorithm.

    in the case of 0) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as circular

    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_0a) when und_cir_sr(side_record_value_0) is called.


    in the case of 1) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as
    circle-free


    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_1a) when und_cir_sr(side_record_value_1) is called.

    in the case of 2) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as circular


    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2a) when und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2) is called.


    how so i know that's possible ... because we just did it u moron! u
    can't pin and contradict the general ability to determine what a
    particular machine does, you can only pin addressable models like
    turing machine. yes we _are_ doing a form of computing because it
    _can_ be used to produce sequences with confidence, including some
    outside that of turing computability

    So what you really did is break the rules of a deterministic algorithm
    by using the side record and by not simulating what you though you were simulating.

    No deterministic algorithm, no refutation of church-turing

    the algorithm is detailed in -o7.6 ... which u still haven't even opened




    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be converted
    to a function which read/writes a global variable, and that global
    variable need to be set to the same value it had when und_cir_sr was
    first called.

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they just have
    a tape, and if the value is output to the tape anywhere, it can be
    picked out by a simulation and contradicted by a paradox

    Strawman.-a "it can be picked out" means you're talking about changing
    the code which means you're no longer talking about the same machine.

    that's incorrect. reading values from the tape during a step of the computation does not change the machine which is being simulated ...

    and if a machine is simulating itself, like in the case an
    undecidability paradox within computing, then this can be used to pick
    out values behind any form of data encapsulation that you might suggest
    to hide data away from a paradox. there's no where to hide output dud.
    there's no "global variable" that might prevent a paradox from being formed

    there is _no_ way to simulate a general ability to decide on paradoxical turing machines, from within turing machines

    unless like what ... u lost track what turing's proof was even about
    cause ur so confused in asserting that i'm wrong???



    there is _no_ way to simulate the general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines within turing machines.

    There are no "paradoxical" turing machine in the way you're thinking of them.-a Once you change the instructions, you no longer have the same
    turing machine.

    in the case of 2) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as circular >>>

    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2a) when
    und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2) is called.


    how so i know that's possible ... because we just did it u moron! u
    can't pin and contradict the general ability to determine what a
    particular machine does, you can only pin addressable models like
    turing machine. yes we _are_ doing a form of computing because it
    _can_ be used to produce sequences with confidence, including some
    outside that of turing computability

    So what you really did is break the rules of a deterministic algorithm
    by using the side record and by not simulating what you though you
    were simulating.

    No deterministic algorithm, no refutation of church-turing

    the algorithm is detailed in -o7.6 ... which u still haven't even opened




    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be converted
    to a function which read/writes a global variable, and that global
    variable need to be set to the same value it had when und_cir_sr was
    first called.

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they just
    have a tape, and if the value is output to the tape anywhere, it can
    be picked out by a simulation and contradicted by a paradox

    Strawman.-a "it can be picked out" means you're talking about changing
    the code which means you're no longer talking about the same machine.

    that's incorrect. reading values from the tape during a step of the computation does not change the machine which is being simulated ...

    and if a machine is simulating itself, like in the case an
    undecidability paradox within computing, then this can be used to pick
    out values behind any form of data encapsulation that you might suggest
    to hide data away from a paradox. there's no where to hide output dud. there's no "global variable" that might prevent a paradox from being formed

    there is _no_ way to simulate a general ability to decide on paradoxical turing machines, from within turing machines

    unless like what ... u lost track what turing's proof was even about
    cause ur so confused in asserting that i'm wrong???



    there is _no_ way to simulate the general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines within turing machines.

    There are no "paradoxical" turing machine in the way you're thinking
    of them.-a Once you change the instructions, you no longer have the
    same turing machine.


    i never suggested changing any instructions dud, idk where u even pulled that from

    Let's not get personal. It's just a review of a plain text computational theory outline. Wrap it up chucklefucks!

    No, I'm pointing out that you didn't refute it because you didn't >>>>>> do what you think you did.

    suppose sim_cir_sr() successfully simulates and outputs the agent's >>>>> decision process for the side record...

    so how does the simulated agent within sim_cir_sr respond to the
    input of und_cir_sr?

    0) does the simulated agent simulate sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr)
    recursively without ever reaching a decision, such that
    sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) never returns, and thereby und_cir_sr will
    recurse infinitely without output (making it circular)

    1) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circular, so
    sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => true, causing und_cir_sr to output an
    infinite sequence (making it circle-free)

    2) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circle-free,
    so sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => false, causing und_cir_sr to halt
    (making it circular)

    these all exist as possible sim_cir_sr machines in the total
    machines enumeration, which one are you asserting correctly
    simulates the idealized agent acting externally to the turing
    machine model?


    None of those simulate und_cir_sr correctly because they aren't
    setting the side record to the same value that it has when
    und_cir_sr is originally called, meaning it doesn't actually
    simulate "itself".

    That means your abstraction is broken and you don't actually have an
    algorithm.

    in the case of 0) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as circular

    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_0a) when
    und_cir_sr(side_record_value_0) is called.


    in the case of 1) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as
    circle-free


    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_1a) when
    und_cir_sr(side_record_value_1) is called.

    in the case of 2) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as circular >>>

    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2a) when
    und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2) is called.


    how so i know that's possible ... because we just did it u moron! u
    can't pin and contradict the general ability to determine what a
    particular machine does, you can only pin addressable models like
    turing machine. yes we _are_ doing a form of computing because it

    were simulating.

    No deterministic algorithm, no refutation of church-turing

    the algorithm is detailed in -o7.6 ... which u still haven't even opened

    Not a deterministic algorithm, as I previously stated and which you made
    no attempt to refute, and therefore irrelevant to church-turning





    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be converted
    to a function which read/writes a global variable, and that global
    variable need to be set to the same value it had when und_cir_sr was

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they just
    have a tape, and if the value is output to the tape anywhere, it can
    be picked out by a simulation and contradicted by a paradox

    Strawman.-a "it can be picked out" means you're talking about changing
    the code which means you're no longer talking about the same machine.

    that's incorrect. reading values from the tape during a step of the computation does not change the machine which is being simulated ...

    No, but the code you've shown doesn't do that. So if you change the
    code to do that, it's no longer the same machine.


    and if a machine is simulating itself,

    Which your code isn't doing because the side data isn't the same when
    starting the simulation as it was when the machine was invoked.

    like in the case an
    undecidability paradox within computing, then this can be used to pick
    out values behind any form of data encapsulation that you might suggest
    to hide data away from a paradox. there's no where to hide output dud. there's no "global variable" that might prevent a paradox from being formed

    "can be used" meaning it's not being used now, and therefore irrelevant.


    there is _no_ way to simulate a general ability to decide on paradoxical turing machines, from within turing machines

    So a paradoxical machine is one that a decider gets wrong? So this machine:

    void foo() { return; }

    Is a paridoxical machine to this one:

    int bar(void *p) { return 0; }

    Because machine bar can't successfully report the status of machine foo.
    Yes?


    unless like what ... u lost track what turing's proof was even about
    cause ur so confused in asserting that i'm wrong???



    there is _no_ way to simulate the general ability to decide on

    There are no "paradoxical" turing machine in the way you're thinking

    same turing machine.


    i never suggested changing any instructions dud, idk where u even pulled that from


    Phrases like "can be used" and "paradoxical machine" imply changing code
    which you can't do.

    Turing machines are defined by their actual instructions, not where instructions can physically reside.

    and if that mistake is you continually begging that the ct-
    thesis is correct ...

    No, I'm pointing out that you didn't refute it because you didn't >>>>>>> do what you think you did.

    suppose sim_cir_sr() successfully simulates and outputs the
    agent's decision process for the side record...

    so how does the simulated agent within sim_cir_sr respond to the
    input of und_cir_sr?

    0) does the simulated agent simulate sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr)
    recursively without ever reaching a decision, such that
    sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) never returns, and thereby und_cir_sr will >>>>>> recurse infinitely without output (making it circular)

    1) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circular, so >>>>>> sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => true, causing und_cir_sr to output an
    infinite sequence (making it circle-free)

    2) does the simulated agent decide that und_cir_sr is circle-free, >>>>>> so sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) => false, causing und_cir_sr to halt
    (making it circular)

    these all exist as possible sim_cir_sr machines in the total
    machines enumeration, which one are you asserting correctly
    simulates the idealized agent acting externally to the turing
    machine model?


    None of those simulate und_cir_sr correctly because they aren't
    setting the side record to the same value that it has when
    und_cir_sr is originally called, meaning it doesn't actually
    simulate "itself".

    That means your abstraction is broken and you don't actually have
    an algorithm.

    in the case of 0) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as
    circular

    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_0a) when
    und_cir_sr(side_record_value_0) is called.


    in the case of 1) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as
    circle-free


    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_1a) when
    und_cir_sr(side_record_value_1) is called.

    in the case of 2) the idealized agent will record und_cir_sr as
    circular


    No, it records und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2a) when
    und_cir_sr(side_record_value_2) is called.


    how so i know that's possible ... because we just did it u moron! u
    can't pin and contradict the general ability to determine what a
    particular machine does, you can only pin addressable models like
    turing machine. yes we _are_ doing a form of computing because it
    _can_ be used to produce sequences with confidence, including some
    outside that of turing computability

    So what you really did is break the rules of a deterministic
    algorithm by using the side record and by not simulating what you
    though you were simulating.

    what rule??? lol deterministic only means running it always has the same result given the same input ... which a total decision algo run by the idealized agent certainly does


    No deterministic algorithm, no refutation of church-turing

    the algorithm is detailed in -o7.6 ... which u still haven't even opened

    Not a deterministic algorithm, as I previously stated and which you made
    no attempt to refute, and therefore irrelevant to church-turning

    u haven't even read the algo, so how are you going to explain why
    specifically it's non-deterministic ... ???






    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be
    converted to a function which read/writes a global variable, and
    that global variable need to be set to the same value it had when
    und_cir_sr was first called.

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they just
    have a tape, and if the value is output to the tape anywhere, it can
    be picked out by a simulation and contradicted by a paradox

    Strawman.-a "it can be picked out" means you're talking about changing
    the code which means you're no longer talking about the same machine.

    that's incorrect. reading values from the tape during a step of the
    computation does not change the machine which is being simulated ...

    No, but the code you've shown doesn't do that.-a So if you change the
    code to do that, it's no longer the same machine.

    ofc the code does that ... getting "output" from a simulation requires
    reading the output from tape of the simulated machine, it can do that
    for any value, even ones that are specified to be "output"



    and if a machine is simulating itself,

    Which your code isn't doing because the side data isn't the same when starting the simulation as it was when the machine was invoked.

    idk what u mean by "side data" there only data on the tape when it comes
    to turing machines, there is nothing on the side of data on the tape.


    like in the case an undecidability paradox within computing, then this
    can be used to pick out values behind any form of data encapsulation
    that you might suggest to hide data away from a paradox. there's no
    where to hide output dud. there's no "global variable" that might
    prevent a paradox from being formed

    "can be used" meaning it's not being used now, and therefore irrelevant.


    there is _no_ way to simulate a general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines, from within turing machines

    So a paradoxical machine is one that a decider gets wrong?-a So this machine:

    void foo() { return; }

    Is a paridoxical machine to this one:

    int bar(void *p) { return 0; }

    Because machine bar can't successfully report the status of machine foo.
    -aYes?

    no. first, we went over this dud: constant return function are not and
    will never qualify as a halting decider as they do not output useful information in regards to the halting status Efn+. the fact a machine
    happens to output the correct answer does not qualify them as a halting decider, a decider must output trustworthy information which is judged
    across the entirety of the output space, not just single instances

    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to the
    construction of the machine itself, the form is generalized in -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, it's not a paradox, and is not
    undecidable in respect to any classifier let alone in totality



    unless like what ... u lost track what turing's proof was even about
    cause ur so confused in asserting that i'm wrong???



    there is _no_ way to simulate the general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines within turing machines.

    There are no "paradoxical" turing machine in the way you're thinking
    of them.-a Once you change the instructions, you no longer have the
    same turing machine.


    i never suggested changing any instructions dud, idk where u even
    pulled that from


    Phrases like "can be used" and "paradoxical machine" imply changing code which you can't do.

    this is theoretical computing dud, all possibilities must be accounted
    for and robustly handled


    Turing machines are defined by their actual instructions, not where instructions can physically reside.

    these all exist as possible sim_cir_sr machines in the total

    None of those simulate und_cir_sr correctly because they aren't

    You seem to think that the human's side record is not part of the input.
    If so, that makes it non-deterministic.

    ofc the code does that

    Your code is reading the part of the tape where the mechanized human
    agent is writing its side record?

    No?

    Then your code doesn't do that, and talking about what it "can" do
    necessarily means changing the code to something not being decided on.

    ... getting "output" from a simulation requires
    reading the output from tape of the simulated machine, it can do that
    for any value, even ones that are specified to be "output"



    and if a machine is simulating itself,

    Which your code isn't doing because the side data isn't the same when

    idk what u mean by "side data" there only data on the tape when it comes

    In other words, it's no different from *any* partial halt decider.
    That's not even mentioning ill-defined weasel words like "useful",
    "happens to", "trustworthy", and "judged".


    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to the
    construction of the machine itself, the form is generalized in -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, it's not a paradox, and is not undecidable in respect to any classifier let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non-constant
    function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    return 1;
    } else {
    return 0;
    }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return" instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt.

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?




    unless like what ... u lost track what turing's proof was even about
    cause ur so confused in asserting that i'm wrong???

    0) does the simulated agent simulate sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr)

    So what you really did is break the rules of a deterministic
    algorithm by using the side record and by not simulating what you
    though you were simulating.

    what rule??? lol deterministic only means running it always has the
    same result given the same input ... which a total decision algo run
    by the idealized agent certainly does

    So what exactly are the inputs to the human agent?

    the agent gets the machine description like any decision algo, that
    would be clear if u just read the paper




    No deterministic algorithm, no refutation of church-turing

    You seem to think that the human's side record is not part of the input.
    -aIf so, that makes it non-deterministic.

    the side-record is nothing more than the aggregated output of the agent decision algo run across all turing machines. any particular n-th record
    does not influence any future records beyond n. or before n for that matter








    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they just >>>>>> have a tape, and if the value is output to the tape anywhere, it
    can be picked out by a simulation and contradicted by a paradox

    Strawman.-a "it can be picked out" means you're talking about
    changing the code which means you're no longer talking about the
    same machine.

    that's incorrect. reading values from the tape during a step of the
    computation does not change the machine which is being simulated ...

    No, but the code you've shown doesn't do that.-a So if you change the
    code to do that, it's no longer the same machine.

    ofc the code does that

    Your code is reading the part of the tape where the mechanized human
    agent is writing its side record?

    No?

    Then your code doesn't do that, and talking about what it "can" do necessarily means changing the code to something not being decided on.

    u really don't get it: claiming a machine to be a total decider is
    subject to the full enumerations of machines, meaning if an input can
    exist, it will exist

    there exists a paradox that contradicts any possible location you could
    write a decision bit on a tape, and therefore there will exist a machine
    that defies the decision, no matter where u try to write it

    it is _not_ possible to simulate the side result created by the agent
    running a total decision algorithm. it is _not_ even possible to create
    a total decision algorithm with turing machines, like seriously have u forgotten the point of turing's proof???


    ... getting "output" from a simulation requires reading the output
    from tape of the simulated machine, it can do that for any value, even
    ones that are specified to be "output"



    and if a machine is simulating itself,

    Which your code isn't doing because the side data isn't the same when
    starting the simulation as it was when the machine was invoked.

    idk what u mean by "side data" there only data on the tape when it
    comes to turing machines, there is nothing on the side of data on the
    tape.

    I'm referring specifically to what the mechanized version of the human
    agent writes to the tape.



    like in the case an undecidability paradox within computing, then
    this can be used to pick out values behind any form of data
    encapsulation that you might suggest to hide data away from a
    paradox. there's no where to hide output dud. there's no "global
    variable" that might prevent a paradox from being formed

    "can be used" meaning it's not being used now, and therefore irrelevant. >>>

    there is _no_ way to simulate a general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines, from within turing machines

    So a paradoxical machine is one that a decider gets wrong?-a So this
    machine:

    void foo() { return; }

    Is a paridoxical machine to this one:

    int bar(void *p) { return 0; }

    Because machine bar can't successfully report the status of machine
    foo. -a-aYes?

    no. first, we went over this dud: constant return function are not and
    will never qualify as a halting decider as they do not output useful
    information in regards to the halting status Efn+. the fact a machine
    happens to output the correct answer does not qualify them as a
    halting decider, a decider must output trustworthy information which
    is judged across the entirety of the output space, not just single
    instances

    In other words, it's no different from *any* partial halt decider.
    That's not even mentioning ill-defined weasel words like "useful",
    "happens to", "trustworthy", and "judged".

    dud if ur not here to effectively compute useful knowledge, idk what ur
    doing discussing the theory of computing.

    let me not mince words. the existing theory on the matter of deciders is
    thus:

    - a decider is not allowed a false positive or false negative, and never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any non-trivial decider (within
    turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is abound in
    false positives and therefore is completely disqualified as being a
    halting decider.

    - a recognizer is also not allowed false positives or false negatives,
    it is however allowed to diverge on some negatives, but never a
    positive. a halting recognizer is allowed to diverge on some non-halting input, but never halting input. this is sometimes called a partial
    decider, but i'm going to label as it recognizer to align the rather
    well known sipser on this, and because i have further definitions to
    propose. we can build a halting recognizer, but not a non-halting
    recognizer.

    a constant return 1 function does not satisfy this for halting either,
    as again it's abound in false positives.

    in my paper i propose two more types:

    - a partial decider is still _not_ allowed false positive or negatives.
    but it is allowed to diverge on some positives and some negatives. we
    can be build withing turing machines both halting and non-halting
    partial deciders

    a constant return 1 function still does not satisfy this for halting either

    - a partial recognizer is still not allowed false positives, but _does_
    allow false negative ... but _only_ in the case where returning positive
    would be a false positive. this exception is allowed because a partial recognizer therefore does not need to diverge, ever, and always halts.
    this can also be built within turing machines for the halting and
    non-halting problems.

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy these
    requirements for halting

    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never read

    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to the
    construction of the machine itself, the form is generalized in -o3 of
    my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, it's not a paradox, and is not
    undecidable in respect to any classifier let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non-constant
    function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return" instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt.

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?




    unless like what ... u lost track what turing's proof was even about
    cause ur so confused in asserting that i'm wrong???



    there is _no_ way to simulate the general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines within turing machines.

    There are no "paradoxical" turing machine in the way you're
    thinking of them.-a Once you change the instructions, you no longer >>>>> have the same turing machine.


    i never suggested changing any instructions dud, idk where u even
    pulled that from


    Phrases like "can be used" and "paradoxical machine" imply changing
    code which you can't do.

    this is theoretical computing dud, all possibilities must be accounted
    for and robustly handled

    Without conflating one for another, which you seem to be doing.



    Turing machines are defined by their actual instructions, not where
    instructions can physically reside.

    Because machine bar can't successfully report the status of machine
    foo. -a-aYes?

    no. first, we went over this dud: constant return function are not
    and will never qualify as a halting decider as they do not output
    useful information in regards to the halting status Efn+. the fact a
    machine happens to output the correct answer does not qualify them as
    a halting decider, a decider must output trustworthy information
    which is judged across the entirety of the output space, not just
    single instances

    In other words, it's no different from *any* partial halt decider.
    That's not even mentioning ill-defined weasel words like "useful",
    "happens to", "trustworthy", and "judged".

    dud if ur not here to effectively compute useful knowledge, idk what ur doing discussing the theory of computing.

    let me not mince words. the existing theory on the matter of deciders is thus:

    - a decider is not allowed a false positive or false negative, and never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any non-trivial decider (within
    turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is abound in
    false positives and therefore is completely disqualified as being a
    halting decider.

    - a recognizer is also not allowed false positives or false negatives,
    it is however allowed to diverge on some negatives, but never a
    positive. a halting recognizer is allowed to diverge on some non-halting input, but never halting input. this is sometimes called a partial
    decider, but i'm going to label as it recognizer to align the rather
    well known sipser on this, and because i have further definitions to propose. we can build a halting recognizer, but not a non-halting recognizer.

    a constant return 1 function does not satisfy this for halting either,
    as again it's abound in false positives.

    in my paper i propose two more types:

    - a partial decider is still _not_ allowed false positive or negatives.
    but it is allowed to diverge on some positives and some negatives. we
    can be build withing turing machines both halting and non-halting
    partial deciders

    a constant return 1 function still does not satisfy this for halting either

    - a partial recognizer is still not allowed false positives, but _does_ allow false negative ... but _only_ in the case where returning positive would be a false positive. this exception is allowed because a partial recognizer therefore does not need to diverge, ever, and always halts.
    this can also be built within turing machines for the halting and non- halting problems.

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy these
    requirements for halting

    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never read

    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to the
    construction of the machine itself, the form is generalized in -o3 of
    my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, it's not a paradox, and is not
    undecidable in respect to any classifier let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non-constant
    function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return"
    instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt.

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this? It goes directly to your definition of
    "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and
    therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    You seem to think that the human's side record is not part of the
    input. -a-aIf so, that makes it non-deterministic.

    the side-record is nothing more than the aggregated output of the
    agent decision algo run across all turing machines. any particular n-
    th record does not influence any future records beyond n. or before n
    for that matter

    And if the human later reads it, that makes it an input.

    i'm sorry, please explain to me why you think the agent needs to read
    from the side record after writing to it???


    So choose how you're wrong:
    - The side record is not an input, so you have a non-determinstic
    algorithm that is irrelevant to church-turning
    - The side record is an input, and your abstraction is broken with your simulator not actually simulating itself.









    To fix it, the fixed steps the human agent runs need to be
    converted to a function which read/writes a global variable, >>>>>>>>> and that global variable need to be set to the same value it >>>>>>>>> had when und_cir_sr was first called.

    lol, turing machines don't have "global variables" dud, they
    just have a tape, and if the value is output to the tape
    anywhere, it can be picked out by a simulation and contradicted >>>>>>>> by a paradox

    Strawman.-a "it can be picked out" means you're talking about
    changing the code which means you're no longer talking about the >>>>>>> same machine.

    that's incorrect. reading values from the tape during a step of
    the computation does not change the machine which is being
    simulated ...

    No, but the code you've shown doesn't do that.-a So if you change
    the code to do that, it's no longer the same machine.

    ofc the code does that

    Your code is reading the part of the tape where the mechanized human
    agent is writing its side record?

    No?

    Then your code doesn't do that, and talking about what it "can" do
    necessarily means changing the code to something not being decided on.

    u really don't get it: claiming a machine to be a total decider is
    subject to the full enumerations of machines, meaning if an input can
    exist, it will exist

    That has nothing to do with the fact that you can't talk about changing
    code and still claim it's the same machine.

    no one is changing the goal post as the goal post of a decider is
    handling _all_ possible input



    there exists a paradox that contradicts any possible location you
    could write a decision bit on a tape, and therefore there will exist a
    machine that defies the decision, no matter where u try to write it

    it is _not_ possible to simulate the side result created by the agent
    running a total decision algorithm.

    1) you can't read the side result because your abstraction is broken
    2) the human agent isn't a halt decider, partial or otherwise, because
    it takes an input that disqualifies it

    it is _not_ even possible to create a total decision algorithm with
    turing machines, like seriously have u forgotten the point of turing's
    proof???


    ... getting "output" from a simulation requires reading the output
    from tape of the simulated machine, it can do that for any value,
    even ones that are specified to be "output"



    and if a machine is simulating itself,

    Which your code isn't doing because the side data isn't the same
    when starting the simulation as it was when the machine was invoked.

    idk what u mean by "side data" there only data on the tape when it
    comes to turing machines, there is nothing on the side of data on
    the tape.

    I'm referring specifically to what the mechanized version of the
    human agent writes to the tape.



    like in the case an undecidability paradox within computing, then >>>>>> this can be used to pick out values behind any form of data
    encapsulation that you might suggest to hide data away from a

    "can be used" meaning it's not being used now, and therefore
    irrelevant.


    there is _no_ way to simulate a general ability to decide on
    paradoxical turing machines, from within turing machines

    So a paradoxical machine is one that a decider gets wrong?-a So this >>>>> machine:

    void foo() { return; }

    what rule??? lol deterministic only means running it always has

    So what exactly are the inputs to the human agent?

    the agent gets the machine description like any decision algo, that

    You seem to think that the human's side record is not part of the
    input. -a-aIf so, that makes it non-deterministic.

    the side-record is nothing more than the aggregated output of the
    agent decision algo run across all turing machines. any particular
    n- th record does not influence any future records beyond n. or
    before n for that matter

    And if the human later reads it, that makes it an input.

    i'm sorry, please explain to me why you think the agent needs to read
    from the side record after writing to it???

    If the agent never reads the record, why does it need to write it?

    to clearly demonstrate that the sequence is produced, to demonstrate
    that the ability to objectively decide on any given turing machine is
    not confounded by the fact no turing machine itself can be a total
    machine decider




    So choose how you're wrong:
    - The side record is not an input, so you have a non-determinstic
    algorithm that is irrelevant to church-turning
    - The side record is an input, and your abstraction is broken with
    your simulator not actually simulating itself.

    No response to this?

    nothing written to the side record is used further in the computation,
    so the agent never needs to read from it again

    ofc the code does that

    Your code is reading the part of the tape where the mechanized

    No?

    u really don't get it: claiming a machine to be a total decider is

    changing code and still claim it's the same machine.

    no one is changing the goal post as the goal post of a decider is
    handling _all_ possible input

    *A* decider.-a There is no "can" or "can not", only "does" or "does not".

    there exists a machine that does a paradox for any location you can
    write a decision to the tape





    there exists a paradox that contradicts any possible location you
    could write a decision bit on a tape, and therefore there will exist
    a machine that defies the decision, no matter where u try to write it

    it is _not_ possible to simulate the side result created by the
    agent running a total decision algorithm.

    1) you can't read the side result because your abstraction is broken
    2) the human agent isn't a halt decider, partial or otherwise,
    because it takes an input that disqualifies it

    No response to this?

    neither of those are correct: false dichotomy

    there is _no_ way to simulate a general ability to decide on

    no. first, we went over this dud: constant return function are not >>>>>> and will never qualify as a halting decider as they do not output >>>>>> useful information in regards to the halting status Efn+. the fact a >>>>>> machine happens to output the correct answer does not qualify them >>>>>> as a halting decider, a decider must output trustworthy

    In other words, it's no different from *any* partial halt decider.
    That's not even mentioning ill-defined weasel words like "useful",
    "happens to", "trustworthy", and "judged".

    dud if ur not here to effectively compute useful knowledge, idk what
    ur doing discussing the theory of computing.

    let me not mince words. the existing theory on the matter of
    deciders is thus:

    - a decider is not allowed a false positive or false negative, and
    never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any non-trivial decider
    (within turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is abound
    in false positives and therefore is completely disqualified as being
    a halting decider.

    - a recognizer is also not allowed false positives or false
    negatives, it is however allowed to diverge on some negatives, but
    never a positive. a halting recognizer is allowed to diverge on some
    non- halting input, but never halting input. this is sometimes
    called a partial decider, but i'm going to label as it recognizer to
    align the rather well known sipser on this, and because i have
    further definitions to propose. we can build a halting recognizer,
    but not a non-halting recognizer.

    a constant return 1 function does not satisfy this for halting
    either, as again it's abound in false positives.

    in my paper i propose two more types:

    - a partial decider is still _not_ allowed false positive or
    negatives. but it is allowed to diverge on some positives and some
    negatives. we can be build withing turing machines both halting and
    non-halting partial deciders

    a constant return 1 function still does not satisfy this for halting
    either

    - a partial recognizer is still not allowed false positives, but
    _does_ allow false negative ... but _only_ in the case where
    returning positive would be a false positive. this exception is
    allowed because a partial recognizer therefore does not need to
    diverge, ever, and always halts. this can also be built within
    turing machines for the halting and non- halting problems.

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy these
    requirements for halting

    i just defined my terms here quite clearly. i suppose i'll thank you for encouraging me to develop that, i'll may add it to my paper


    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never read

    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to the
    construction of the machine itself, the form is generalized in -o3 >>>>>> of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, it's not a paradox, and >>>>>> is not undecidable in respect to any classifier let alone in totality >>>>>
    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non-constant >>>>> function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {

    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return"
    instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt.

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of
    "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what it's
    supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports halting if the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86 instruction "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because your
    terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives or false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of machines without a _single_ false positive or false negative. that's not even my assertion, that's the established consensus on the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be
    disqualified as a partial halting decider




    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and
    therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    "Again". So it does read from the side record.

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non-

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if we can

    int bar(void *p) {

    }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives. So no more dodging the point:

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-defined,
    and consequently the rest of your paper.





    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and

    You cannot predict a random number and you cannot solve the halting

    turing machines do not involve random numbers dud. if u knew literally
    anything about basic computing theory u'd know that.

    but u don't, so go back to ur fractals, eh?

    Well, ponder on CSPRNG?

    pseudo-random number generators are fully deterministic and therefore
    entirely decidable in terms of whether it the machine which produces it
    is circle-free or not (they are obviously). for any decision ofc one
    needs a description of the machine including any input (like a seed),
    and that combination can be used to decide on the semantics of the
    described computation

    when u say "random" that does not describe what can be produced by a
    turing machine, as they can only compute pseudo-random sequences that
    are inherently predictable, not truly random ones. if u meant
    pseudo-random you should have said that...

    seriously, bro: back to ur fractals, eh?

    So choose how you're wrong:

    - The side record is an input, and your abstraction is broken with

    That makes it an input.

    Which means that when und_cir_sr calls sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) after

    No, but the code you've shown doesn't do that.-a So if you
    change the code to do that, it's no longer the same machine.

    ofc the code does that

    Your code is reading the part of the tape where the mechanized
    human agent is writing its side record?

    No?

    Then your code doesn't do that, and talking about what it "can" >>>>>>> do necessarily means changing the code to something not being

    u really don't get it: claiming a machine to be a total decider is >>>>>> subject to the full enumerations of machines, meaning if an input >>>>>> can exist, it will exist

    That has nothing to do with the fact that you can't talk about
    changing code and still claim it's the same machine.

    no one is changing the goal post as the goal post of a decider is
    handling _all_ possible input

    *A* decider.-a There is no "can" or "can not", only "does" or "does not". >>
    there exists a machine that does a paradox for any location you can
    write a decision to the tape

    You "can" write means changing the code of the decider, which is not allowed.-a Otherwise you're not talking about the same decider.

    for any location on the tape that a decider does attempt to write a
    decision, of which there are infinite locations on the tape, and
    infinite deciders writing to any location on the tape,

    there does exist infinite paradoxical machines which will read from that specific bit and produce a paradox for it in regards to the written decision

    there is _no_ way to produce a total halting decider for turing
    machines, within turing machines


    Turing machines are defined by their instructions, not where they

    neither of those are correct: false dichotomy

    2) the agent does not utilize information from the side record while

    In other words, it's no different from *any* partial halt
    decider. That's not even mentioning ill-defined weasel words like >>>>>>> "useful", "happens to", "trustworthy", and "judged".

    dud if ur not here to effectively compute useful knowledge, idk
    what ur doing discussing the theory of computing.

    let me not mince words. the existing theory on the matter of
    deciders is thus:

    - a decider is not allowed a false positive or false negative, and >>>>>> never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any non-trivial decider >>>>>> (within turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is
    abound in false positives and therefore is completely disqualified >>>>>> as being a halting decider.

    - a recognizer is also not allowed false positives or false
    negatives, it is however allowed to diverge on some negatives, but >>>>>> never a positive. a halting recognizer is allowed to diverge on
    some non- halting input, but never halting input. this is
    sometimes called a partial decider, but i'm going to label as it
    recognizer to align the rather well known sipser on this, and
    because i have further definitions to propose. we can build a
    halting recognizer, but not a non-halting recognizer.

    a constant return 1 function does not satisfy this for halting
    either, as again it's abound in false positives.

    in my paper i propose two more types:

    - a partial decider is still _not_ allowed false positive or
    negatives. but it is allowed to diverge on some positives and some >>>>>> negatives. we can be build withing turing machines both halting
    and non-halting partial deciders

    a constant return 1 function still does not satisfy this for
    halting either

    - a partial recognizer is still not allowed false positives, but
    _does_ allow false negative ... but _only_ in the case where
    returning positive would be a false positive. this exception is
    allowed because a partial recognizer therefore does not need to
    diverge, ever, and always halts. this can also be built within
    turing machines for the halting and non- halting problems.

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy these
    requirements for halting

    i just defined my terms here quite clearly. i suppose i'll thank you
    for encouraging me to develop that, i'll may add it to my paper


    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never read

    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to the >>>>>>>> construction of the machine itself, the form is generalized in >>>>>>>> -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, it's not a paradox, >>>>>>>> and is not undecidable in respect to any classifier let alone in >>>>>>>> totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non-
    constant function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return"
    instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt. >>>>>>>
    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of
    "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what it's
    supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports halting if
    the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86 instruction
    "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because your
    terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives or
    false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of machines
    without a _single_ false positive or false negative. that's not even
    my assertion, that's the established consensus on the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be
    disqualified as a partial halting decider

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if we can
    get you to define your terms:

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a while (1);
    -a-a-a }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives.-a So no more dodging the point:

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-defined,
    and consequently the rest of your paper.

    if i'm reading this correctly, bar now diverges (does not return) on the halting input foo

    i will clarify the definition for "partial decider": divergence is only allowed when both positive and negative returns would be false positive
    or false negative respectively (aka undecidable input to the partial
    decider), so this would not quality as a partial halting decider






    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and
    therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    ofc the code does that

    u really don't get it: claiming a machine to be a total decider >>>>>>> is subject to the full enumerations of machines, meaning if an

    That has nothing to do with the fact that you can't talk about
    changing code and still claim it's the same machine.

    no one is changing the goal post as the goal post of a decider is
    handling _all_ possible input

    *A* decider.-a There is no "can" or "can not", only "does" or "does
    not".

    there exists a machine that does a paradox for any location you can
    write a decision to the tape

    You "can" write means changing the code of the decider, which is not
    allowed.-a Otherwise you're not talking about the same decider.

    for any location on the tape that a decider does attempt to write a decision, of which there are infinite locations on the tape, and
    infinite deciders writing to any location on the tape,

    there does exist infinite paradoxical machines which will read from that specific bit and produce a paradox for it in regards to the written
    decision

    there is _no_ way to produce a total halting decider for turing
    machines, within turing machines


    Which is basically Turing's proof.


    Turing machines are defined by their instructions, not where they
    physically reside.






    there exists a paradox that contradicts any possible location you >>>>>>> could write a decision bit on a tape, and therefore there will

    1) you can't read the side result because your abstraction is broken >>>>>> 2) the human agent isn't a halt decider, partial or otherwise,
    because it takes an input that disqualifies it

    No response to this?

    neither of those are correct: false dichotomy

    That wasn't an either/or.-a Both apply.
    1) the agent does not read from the side record

    2) the agent does not utilize information from the side record while computing the decision for any given input machine

    neither apply

    I don't believe you.

    If the agent *never* uses the side record, that makes the side record
    entirely irrelevant, and it means that any machine can use the agent's algorithm to exactly reproduce what the agent does if it doesn't use the
    side data. You wouldn't have added a whole section to your paper about
    the side record and made it the focus of your "refutation" if the agent
    didn't use it.

    You're backtracking because you've been caught in a fundamental mistake
    and won't admit it.

    In other words, it's no different from *any* partial halt
    decider. That's not even mentioning ill-defined weasel words
    like "useful", "happens to", "trustworthy", and "judged".

    dud if ur not here to effectively compute useful knowledge, idk >>>>>>> what ur doing discussing the theory of computing.

    let me not mince words. the existing theory on the matter of
    deciders is thus:

    - a decider is not allowed a false positive or false negative,
    and never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any non-trivial
    decider (within turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is
    abound in false positives and therefore is completely
    disqualified as being a halting decider.

    - a recognizer is also not allowed false positives or false
    negatives, it is however allowed to diverge on some negatives,
    but never a positive. a halting recognizer is allowed to diverge >>>>>>> on some non- halting input, but never halting input. this is
    sometimes called a partial decider, but i'm going to label as it >>>>>>> recognizer to align the rather well known sipser on this, and
    because i have further definitions to propose. we can build a
    halting recognizer, but not a non-halting recognizer.

    a constant return 1 function does not satisfy this for halting
    either, as again it's abound in false positives.

    in my paper i propose two more types:

    - a partial decider is still _not_ allowed false positive or
    negatives. but it is allowed to diverge on some positives and
    some negatives. we can be build withing turing machines both
    halting and non-halting partial deciders

    a constant return 1 function still does not satisfy this for
    halting either

    - a partial recognizer is still not allowed false positives, but >>>>>>> _does_ allow false negative ... but _only_ in the case where
    returning positive would be a false positive. this exception is >>>>>>> allowed because a partial recognizer therefore does not need to >>>>>>> diverge, ever, and always halts. this can also be built within
    turing machines for the halting and non- halting problems.

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy these >>>>>>> requirements for halting

    i just defined my terms here quite clearly. i suppose i'll thank you
    for encouraging me to develop that, i'll may add it to my paper


    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never read >>>>>>>
    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to the >>>>>>>>> construction of the machine itself, the form is generalized in >>>>>>>>> -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, it's not a
    paradox, and is not undecidable in respect to any classifier >>>>>>>>> let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non-
    constant function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return"
    instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt. >>>>>>>>
    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of
    "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what it's
    supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports halting if
    the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86 instruction
    "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because your
    terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives or
    false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of machines
    without a _single_ false positive or false negative. that's not even
    my assertion, that's the established consensus on the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be
    disqualified as a partial halting decider

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if we can
    get you to define your terms:

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a while (1);
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives.-a So no more dodging the point:

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-defined,
    and consequently the rest of your paper.

    if i'm reading this correctly, bar now diverges (does not return) on the halting input foo

    i will clarify the definition for "partial decider": divergence is only allowed when both positive and negative returns would be false positive
    or false negative respectively (aka undecidable input to the partial decider), so this would not quality as a partial halting decider


    So yet again you dodge the question on whether foo is "undecidable" by
    machine bar.

    That make that term ill-defined.

    And because you whole paper is based on the use of that word, it is
    reduced to meaninglessness.






    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and
    therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    i'm sorry, please explain to me why you think the agent needs to

    If the agent never reads the record, why does it need to write it?

    to clearly demonstrate that the sequence is produced, to demonstrate
    that the ability to objectively decide on any given turing machine
    is not confounded by the fact no turing machine itself can be a
    total machine decider

    So it's just a log?

    it is a computed sequence,

    Meaning that if the side record doesn't exist the agent will behave
    exactly the same?

    yes beside the process of writing computed results to the side record

    Are you sure?

    7.3 "It is these recorded side effects that the idealized human agent
    can exploit"

    That implies the agent does in fact read the side record.

    lol are you trying to educate me about the paper i wrote??? yes i'm
    sure, as there is literally no need for the agent to read from the side record, as no halting decision for any turing machine requires doing so
    ... SO WHY WOULD HE???

    the record is there to formalize the notion of computing a sequence, not because it's used for later computations. and not because we would
    actually want to compute the total halting set, that would be as bad as
    busy beaver, so far beyond practical. it's to prove that such
    computation exist in theory, so we know that proving so is possible for
    any given machine








    So choose how you're wrong:
    - The side record is not an input, so you have a non-determinstic >>>>>>> algorithm that is irrelevant to church-turning
    - The side record is an input, and your abstraction is broken
    with your simulator not actually simulating itself.

    No response to this?

    nothing written to the side record is used further in the

    That makes it an input.

    Which means that when und_cir_sr calls sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) after

    You "can" write means changing the code of the decider, which is not

    for any location on the tape that a decider does attempt to write a

    there does exist infinite paradoxical machines which will read from

    let me not mince words. the existing theory on the matter of
    deciders is thus:

    - a decider is not allowed a false positive or false negative, >>>>>>>> and never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any non-trivial >>>>>>>> decider (within turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is
    abound in false positives and therefore is completely
    disqualified as being a halting decider.

    - a recognizer is also not allowed false positives or false
    negatives, it is however allowed to diverge on some negatives, >>>>>>>> but never a positive. a halting recognizer is allowed to diverge >>>>>>>> on some non- halting input, but never halting input. this is

    in my paper i propose two more types:

    - a partial decider is still _not_ allowed false positive or
    negatives. but it is allowed to diverge on some positives and >>>>>>>> some negatives. we can be build withing turing machines both
    halting and non-halting partial deciders

    a constant return 1 function still does not satisfy this for
    halting either

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy these >>>>>>>> requirements for halting

    i just defined my terms here quite clearly. i suppose i'll thank you
    for encouraging me to develop that, i'll may add it to my paper


    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never read >>>>>>>>
    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to >>>>>>>>>> the construction of the machine itself, the form is
    generalized in -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, >>>>>>>>>> it's not a paradox, and is not undecidable in respect to any >>>>>>>>>> classifier let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non- >>>>>>>>> constant function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return" >>>>>>>>> instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt. >>>>>>>>>
    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of
    "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what it's >>>>>> supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports halting if >>>>> the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86 instruction
    "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because
    your terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives or
    false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of machines
    without a _single_ false positive or false negative. that's not even
    my assertion, that's the established consensus on the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be
    disqualified as a partial halting decider

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if we
    can get you to define your terms:

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a while (1);
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives.-a So no more dodging the point:

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-
    defined, and consequently the rest of your paper.

    if i'm reading this correctly, bar now diverges (does not return) on
    the halting input foo

    i will clarify the definition for "partial decider": divergence is
    only allowed when both positive and negative returns would be false
    positive or false negative respectively (aka undecidable input to the
    partial decider), so this would not quality as a partial halting decider


    So yet again you dodge the question on whether foo is "undecidable" by machine bar.

    bar is _not_ halting decider, partial or otherwise, so asking if the
    halting semantics of foo is "undecidable" to bar is a category fallacy

    wowee fallacy #8


    That make that term ill-defined.

    the term is quite well defined: if a classifier/decider is stuck between returning a false positive and a false negative for a particular input,
    then that input is undecidable to the classifier/decider


    And because you whole paper is based on the use of that word, it is
    reduced to meaninglessness.

    a fallacy laden critique full of cognitive distortion and abuse is never
    going to convince me dud







    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and >>>>>>> therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    You're very confused here. If it is not allowed any false negatives
    or false positives, then you're talking about a /total/ halt decider.
    A / partial/ halt decider is something which correctly decides /some/
    instances of the halting problem but which fails to correctly
    decide / all/ instances. That's why that pesky word 'partial' is added.

    I don't know - what you're describing seems to already have a term:
    it's a "decider".-a (But just not a "halt decider" since it gets some
    inputs wrong by the halting criterion.)

    The way "partial halt decider" [PHD] has typically been used /on this
    newsgroup/ is to indicate a TM with three final "outcomes":
    --a HALTS-a-a-a-a-a-a-a [input halts]
    --a NEVERHALTS-a-a-a-a-a-a-a [input never halts]
    --a PASS-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a ["pass" - the PHD makes no halting decision] >>
    So the PHD may always PASS for a given input, but when it does
    indicate HALTS/NEVERHALTS that must /correctly/ match the input's
    halting behaviour.

    Quite a few posters over the years have casually suggested that "PHD"
    is a well known term meaning [whatever - generally something like my
    definition, rather than yours...] but I can't say I've seen any use of
    the term in books I've used!-a Is it /really/ a standard term???-a If
    "PHD" is more of a comp.theory common term, then posters should define
    their usage for the term when they use it.

    There are variations in how it might reasonably be defined, e.g. I
    suspect requiring PASS to be an actual "decision" by the PHD [e.g.
    transition to a 3rd TM halt state] is substantially different from
    allowing a PHD to implicitly PASS by virtue of never halting.-a Since
    this NG has often discussed concrete programs that run until they
    detect a definite HALTS or NEVERHALTS pattern, my suggestion is to
    allow PHDs to include programs that may never halt...-a [so PO's code
    would then be classed a PHD if its bugs/logic-errors were fixed.]

    Mike.

    well ... a major problem here is every other decade since the 50s the
    terms have changed a bit, and this has caused a lot of confusion

    as for the current convention, as far as i can tell the gold standard
    for terminology in the theory of computing is from michael sipser of
    MIT. to understand what the current conventional theory is, one needs to consider types of sets are considered relevant to decidability: turing- recognizable and turing-decidable

    https://broman.dev/download/ Introduction%20to%20the%20Theory%20of%20Computation%203rd%20Edition.pdf#page=194

    the textbook calls these "languages" but by language its referring to a
    set of strings where the strings are machine definitions, so those "languages" are actually just a particular set of machines

    a decidable set of machines means we can enumerate both the set and it's complement, allowing us to build a decider for that set to produce a accept/reject decision for each and every possible input. this cannot be done for halting machines due to the halting problem paradoxes

    a recognizable or semi-decidable set of machines is one we can
    enumerate, but not it's complement. this we can build a recognizer for,
    but not a decider. a recognizer will accept all within the set, but may diverge/loop for some in the complement. this can be built for halting machines, as we can enumerate halting machines using a dovetailing algo,
    but we cannot enumerate non-halting machines as such, and therefore a non-halting recognizer cannot be built.

    to reiterate a recognizer recognizes turing-recognizable sets of
    machines, while a decider deciders turing-decidable sets of machines,
    and conventional theory does not recognize other forms of classifiers at
    the moment. i think some books refer to a recognizer as a "partial
    decider" for semi-decidable sets like halting, but i'm going to call it
    a recognizer.

    and to be clear: conventional theory does _not_ consider a form of
    partial decider where only a subset of the primary set is recognized.
    the only form is a recognizer where only a subset of the complement is recognized, but the entirety of primary set is still recognized.
    anything less is not considered decidable by convention theory and is entirely ignored in potential,

    which is what my paper takes of advantage to poke holes

    It's a 5th grader response.

    You can use restricted programming languages or subsets (such as MISRA

    By banning unbounded loops and wild recursion, you ensure that every
    valid program in the language is guaranteed to finish

    that's why u gotta read the paper dud!

    what i show is that we don't need to restrict the computing power of the language, to gain total decidability of a language which can compute all
    that is computable! and prove that despite the computable enumerability
    of that language, it is logicalluy resistant to the undecidability
    paradoxes induced by diagonalization...

    the logic required to enumerate all turing-computable sequences,
    especially those involving self-references, is necessarily resistant to
    and cannot be used to compute either a total anti-diagonal, or even just
    a total diagonal. for every sequence that is computable, there must be
    an anti-sequence that is also computable. the existence of (sequence, anti-sequence) pairs defining the set of turing computable sequences contraindicates both a total diagonal _and_ a total anti-diagonal
    sequence from existing as a sequence that can be output by a turing
    machine. it will neither be found in the enumeration of all sequences,
    nor be definable using the logic required to enumerate those sequences.

    the closest to a true diagonal that is turing computable is one that is
    a direct diagonal across all sequences, except for producing anti-output
    to it's anti-sequence. and the closed to an anti-diagonal that can be
    computed is one that is the anti-output for all other sequences except
    itself!

    If the agent never reads the record, why does it need to write it?

    to clearly demonstrate that the sequence is produced, to
    demonstrate that the ability to objectively decide on any given
    turing machine is not confounded by the fact no turing machine
    itself can be a total machine decider

    So it's just a log?

    it is a computed sequence,

    Meaning that if the side record doesn't exist the agent will behave
    exactly the same?

    yes beside the process of writing computed results to the side record

    Are you sure?

    7.3 "It is these recorded side effects that the idealized human agent
    can exploit"

    That implies the agent does in fact read the side record.

    lol are you trying to educate me about the paper i wrote??? yes i'm
    sure, as there is literally no need for the agent to read from the side record, as no halting decision for any turing machine requires doing
    so ... SO WHY WOULD HE???

    Then anything the agent does can be accurately simulated by a turing
    machine.


    the record is there to formalize the notion of computing a sequence, not because it's used for later computations. and not because we would
    actually want to compute the total halting set, that would be as bad as
    busy beaver, so far beyond practical. it's to prove that such
    computation exist in theory, so we know that proving so is possible for
    any given machine

    So nothing more than a log, and therefore irrelevant.









    So choose how you're wrong:
    - The side record is not an input, so you have a non-
    determinstic algorithm that is irrelevant to church-turning
    - The side record is an input, and your abstraction is broken >>>>>>>> with your simulator not actually simulating itself.

    No response to this?

    nothing written to the side record is used further in the
    computation, so the agent never needs to read from it again

    "Again".-a So it does read from the side record.

    do u honestly think this is a genuine line of inquiry?

    side record.-a In fact, you wouldn't have a whole section on it in your

    agent's fixed algorithm.

    You've basically just confirmed that you're lying about what the agent
    does because you know you made a major fundamental mistake and won't
    admit it.

    bro unless u can tell me why the agent reads from the side record in the future, then he does not, cause he doesn't need to, and this line of

    now we're at 4 named fallacies, 1 named cognitive distortion, and 1
    named abuse tactic

    Just because you gave the name of a fallacy doesn't mean it applies.

    just because u can't identify forms of fallacies does not negate their application. let's add #5 and #6 for ur latest post: bad-faith interpretation + strawman

    I explained why some of them don't apply and your response was "nope, I
    gave the name of a fallacy, therefore it applies" without explaining why
    I was wrong.

    I guess that means you'd be OK with me just naming a fallacy when you

    That makes it an input.

    Which means that when und_cir_sr calls sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr) after
    calling Tdp, it's not simulating itself.

    That also means the agent is disqualified from being a halt decider/
    recognizer, partial or otherwise.

    So your abstraction is broken.

    You "can" write means changing the code of the decider, which is not
    allowed.-a Otherwise you're not talking about the same decider.

    for any location on the tape that a decider does attempt to write a
    decision, of which there are infinite locations on the tape, and
    infinite deciders writing to any location on the tape,

    there does exist infinite paradoxical machines which will read from
    that specific bit and produce a paradox for it in regards to the
    written decision

    there is _no_ way to produce a total halting decider for turing
    machines, within turing machines


    Which is basically Turing's proof.

    so why are you trying to argue u can simulate the agent's
    computation ... u can't do so within turing machines

    If the agent is using *only* its fixed sequence of steps and a
    description of the algorithm to decide on to make a decision, which is
    what you now seem to be claiming, it can be exactly replicated.




    Turing machines are defined by their instructions, not where they
    physically reside.

    neither of those are correct: false dichotomy

    That wasn't an either/or.-a Both apply.
    1) the agent does not read from the side record

    2) the agent does not utilize information from the side record while
    computing the decision for any given input machine

    neither apply

    I don't believe you.

    If the agent *never* uses the side record, that makes the side record
    entirely irrelevant, and it means that any machine can use the agent's

    it's purpose is to demonstrate the existence of the computation, if u

    the agent didn't use it.

    turing machines don't utilize their own output to justify their
    existence... they just output it. why would an agent need to?

    i wonder if ur about to commit fallacy #7: special pleading


    You're backtracking because you've been caught in a fundamental

    let me not mince words. the existing theory on the matter of >>>>>>>>> deciders is thus:

    - a decider is not allowed a false positive or false negative, >>>>>>>>> and never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any non-trivial >>>>>>>>> decider (within turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is >>>>>>>>> abound in false positives and therefore is completely

    - a recognizer is also not allowed false positives or false >>>>>>>>> negatives, it is however allowed to diverge on some negatives, >>>>>>>>> but never a positive. a halting recognizer is allowed to
    diverge on some non- halting input, but never halting input. >>>>>>>>> this is sometimes called a partial decider, but i'm going to >>>>>>>>> label as it recognizer to align the rather well known sipser on >>>>>>>>> this, and because i have further definitions to propose. we can >>>>>>>>> build a halting recognizer, but not a non-halting recognizer. >>>>>>>>>
    a constant return 1 function does not satisfy this for halting >>>>>>>>> either, as again it's abound in false positives.

    in my paper i propose two more types:

    - a partial decider is still _not_ allowed false positive or >>>>>>>>> negatives. but it is allowed to diverge on some positives and >>>>>>>>> some negatives. we can be build withing turing machines both >>>>>>>>> halting and non-halting partial deciders

    a constant return 1 function still does not satisfy this for >>>>>>>>> halting either

    - a partial recognizer is still not allowed false positives, >>>>>>>>> but _does_ allow false negative ... but _only_ in the case

    exception is allowed because a partial recognizer therefore >>>>>>>>> does not need to diverge, ever, and always halts. this can also >>>>>>>>> be built within turing machines for the halting and non-
    halting problems.

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy these >>>>>>>>> requirements for halting

    i just defined my terms here quite clearly. i suppose i'll thank
    you for encouraging me to develop that, i'll may add it to my paper


    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never read >>>>>>>>>
    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to >>>>>>>>>>> the construction of the machine itself, the form is
    generalized in -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, >>>>>>>>>>> it's not a paradox, and is not undecidable in respect to any >>>>>>>>>>> classifier let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non- >>>>>>>>>> constant function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return" >>>>>>>>>> instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will halt. >>>>>>>>>>
    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of >>>>>>>> "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what it's >>>>>>> supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports halting
    if the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86
    instruction "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because
    your terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives or
    false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of machines
    without a _single_ false positive or false negative. that's not
    even my assertion, that's the established consensus on the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be
    disqualified as a partial halting decider

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if we
    can get you to define your terms:

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a while (1);
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives.-a So no more dodging the point: >>>>
    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-
    defined, and consequently the rest of your paper.

    if i'm reading this correctly, bar now diverges (does not return) on
    the halting input foo

    i will clarify the definition for "partial decider": divergence is
    only allowed when both positive and negative returns would be false
    positive or false negative respectively (aka undecidable input to the
    partial decider), so this would not quality as a partial halting decider >>>

    So yet again you dodge the question on whether foo is "undecidable" by
    machine bar.

    bar is _not_ halting decider, partial or otherwise, so asking if the
    halting semantics of foo is "undecidable" to bar is a category fallacy

    wowee fallacy #8

    Nope, you committed the fallacy of moving the goalposts after I provided something that satisfied your arbitrary requirements in order to dodge
    the question.

    The exact code placed in function bar is irrelevant to the question.



    That make that term ill-defined.

    the term is quite well defined: if a classifier/decider is stuck between returning a false positive and a false negative for a particular input,
    then that input is undecidable to the classifier/decider

    Category error. There is no "stuck between" doing two things. A classifier/decider does one thing and one thing only: what its fixed instructions tell it to do.

    Turing machines are defined by their instruction, not by where
    instructions physically reside.

    And not understanding that is your core mistake. The same mistake made
    by PO.



    And because you whole paper is based on the use of that word, it is
    reduced to meaninglessness.

    a fallacy laden critique full of cognitive distortion and abuse is never going to convince me dud







    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and >>>>>>>> therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    Are you sure?

    7.3 "It is these recorded side effects that the idealized human agent

    lol are you trying to educate me about the paper i wrote??? yes i'm
    sure, as there is literally no need for the agent to read from the
    side record, as no halting decision for any turing machine requires
    doing so ... SO WHY WOULD HE???

    Then anything the agent does can be accurately simulated by a turing machine.

    do you understand that repeating the unproven ct-thesis at me is not a
    proof?



    the record is there to formalize the notion of computing a sequence,
    not because it's used for later computations. and not because we would
    actually want to compute the total halting set, that would be as bad
    as busy beaver, so far beyond practical. it's to prove that such
    computation exist in theory, so we know that proving so is possible
    for any given machine

    So nothing more than a log, and therefore irrelevant.

    it's information that is written down and therefore definitively
    computed. if that isn't meaningful to you, then perhaps ur not really
    that interested in the theory of computing










    So choose how you're wrong:
    - The side record is not an input, so you have a non-
    determinstic algorithm that is irrelevant to church-turning
    - The side record is an input, and your abstraction is broken >>>>>>>>> with your simulator not actually simulating itself.

    No response to this?

    nothing written to the side record is used further in the
    computation, so the agent never needs to read from it again

    about the side record and made it the focus of your "refutation" if
    the agent didn't use it.

    turing machines don't utilize their own output to justify their

    void foo() {

    int bar(void *p) {

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of >>>>>>>>> "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what
    it's supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports halting >>>>>>> if the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86
    instruction "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because >>>>>>> your terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives or >>>>>> false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of machines >>>>>> without a _single_ false positive or false negative. that's not
    even my assertion, that's the established consensus on the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be
    disqualified as a partial halting decider

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if we
    can get you to define your terms:

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a while (1);
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives.-a So no more dodging the point: >>>>>
    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-
    defined, and consequently the rest of your paper.

    if i'm reading this correctly, bar now diverges (does not return) on
    the halting input foo

    i will clarify the definition for "partial decider": divergence is
    only allowed when both positive and negative returns would be false
    positive or false negative respectively (aka undecidable input to
    the partial decider), so this would not quality as a partial halting
    decider


    So yet again you dodge the question on whether foo is "undecidable"
    by machine bar.

    bar is _not_ halting decider, partial or otherwise, so asking if the
    halting semantics of foo is "undecidable" to bar is a category fallacy

    wowee fallacy #8

    Nope, you committed the fallacy of moving the goalposts after I provided something that satisfied your arbitrary requirements in order to dodge
    the question.

    well if it isn't a decider than asking if an input is undecidable to it
    is a category fallacy, no???

    and ur just completely misinformed about conventional computing theory.

    conventional computing theory only acknowledges total deciders, and recognizors, both of which _must_ return true for all positive input
    without producing _any_ false positives. recognizers may diverge on some
    false input, but neither are allowed false negatives. that's the
    established theory on the matter and if u disagree take it up with sipser.

    i'm proposing two more, which still are _not_ allowed to produce false positives. partial deciders are allowed to diverge on some positive
    input, whereas partial recognizer are allowed to produce false negatives
    (and never diverge), and both only in the case where the input is
    paradoxical (either return positive/negative would be false)


    The exact code placed in function bar is irrelevant to the question.

    there is no basis for this claim in conventional computing theory, nor
    is what i'm proposing. classifiers for a particular semantic property
    are not just random-ass algos that happens to output correctly for some machines, there are specific interface constraints they _must_ meet




    That make that term ill-defined.

    the term is quite well defined: if a classifier/decider is stuck
    between returning a false positive and a false negative for a
    particular input, then that input is undecidable to the classifier/
    decider

    Category error.-a There is no "stuck between" doing two things.-a A classifier/decider does one thing and one thing only: what its fixed instructions tell it to do.

    handling input where responding either positive or negative would be
    false is a real input scenario that must be handled by any actual
    machine attempting to accurately decide on other machines. i'm not
    describing what the machine is literally doing, i'm describing an
    objective mathematical reality of the decider's output space, when faced
    with paradoxical input


    Turing machines are defined by their instruction, not by where
    instructions physically reside.

    And not understanding that is your core mistake.-aThe same mistake made
    by PO.



    And because you whole paper is based on the use of that word, it is
    reduced to meaninglessness.

    a fallacy laden critique full of cognitive distortion and abuse is
    never going to convince me dud







    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, and >>>>>>>>> therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    You're very confused here. If it is not allowed any false negatives
    or false positives, then you're talking about a /total/ halt decider.
    A /partial/ halt decider is something which correctly decides /some/
    instances of the halting problem but which fails to correctly
    decide /all/ instances. That's why that pesky word 'partial' is added.

    I don't know - what you're describing seems to already have a term:
    it's a "decider".-a (But just not a "halt decider" since it gets some
    inputs wrong by the halting criterion.)

    The way "partial halt decider" [PHD] has typically been used /on this
    newsgroup/ is to indicate a TM with three final "outcomes":
    --a HALTS-a-a-a-a-a-a-a [input halts]
    --a NEVERHALTS-a-a-a-a-a-a-a [input never halts]
    --a PASS-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a ["pass" - the PHD makes no halting decision] >>
    So the PHD may always PASS for a given input, but when it does
    indicate HALTS/NEVERHALTS that must /correctly/ match the input's
    halting behaviour.

    Quite a few posters over the years have casually suggested that "PHD"
    is a well known term meaning [whatever - generally something like my
    definition, rather than yours...] but I can't say I've seen any use of
    the term in books I've used!-a Is it /really/ a standard term???-a If
    "PHD" is more of a comp.theory common term, then posters should define
    their usage for the term when they use it.

    There are variations in how it might reasonably be defined, e.g. I
    suspect requiring PASS to be an actual "decision" by the PHD [e.g.
    transition to a 3rd TM halt state] is substantially different from
    allowing a PHD to implicitly PASS by virtue of never halting.-a Since
    this NG has often discussed concrete programs that run until they
    detect a definite HALTS or NEVERHALTS pattern, my suggestion is to
    allow PHDs to include programs that may never halt...-a [so PO's code
    would then be classed a PHD if its bugs/logic-errors were fixed.]

    I think you may be correct that this term really is one specific to this newsgroup rather than a term in wide usage.

    However, the usage I gave seems consistent with what dbush intends by
    the term since he has used both the universal acceptor and the universal rejector as examples of partial halt deciders.

    those are not partial halting deciders, and the fact those in this group
    seem to think they are is an incredible bastardization of computing
    theory...

    anyone asserting those as partial halting deciders is clearly more
    interested in appearing correct, than actually being correct


    The usage you suggest would certainly describe something more useful
    than my own, but it's not clear to me that that is the usage which
    others have been using on this group.

    Then anything the agent does can be accurately simulated by a turing

    do you understand that repeating the unproven ct-thesis at me is not a proof?

    Do you understand that not showing a concrete example of a deterministic algorithm that a turing machine can't do is not a refutation?




    the record is there to formalize the notion of computing a sequence,
    not because it's used for later computations. and not because we
    would actually want to compute the total halting set, that would be
    as bad as busy beaver, so far beyond practical. it's to prove that
    such computation exist in theory, so we know that proving so is
    possible for any given machine

    So nothing more than a log, and therefore irrelevant.

    it's information that is written down and therefore definitively
    computed.

    And if a human executes a fixed deterministic sequence of steps using
    only a machine description as input, a machine can run those same exact
    steps using a machine description as input and subsequently write down
    that same information.

    if that isn't meaningful to you, then perhaps ur not really
    that interested in the theory of computing

    No response to this?

    nothing written to the side record is used further in the

    "Again".-a So it does read from the side record.

    talk about brain rot


    That makes it an input.

    Which means that when und_cir_sr calls sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr)
    after calling Tdp, it's not simulating itself.

    That also means the agent is disqualified from being a halt

    so why are you trying to argue u can simulate the agent's

    If the agent is using *only* its fixed sequence of steps and a
    description of the algorithm to decide on to make a decision, which is
    what you now seem to be claiming, it can be exactly replicated.

    again just continually begging the question that the ct-thesis is true.

    neither of those are correct: false dichotomy

    1) the agent does not read from the side record

    2) the agent does not utilize information from the side record
    while computing the decision for any given input machine

    side data.-a You wouldn't have added a whole section to your paper
    about the side record and made it the focus of your "refutation" if
    the agent didn't use it.

    turing machines don't utilize their own output to justify their
    existence... they just output it. why would an agent need to?

    i wonder if ur about to commit fallacy #7: special pleading


    You're backtracking because you've been caught in a fundamental
    mistake and won't admit it.






    it is _not_ even possible to create a total decision
    algorithm with turing machines, like seriously have u
    forgotten the point of turing's proof???

    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due to >>>>>>>>>>>>> the construction of the machine itself, the form is >>>>>>>>>>>>> generalized in -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that form, >>>>>>>>>>>>> it's not a paradox, and is not undecidable in respect to >>>>>>>>>>>>> any classifier let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non- >>>>>>>>>>>> constant function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return" >>>>>>>>>>>> instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will >>>>>>>>>>>> halt.

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of >>>>>>>>>> "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what >>>>>>>>> it's supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports halting >>>>>>>> if the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86
    instruction "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because >>>>>>>> your terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives or >>>>>>> false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of
    machines without a _single_ false positive or false negative.
    that's not even my assertion, that's the established consensus on >>>>>>> the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be
    disqualified as a partial halting decider

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if we >>>>>> can get you to define your terms:

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a while (1);
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives.-a So no more dodging the
    point:

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-
    defined, and consequently the rest of your paper.

    if i'm reading this correctly, bar now diverges (does not return)
    on the halting input foo

    i will clarify the definition for "partial decider": divergence is
    only allowed when both positive and negative returns would be false >>>>> positive or false negative respectively (aka undecidable input to
    the partial decider), so this would not quality as a partial
    halting decider


    So yet again you dodge the question on whether foo is "undecidable"
    by machine bar.

    bar is _not_ halting decider, partial or otherwise, so asking if the
    halting semantics of foo is "undecidable" to bar is a category fallacy

    wowee fallacy #8

    Nope, you committed the fallacy of moving the goalposts after I
    provided something that satisfied your arbitrary requirements in order
    to dodge the question.

    well if it isn't a decider than asking if an input is undecidable to it
    is a category fallacy, no???

    It is a decider by the criteria everyone else but you uses. You're just trying to avoid the question.


    and ur just completely misinformed about conventional computing theory.

    conventional computing theory only acknowledges total deciders, and recognizors, both of which _must_ return true for all positive input
    without producing _any_ false positives. recognizers may diverge on some false input, but neither are allowed false negatives. that's the
    established theory on the matter and if u disagree take it up with sipser.

    i'm proposing two more, which still are _not_ allowed to produce false positives. partial deciders are allowed to diverge on some positive
    input, whereas partial recognizer are allowed to produce false negatives (and never diverge),
    and both only in the case where the input is
    paradoxical (either return positive/negative would be false)

    No such thing, since all machines either halt or do not halt, and all
    deciders report either halting or non-halting for any given machine description.



    The exact code placed in function bar is irrelevant to the question.

    there is no basis for this claim in conventional computing theory, nor
    is what i'm proposing. classifiers for a particular semantic property
    are not just random-ass algos that happens to output correctly for some machines, there are specific interface constraints they _must_ meet

    There's no such thing as "happens to output correctly". Nowhere is
    there any requirement that an algorithm has to use any particular steps
    in order to map a mathematical function.





    That make that term ill-defined.

    the term is quite well defined: if a classifier/decider is stuck
    between returning a false positive and a false negative for a
    particular input, then that input is undecidable to the classifier/
    decider

    Category error.-a There is no "stuck between" doing two things.-a A
    classifier/decider does one thing and one thing only: what its fixed
    instructions tell it to do.

    handling input where responding either positive or negative would be
    false

    No such thing. All machines either halt or do not halt, and a decider
    returns either one or the other (if it returns) for any given machine.

    You still don't understand what defines a turing machine.


    is a real input scenario that must be handled by any actual
    machine attempting to accurately decide on other machines. i'm not describing what the machine is literally doing, i'm describing an
    objective mathematical reality of the decider's output space, when faced with paradoxical input


    Turing machines are defined by their instruction, not by where
    instructions physically reside.

    Your continued lack of response to this is telling.


    And not understanding that is your core mistake.-aThe same mistake made
    by PO.



    And because you whole paper is based on the use of that word, it is
    reduced to meaninglessness.

    a fallacy laden critique full of cognitive distortion and abuse is
    never going to convince me dud







    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, >>>>>>>>>> and therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    Are you sure?

    7.3 "It is these recorded side effects that the idealized human

    That implies the agent does in fact read the side record.

    lol are you trying to educate me about the paper i wrote??? yes i'm
    sure, as there is literally no need for the agent to read from the
    side record, as no halting decision for any turing machine requires
    doing so ... SO WHY WOULD HE???

    Then anything the agent does can be accurately simulated by a turing
    machine.

    do you understand that repeating the unproven ct-thesis at me is not a
    proof?

    Do you understand that not showing a concrete example of a deterministic algorithm that a turing machine can't do is not a refutation?

    if by concrete you mean expressible on a turing machine, that would be
    begging the question...

    -o7.6 defines the algorithm used by the agent, that is not implementable
    on a turing machine. you haven't yet commented on which step u think is "non-deterministic" about it





    the record is there to formalize the notion of computing a sequence,
    not because it's used for later computations. and not because we
    would actually want to compute the total halting set, that would be
    as bad as busy beaver, so far beyond practical. it's to prove that
    such computation exist in theory, so we know that proving so is
    possible for any given machine

    So nothing more than a log, and therefore irrelevant.

    it's information that is written down and therefore definitively
    computed.

    And if a human executes a fixed deterministic sequence of steps using
    only a machine description as input, a machine can run those same exact steps using a machine description as input and subsequently write down
    that same information.

    this is again begging the question by restating the ch-thesis


    if that isn't meaningful to you, then perhaps ur not really that
    interested in the theory of computing










    So choose how you're wrong:
    - The side record is not an input, so you have a non-
    determinstic algorithm that is irrelevant to church-turning >>>>>>>>>>> - The side record is an input, and your abstraction is broken >>>>>>>>>>> with your simulator not actually simulating itself.

    No response to this?

    nothing written to the side record is used further in the
    computation, so the agent never needs to read from it again

    "Again".-a So it does read from the side record.

    word-focus fallacy

    i won't respond to abusive belittling


    side record.-a In fact, you wouldn't have a whole section on it in
    your paper, otherwise anything in it could simply be derived from
    the agent's fixed algorithm.

    You've basically just confirmed that you're lying about what the
    agent does because you know you made a major fundamental mistake
    and won't admit it.

    bro unless u can tell me why the agent reads from the side record in
    the future, then he does not, cause he doesn't need to, and this
    line of trying to refute my paper is a failure



    now we're at 4 named fallacies, 1 named cognitive distortion, and >>>>>> 1 named abuse tactic

    I explained why some of them don't apply and your response was "nope,

    I guess that means you'd be OK with me just naming a fallacy when you

    it would be incredible if u named even just one





    talk about brain rot


    That makes it an input.

    Which means that when und_cir_sr calls sim_cir_sr(und_cir_sr)
    after calling Tdp, it's not simulating itself.

    That also means the agent is disqualified from being a halt
    decider/ recognizer, partial or otherwise.

    So your abstraction is broken.

    there is _no_ way to produce a total halting decider for turing

    Which is basically Turing's proof.

    so why are you trying to argue u can simulate the agent's
    computation ... u can't do so within turing machines

    If the agent is using *only* its fixed sequence of steps and a
    description of the algorithm to decide on to make a decision, which
    is what you now seem to be claiming, it can be exactly replicated.

    again just continually begging the question that the ct-thesis is
    true. u don't know have to proof of the assertion that all of
    realizable computing is encapsulated within turing machines,

    and u do not seem to be able to understand that u do not

    neither of those are correct: false dichotomy

    1) the agent does not read from the side record

    2) the agent does not utilize information from the side record
    while computing the decision for any given input machine

    neither apply

    I don't believe you.

    negative, and never allowed to diverge. we cannot build any >>>>>>>>>>>> non-trivial decider (within turing machines)

    a constant return 1 function, if use as a halting decider is >>>>>>>>>>>> abound in false positives and therefore is completely >>>>>>>>>>>> disqualified as being a halting decider.

    a constant return 1 function does not satisfy this for >>>>>>>>>>>> halting either, as again it's abound in false positives. >>>>>>>>>>>>
    in my paper i propose two more types:

    a constant return 1 function again still does not satisfy >>>>>>>>>>>> these requirements for halting

    i just defined my terms here quite clearly. i suppose i'll thank >>>>>>>> you for encouraging me to develop that, i'll may add it to my paper >>>>>>>>

    anyways, that was all covered in section -o5.2 which u never >>>>>>>>>>>> read

    i really don't know why i'm humoring you dud



    second, an actual paradox is necessarily undecidable due >>>>>>>>>>>>>> to the construction of the machine itself, the form is >>>>>>>>>>>>>> generalized in -o3 of my paper. if it doesn't fit that >>>>>>>>>>>>>> form, it's not a paradox, and is not undecidable in >>>>>>>>>>>>>> respect to any classifier let alone in totality

    Alright, let's satisfy your arbitrary requirement of a non- >>>>>>>>>>>>> constant function and "useful":

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 0;
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    Given that the first instruction of "foo" is not a "return" >>>>>>>>>>>>> instruction, bar(foo) will return 0 even though foo() will >>>>>>>>>>>>> halt.

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    No response to this?-a It goes directly to your definition of >>>>>>>>>>> "undecidable" which seems core to your argument.

    bar isn't a halting decider in the first place, no idea what >>>>>>>>>> it's supposed to be

    As noted above, it's a partial halt decider that reports
    halting if the first instruction is a "return" (0xc3 is the x86 >>>>>>>>> instruction "ret") and reports non-halting otherwise.

    Again, is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    It would be a shame to discard your whole argument just because >>>>>>>>> your terms aren't well defined.

    a partial halting decider is not allowed _any_ false positives >>>>>>>> or false negatives, it must handle the entire input space of
    machines without a _single_ false positive or false negative. >>>>>>>> that's not even my assertion, that's the established consensus >>>>>>>> on the matter

    clearly bar would have a ton of false negatives and thereby be >>>>>>>> disqualified as a partial halting decider

    Alright, let's satisfy one more arbitrary requirement to see if >>>>>>> we can get you to define your terms:

    void foo() {
    -a-a-a-a puts("hello");
    }

    int bar(void *p) {
    -a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a return 1;
    -a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a while (1);
    -a-a-a-a }
    }

    That takes care of the false negatives.-a So no more dodging the >>>>>>> point:

    Is the machine foo "undecidable" by machine bar?

    Failure to answer again will deem your term "undecidable" ill-
    defined, and consequently the rest of your paper.

    if i'm reading this correctly, bar now diverges (does not return) >>>>>> on the halting input foo

    i will clarify the definition for "partial decider": divergence is >>>>>> only allowed when both positive and negative returns would be
    false positive or false negative respectively (aka undecidable
    input to the partial decider), so this would not quality as a
    partial halting decider


    So yet again you dodge the question on whether foo is "undecidable" >>>>> by machine bar.

    bar is _not_ halting decider, partial or otherwise, so asking if the
    halting semantics of foo is "undecidable" to bar is a category fallacy >>>>
    wowee fallacy #8

    Nope, you committed the fallacy of moving the goalposts after I
    provided something that satisfied your arbitrary requirements in
    order to dodge the question.

    well if it isn't a decider than asking if an input is undecidable to
    it is a category fallacy, no???

    It is a decider by the criteria everyone else but you uses.-a You're just trying to avoid the question.

    i get that comp.theory is inhabited by a bunch of idiots, but
    conventional theory does not accept ur example as a "decider" partial or otherwise

    this a is a link to sipser's textbook on the matter (a name which u
    should recognize cause polcott was going on and on about he got a
    response once)

    https://broman.dev/download/Introduction%20to%20the%20Theory%20of%20Computation%203rd%20Edition.pdf#page=194

    conventional theory defines a /decider/ for turing-decidable languages
    and a /recognizer/ for turing-recongnizable languages ... nothing
    further has an acknowledged classifier. neither of these are allowed
    false positives or false negatives, while the recognizer only is allowed
    to diverge on some false input

    idk what to tell you dud, that's textbook on the matter



    and ur just completely misinformed about conventional computing theory.

    conventional computing theory only acknowledges total deciders, and
    recognizors, both of which _must_ return true for all positive input
    without producing _any_ false positives. recognizers may diverge on
    some false input, but neither are allowed false negatives. that's the
    established theory on the matter and if u disagree take it up with
    sipser.

    i'm proposing two more, which still are _not_ allowed to produce false
    positives. partial deciders are allowed to diverge on some positive
    input, whereas partial recognizer are allowed to produce false
    negatives (and never diverge), and both only in the case where the
    input is paradoxical (either return positive/negative would be false)

    No such thing, since all machines either halt or do not halt, and all deciders report either halting or non-halting for any given machine description.

    recognizers can diverge on some false input meaning they never output an answer, that is conventional theory. the halting set is
    turing-recognizable and we can build a recognizer for it even under conventional theory




    The exact code placed in function bar is irrelevant to the question.

    there is no basis for this claim in conventional computing theory, nor
    is what i'm proposing. classifiers for a particular semantic property
    are not just random-ass algos that happens to output correctly for
    some machines, there are specific interface constraints they _must_ meet

    There's no such thing as "happens to output correctly".-a Nowhere is
    there any requirement that an algorithm has to use any particular steps
    in order to map a mathematical function.

    ur program obviously diverges on all input except for a small fraction
    of positive halting machines without explanation or reason why beyond u bleating on and on about it not mattering for some bizarre reason






    That make that term ill-defined.

    the term is quite well defined: if a classifier/decider is stuck
    between returning a false positive and a false negative for a
    particular input, then that input is undecidable to the classifier/
    decider

    Category error.-a There is no "stuck between" doing two things.-a A
    classifier/decider does one thing and one thing only: what its fixed
    instructions tell it to do.

    handling input where responding either positive or negative would be
    false

    No such thing.-a All machines either halt or do not halt, and a decider returns either one or the other (if it returns) for any given machine.

    You still don't understand what defines a turing machine.

    ur not making even a semblance of sense to me anymore dud. yes ofc all machines either halt or not

    that fact is orthogonal to the paradox of a decider having to deal with paradoxical input where returning true causes the input machine to not
    halt, and returning false causes the input machine to halt. that is
    literally the foundational paradox justifying the proof of
    undecidability for the halting problem



    is a real input scenario that must be handled by any actual machine
    attempting to accurately decide on other machines. i'm not describing
    what the machine is literally doing, i'm describing an objective
    mathematical reality of the decider's output space, when faced with
    paradoxical input


    Turing machines are defined by their instruction, not by where
    instructions physically reside.

    Your continued lack of response to this is telling.

    what is it telling now?



    And not understanding that is your core mistake.-aThe same mistake
    made by PO.



    And because you whole paper is based on the use of that word, it is >>>>> reduced to meaninglessness.

    a fallacy laden critique full of cognitive distortion and abuse is
    never going to convince me dud







    Without an answer, this deems your use of the term unclear, >>>>>>>>>>> and therefore makes your entire argument null and void.

    causes the input machine to halt. that is literally the
    foundational paradox justifying the proof of undecidability for
    the halting problem

    You can use restricted programming languages or subsets (such as MISRA

    By banning unbounded loops and wild recursion, you ensure that every
    valid program in the language is guaranteed to finish

    that's why u gotta read the paper dud!

    what i show is that we don't need to restrict the computing power of the language, to gain total decidability of a language which can compute all that is computable! and prove that despite the computable enumerability
    of that language, it is logicalluy resistant to the undecidability
    paradoxes induced by diagonalization...

    the logic required to enumerate all turing-computable sequences,
    especially those involving self-references, is necessarily resistant to
    and cannot be used to compute either a total anti-diagonal, or even just
    a total diagonal. for every sequence that is computable, there must be
    an anti-sequence that is also computable. the existence of (sequence, anti-sequence) pairs defining the set of turing computable sequences contraindicates both a total diagonal _and_ a total anti-diagonal
    sequence from existing as a sequence that can be output by a turing
    machine. it will neither be found in the enumeration of all sequences,
    nor be definable using the logic required to enumerate those sequences.

    the closest to a true diagonal that is turing computable is one that is
    a direct diagonal across all sequences, except for producing anti-output
    to it's anti-sequence. and the closed to an anti-diagonal that can be computed is one that is the anti-output for all other sequences except itself!

    and no dud, u will not understand those words until u read the fucking paper! my next response will be to be read the fucking paper bro, i

    u are such a goddamn moron read the fucking paper Efy-Efy-Efy-


    see, what i've discovered is a method to enumerate all computable

    more incredibly than the church-turing thesis refutation of -o7.

    You still don't understand what defines a turing machine.

    you disagreeing with Turing's proof of undecidability now???

    Not at all.-a Just with your interpretation of it.-a You seem to think >>>> you're talking about a single machine.-a You're not.

    und = () -> {

    -a-a-a-a halt
    }

    what is halts(und) supposed to return?

    The machine und is not fully defined.-a All of its steps must be
    spelled out before that can be determined.

    yeah and if we try to fully define it, by defining what halts(und) does there are three possible results:

    - halts(und) diverges and doesn't return, causing und to also diverge.
    this would be the case if halts is specified to be recognizer

    - halts(und) returns false and then und halts. this would be the case if halts is specified to be a partial recognizer

    - halts(und) returns true and then und diverges. this would make halts
    not any type of classifier

    Which means we're talking about 3 different deciders which give the
    wrong answer to 3 different machines.


    there is no way to build a halt what would return an accurate decision
    on what und() does when run. that is the paradoxical dilemma that
    underpins all of undecidability within computing

    Not exactly. It is one way to show that any potential halt decider gets
    at least one case wrong. But it doesn't have to be constructed that way.








    that fact is orthogonal to the paradox of a decider having to
    deal with paradoxical input where returning true

    So we've defined decider X along with machine Y such that machine >>>>>> Y is implemented as making a call to decider X and X(Y) returns
    true and machine Y does not halt.

    which makes X not a halting decider. it returned a false positive,
    and no paradigm recognizes false positives as a valid specification >>>>> for halting deciders, partial or otherwise


    So we've at least defined machines X and Y.


    causes the input machine to not halt, and returning false

    Strawman.-a That's not decider X nor machine Y.

    No response to this?-a This is the core of your error.

    the core of my error changes with every post u write


    You're further proving that you don't know what a Turing machine is,
    meaning your whole paper is based on a false premise.

    i have no idea what ur talking about, that's for sure

    I'll make it simple for you:

    Are these the same machine?

    int foo(int x, int y)
    {
    -a-a-a-a return x*y;
    }

    int bar(int a, int b)
    {
    -a-a-a-a return a*b;
    }


    they should be the same machine, yes. what's the relevancy?


    Ah, so you DO understand that they're the same, defined by their actual instructions. Then you should be able to understand what follows.

    Let's take a look at a candidate halt decider:

    int x(void *p)
    {
    int result;
    {
    // machine bar
    if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    result = 1;
    } else {
    result = 0;
    }
    }
    return result;
    }

    The implementation is simple, but for now let's assume we haven't yet
    done any analysis on it and are trying to determine what it gets right
    and what it gets wrong.

    The following machine is another way to build the "paradoxical" input,
    and is in fact the method used in the Sipser proof that PO likes to quote:

    void y()
    {
    // machine foo
    void *p = y;
    {
    int result;

    // machine bar
    if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    result = 1;
    } else {
    result = 0;
    }
    }
    if (result) while(1);
    }

    Since a Turing machine is defined by its instructions, we can build
    another set of instructions that the first set gets wrong.

    The common programming language paradigm of using functions as modular components tends to confuse programmers looking at computation theory as
    to what actually composes an algorithm / Turing machine.

    It looks like something got snipped out of your thread: The kink to the outline!

    Here it is:

    on the nature of undecidability within computing

    preprint:

    <SNIP>

    Note: Not sure what text editor, if any, you're using, but you've made a
    mess on Usenet with your snipping, moderating, editing and manipulating
    the replies and comments on your own discussion topic.

    This is supposed to be a discussion with threaded messages, Nick.

    So, call me skeptical, but anyone who can't manage to input plain text into
    a threaded message application like Usenet, I have my doubts about your refuting any halting problems. YMMV.

    You might be a genius for all I know, but you might try a real newsreader
    like Thunderbird or xNews.

    Hope this helps.

    Not at all.-a Just with your interpretation of it.-a You seem to
    think you're talking about a single machine.-a You're not.

    und = () -> {
    -a-a if (halts(und))
    -a-a-a-a loop
    -a-a else
    -a-a-a-a halt
    }

    what is halts(und) supposed to return?

    The machine und is not fully defined.-a All of its steps must be
    spelled out before that can be determined.

    yeah and if we try to fully define it, by defining what halts(und)
    does there are three possible results:

    - halts(und) diverges and doesn't return, causing und to also
    diverge. this would be the case if halts is specified to be recognizer

    - halts(und) returns false and then und halts. this would be the case
    if halts is specified to be a partial recognizer

    - halts(und) returns true and then und diverges. this would make
    halts not any type of classifier

    Which means we're talking about 3 different deciders which give the
    wrong answer to 3 different machines.

    but they all the face the same dilemma with respect to trying to compute
    a halting decision

    the dilemma is defined by the potential execution paths which can be selected by the decider's output, not the actual path it does take. the paradox results from lack of a correct solution among all the potential paths. in fact adding/removing non-executed paths can add/remove the dilemma, affecting how deciders react to it

    What you're talking about is a design problem. Once a potential decider
    is implemented, what it does is fixed. "Potential" paths don't mater.



    there is no way to build a halt what would return an accurate
    decision on what und() does when run. that is the paradoxical dilemma
    that underpins all of undecidability within computing

    Not exactly.-a It is one way to show that any potential halt decider
    gets at least one case wrong.-a But it doesn't have to be constructed
    that way.

    all forms within computing result in a seemingly unsolvable dilemma









    that fact is orthogonal to the paradox of a decider having to >>>>>>>>> deal with paradoxical input where returning true

    So we've defined decider X along with machine Y such that
    machine Y is implemented as making a call to decider X and X(Y) >>>>>>>> returns true and machine Y does not halt.

    which makes X not a halting decider. it returned a false
    positive, and no paradigm recognizes false positives as a valid >>>>>>> specification for halting deciders, partial or otherwise


    So we've at least defined machines X and Y.


    causes the input machine to not halt, and returning false

    Strawman.-a That's not decider X nor machine Y.

    No response to this?-a This is the core of your error.

    the core of my error changes with every post u write


    You're further proving that you don't know what a Turing machine
    is, meaning your whole paper is based on a false premise.

    i have no idea what ur talking about, that's for sure

    I'll make it simple for you:

    Are these the same machine?

    int foo(int x, int y)
    {
    -a-a-a-a return x*y;
    }

    int bar(int a, int b)
    {
    -a-a-a-a return a*b;
    }


    they should be the same machine, yes. what's the relevancy?


    Ah, so you DO understand that they're the same, defined by their
    actual instructions.-a Then you should be able to understand what follows.

    i'm well aware


    Let's take a look at a candidate halt decider:

    int x(void *p)
    {
    -a-a-a-a-a int result;
    -a-a-a-a-a {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a // machine bar
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a result = 1;
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a result = 0;
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a }
    -a-a-a-a }
    -a-a-a-a return result;
    }

    The implementation is simple, but for now let's assume we haven't yet
    done any analysis on it and are trying to determine what it gets right
    and what it gets wrong.

    The following machine is another way to build the "paradoxical" input,
    and is in fact the method used in the Sipser proof that PO likes to
    quote:

    void y()
    {
    -a-a-a-a-a // machine foo
    -a-a-a-a-a void *p = y;
    -a-a-a-a-a {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a int result;

    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a // machine bar
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a if (*(unsigned char *)p == 0xc3) {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a result = 1;
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a } else {
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a result = 0;
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a }
    -a-a-a-a }
    -a-a-a-a if (result) while(1);
    }

    Since a Turing machine is defined by its instructions, we can build
    another set of instructions that the first set gets wrong.

    sure and you could have just written it like

    void y()
    {
    -a-a-a if (x(y)) while(1);
    }

    The way I wrote it gets rid of the "quine" construction, making it
    difficult if not impossible for a machine to identify "itself", which
    seems to be a major point in your analysis.




    The common programming language paradigm of using functions as modular
    components tends to confuse programmers looking at computation theory
    as to what actually composes an algorithm / Turing machine.

    the only thing i'm confused about is why u think this refutes anything
    about my paper


    What I don't get is why you think the agent writing its log to some
    "private" area makes it special over a machine simulating the agent
    coming up with the same decision and writing the same log to the tape.

    something using an algorithm, where an algorithm is purely mechanical sequence of deterministic steps which is guaranteed to lead one to the solution of the problem.

    Put somewhat differently, an algorithm is a sequence of steps which, if followed, will always lead to the correct solution even when followed by someone (or something) who has absolutely no understanding of the actual problem being solved.

    able to break down that step i suspect people will question (despite me
    giving demonstrations), into a more certain series of string
    transformations, which would be a stronger argument...

    but i'm at the point where i can't do further research without funding


    It's not clear to me that you share this definition.

    tbh i'm not dismissing tm-computing at all, i'm trying to increase it's utility by demonstrating that if we can encode an algorithm into a tm-computation, then it is certainly and totally semantically decidable objectively speaking

    in order to prove that paradox actually exist u need to compute what
    the paradoxical machine does, to then show that it doesn't match the
    output from the decider it is paradoxical in regards to.

    pseudo-random number generators are fully deterministic and therefore

    it is circle-free or not (they are obviously). for any decision ofc
    one needs a description of the machine including any input (like a

    turing machine, as they can only compute pseudo-random sequences that

    random you should have said that...

    seriously, bro: back to ur fractals, eh?

    You cannot predict a random number and you cannot solve the
    halting problem. Sigh.

    turing machines do not involve random numbers dud. if u knew
    literally anything about basic computing theory u'd know that.

    but u don't, so go back to ur fractals, eh?

    Well, ponder on CSPRNG?

    pseudo-random number generators are fully deterministic and
    therefore entirely decidable in terms of whether it the machine
    which produces it is circle-free or not (they are obviously). for
    any decision ofc one needs a description of the machine including
    any input (like a seed), and that combination can be used to decide
    on the semantics of the described computation

    when u say "random" that does not describe what can be produced by a
    turing machine, as they can only compute pseudo-random sequences
    that are inherently predictable, not truly random ones. if u meant
    pseudo- random you should have said that...

    seriously, bro: back to ur fractals, eh?


    You have no idea how to get around the halting problem.

    u have no idea what the halting problem even is, or the paradox that
    makes it undecidable

    and why anyone else isn't correcting u is just beyond me


    PO, its okay. We know way more about it. But, you already know about

    Remember my fuzzer code I made in AppleSoft BASIC? It only halts once
    every path of the program under question has been hit. This is NOT
    saying I solved the halting program, but its fun none the less, well
    according to me. ;^)

    It fuzzes the program until all paths are hit. Once that occurs, it halts.

    Maybe you could expand upon this. What exactly do you mean by "_our_

    innate ability are you referring to? And since you claim to reject
    the Church-Turing Thesis, perhaps you could define *exactly* what the

    tangled up in Church-Turing).

    producing/writing down a binary (or any) sequence in a deterministic
    manner with certainty. that is what computing most fundamentally is


    For me, when we talk about 'computing' something we mean to solve
    something using an algorithm, where an algorithm is purely mechanical
    sequence of deterministic steps which is guaranteed to lead one to
    the solution of the problem.

    Put somewhat differently, an algorithm is a sequence of steps which,
    if followed, will always lead to the correct solution even when
    followed by someone (or something) who has absolutely no
    understanding of the actual problem being solved.

    i think this is still just another reiteration of the ct-thesis that
    tm-computing can encapsulate all of computing.

    Since the description I gave doesn't even make mention of Turing
    Machines, I'm not sure how it can be construed as a restatement of Church-Turing.

    because ur assuming qualities of a turing machine, that the computer has
    zero fundamental understanding in any step of what it is computing. and
    ur assuming that after almost a century of "propaganda" (turing's word
    not mine) that turing's machines can effectively compute everything this
    is "intuitive computable" by humans. u've lost perspective that
    intuition can take place as part of a computation, just not a machine one

    and honestly that part that requires intuition right now may in fact
    have the kind of algorithm ur seeking ... i don't really have the time
    left to do further intensive research without funding


    tm-computing is an incredibly powerful tool for sure, but it's not
    able to compute all that is computable, necessarily as a side effect
    of the power it does have

    and if a man utilizes a level of intuition in a step while producing a
    sequence, i don't think that makes it not computing.

    'Intuition' clearly places something outside of the realm of algorithms
    and thus outside the realm of computation.

    idk what writing down a sequence in a deterministic manner with
    certainly is, except for computing the sequence

    besides "impossible" (which is again asserting the ct-thesis) what would
    u suggest that is???


    heck i might be able to break down that step i suspect people will
    question (despite me giving demonstrations), into a more certain
    series of string transformations, which would be a stronger argument...

    If you could reformulate 'intuition' as some deterministic sequence of mechanical steps, then we probably wouldn't want to call it 'intuition' anymore.

    Can you believe this is the same guy that wrote a paper refuting Alan
    Turing's halting problem and published it on a science forum for peer

    Too many magic mushrooms?

    To think - Nick could have been somebody.

    He published his paper on Turing's halting problem on computational, peer-reviewed websites, to be reviewed by his peers.

    But, no.

    He just had to open his big pie hole and get personal about the child

    ;^) Fwiw, I wrote about it in this group. Just a fun way to fuzz a
    program. It does not give a shit if it goes on forever or halts because
    all possible paths were hit. It keeps a counter for every path it finds
    during static analysis on the program source code. So, it tries to fuzz
    all on the conditionals. One counter per path. When all counters are
    non-zero, it says, we can halt for this accounting. That's all.
    Actually, fuzzing is fairly helpful for testing things... :^)

    Simply if we cannot hit all paths of a program, well, shit happens!

    Oh my. Please refrain from calling yourself God, PO.......

    It's a 5th grader response.

    You can use restricted programming languages or subsets (such as
    MISRA C, SPARK, or Rocq) that are not fully Turing-complete.

    By banning unbounded loops and wild recursion, you ensure that every
    valid program in the language is guaranteed to finish

    lol You solve the halting problem by saying all must halt?

    Nick came here to solve the Turing halting problem.

    Turing proved that no algorithm can universally solve the halting
    problem, establishing it as undecidable.

    So, Nick is basically PO?

    Apparently not - he said he lives in Silicon Valley, USA, not in the Philippines.

    seriously, bro: back to ur fractals, eh?


    You have no idea how to get around the halting problem.

    u have no idea what the halting problem even is, or the paradox
    that makes it undecidable

    and why anyone else isn't correcting u is just beyond me


    PO, its okay. We know way more about it. But, you already know
    about that? Right? If not. WOW!

    lol go back to ur fractals dud


    Remember my fuzzer code I made in AppleSoft BASIC? It only halts once
    every path of the program under question has been hit. This is NOT
    saying I solved the halting program, but its fun none the less, well
    according to me. ;^)

    The main thing is that you halted the input of BASIC into a text
    editor for your own amusement, and you realized how boring it would be
    doing that for a living somewhere in a dank basement for the rest of
    your life. YMMV.


    It fuzzes the program until all paths are hit. Once that occurs, it
    halts.

    Now you can write your paper and self-publish for review on Usenet.
    Now get to work, Chris!



    ;^) Fwiw, I wrote about it in this group. Just a fun way to fuzz a
    program. It does not give a shit if it goes on forever or halts because
    all possible paths were hit. It keeps a counter for every path it finds during static analysis on the program source code. So, it tries to fuzz
    all on the conditionals. One counter per path. When all counters are non-zero, it says, we can halt for this accounting. That's all.
    Actually, fuzzing is fairly helpful for testing things... :^)

    This s good news!

    This group has been needing a compiler ever since Ned passed away. Keep
    up the good work!


    Simply if we cannot hit all paths of a program, well, shit happens!

    Like I was telling Noah, it's not a matter of if we get hacked - its
    just a matter of when.

    You should read hours of PO nonsense as you are looking into a mirror.
