In this thread, a bunch of people who don’t know about Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem and the halting problem. Math can’t do everything, guys.


Thanks, I'm very familiar with them both. They're irrelevant unless you can prove some natural phenomenon can solve the Halting problem. I'd love to see that.


The halting problem is not a problem, one doesn't gain anything by solving it and there's no requirement to solve it.
