lolwut ? How do you make the difference between a program that won't
terminate ever and one that will terminate eventually (say, in several
years) ?
1. The halting problem does not apply to finite resources. The proof is
trivial: just record all state. You are in an infinite loop when you
revisit a state your program already has been in. The halting problem
only applies if you have non-finite storage.
Somebody please give him a T-shirt :o).
