Both because if you haven't heard of the halting problem you shouldn't be writing code for a living, and because if you claim to understand the specifications when you clearly haven't done so, you're a liar.Arvind Narayananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02495762505427759752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8890204.post-27786549879941092092008-11-27T01:31:00.000-05:002008-11-27T01:31:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Arvind Narayananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02495762505427759752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8890204.post-31518226720034319442008-11-26T12:50:00.000-05:002008-11-26T12:50:00.000-05:00I agree with the person cited by Anonymous.

Look, look at these idiots who aren't privileged enough to get a good university education. Come, let's all laugh at them together.<BR/><BR/>It's not in good taste.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8890204.post-42587961170729097802008-11-26T11:46:00.000-05:002008-11-26T11:46:00.000-05:00Yes they did change it!

I can't find any responses by Godel or Cantor, just a naive response, one that points out the halting problem, and one that says "I think it is incredibly ignorant [sic] to post such a question with the purpose of mocking those who are not informed on Turing".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
