When it is shown that these rules are inconsistent with themselves then
this inconsistency cannot be ignored and must be resolved.

No they are not. You simply do not believe that this repeating pattern
can be recognized by embedded_H even though you yourself already
acknowledged that it is an infinitely repeating pattern.

When Ĥ is applied to ⟨Ĥ⟩
Ĥ copies its input ⟨Ĥ1⟩ to ⟨Ĥ2⟩ then embedded_H simulates ⟨Ĥ1⟩ ⟨Ĥ2⟩

Then these steps would keep repeating:
Ĥ1 copies its input ⟨Ĥ2⟩ to ⟨Ĥ3⟩ then embedded_H simulates ⟨Ĥ2⟩ ⟨Ĥ3⟩
Ĥ2 copies its input ⟨Ĥ3⟩ to ⟨Ĥ4⟩ then embedded_H simulates ⟨Ĥ3⟩ ⟨Ĥ4⟩
Ĥ3 copies its input ⟨Ĥ4⟩ to ⟨Ĥ5⟩ then embedded_H simulates ⟨Ĥ4⟩ ⟨Ĥ5⟩...

The fact that embedded_H is applied to a copy of itself reveals
something new that conventional wisdom has never sufficiently accounted
for. No one has ever examined the notion of infinitely nested simulation
applied to the halting problem counter-examples prior to my analysis.

THAT A SIMULATION MUST BE ABORTED TO PREVENT THE INFINITE EXECUTION OF
THIS SIMULATION IS A CORRECT MEASURE THAT THIS INPUT SPECIFIES A
NON-HALTING SEQUENCE OF CONFIGURATIONS.

ALL THAT YOU CAN SAY AS A REBUTTAL TO THAT IS ESSENTIALLY
BLAH, BLAH, BLAH: I REALLY DON'T BELIEVE YOU.

Ĥ ⟨Ĥ⟩ depends on embedded_H aborting its simulation of ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩.
embedded_H cannot depend on anything else aborting its simulation of ⟨Ĥ⟩
⟨Ĥ⟩.

(a) You know that these two facts are true.

(b) You know that these two facts derive a different sequence of
configurations.

∴ any claim that these two sequences of configurations must be identical
is disingenuous at best.

Only if H never aborts.

SO either H never aborts, and makes an H^ that loops, but H doesn't
answer, and thus still fails, or

H does abort, and thus the infinite loop you just showed never happened.

The problem YOU keep on ignoring is that H needs to be a finite fixed
algorithm. WHen it is that, there is no problem, and there is always
definite answer to Halting ( H^ applied to <H^>) and H can never give it.

PERIOD.

And ALL You have ever said in rebuttal is that you refuse to believe
anyone, and will just ignore the actual RULES of the logic you are
claiming to work on.

This just shows that you are just lying about actually doing what you
claim and proves you have no truth in you.

Right, embedded_H can get no help in coming up with the right answer.

The CORRECT behavior of H^ is visable to use with meta-analysis, we KNOW
that H^ has been built contrary to H, so H will be wrong, but H can't
see that.

But the correct answer to what the correct simultation of <H^> <H^> does
is exactly dependent on what H^ applied to <H^> does. This mean that the
simulation of embedded_H NEEDS to be dependent on <H^> <H^>? which is
dependent on H^ applied to <H^> which is dependent on what H applied to
<H^> <H^> does, so to try to reason what you need to make H do, you need
to take its own behavior into account.

Now, once you make up you mind and decide on what you are going to code
into H, then we no longer have the question what should H do if it sees
and infinite loop, as H has already been programmed one way or the other,

Either H lets the loop goes, and actaully makes the infinite loop, but
fails by never answering, or

H does abort its loop, but that means the ACTUAL CORRECT simulation of
the H^ built on THIS H, will see its H do the same and Halt, so H is
incorrect.

You seem to forget this and try to build yourself a Schrodinger Turing
machine, which doesn't actually exist.

No, the CORRECT simulation of <H^> <H^> MUST have exactly the same
sequence of states as that actual exectuiton of H^ applied to <H^>, that
is the definition of a CORRECT simulatiopn.

If I was simply wrong then Wittgenstein would not have perfectly summed
up my view quoted on page 6 of my paper:

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/333907915_Proof_that_Wittgenstein_is_correct_about_Godel

Wittgenstein
Austrian-British philosopher who worked primarily in logic, the
philosophy of mathematics, the philosophy of mind, and the philosophy of
language. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_Wittgenstein

Wittgenstein understood these things on the basis of their philosophical
foundation rather than the learned-by-rote of logicians and
mathematicians. He understood these things at the deepest philosophical
level. He was very famous in his day for his knowledge of the philosophy
of logic.

If you think that I am incorrect then you would be able to explain the
specific error that Wittgenstein made.

Everyone presented with this challenge simply dodges and asserts that
Wittgenstein did not understand Gödel very well.

Also on page 7 of my paper is Gödel's own words that claim:

"Every epistemological antinomy can likewise be used for a similar
undecidability proof." In other words his proof has the exact same basis
as the liar paradox, that he refers to as the "liar antinomy".

I explain that the liar paradox is simply not a "truth bearer" because
it is self-contradictory.

Even one of the greatest minds on the subject of the liar paradox Saul
Kripke did not boil it down to this simple essence.

You never notice that this input never halts whether or not it is
aborted because halting is required to reach a final state.

Because you never notice this when it is reiterated countless times you
must either be a liar or have actual brain damage.

And you never notice that the CORRECT behavior DOES reach the final
state because you give up when your machine aborts it.

CORRECT SIMULATION == BEHAVIOR OF THAT EXACT MACHINE WITHOUT ABORTING.

I.E Correct behavior of the input <H^> <H^> IS the behavior of H^
applied to <H^> BY DEFINITION.

The copy of H with it still aborts, and lets H^ reach its end state.

YOu just lie about it because you dont know what truth is.

FAIL.

Maybe the issue is that you mind just can't handle the complexities of
the problem. Being able to base something on something isn;t the same as
just using it.

If you read the article carefully, you will note that his view changed
quite a bit over time, and it sounds like in the end he moved away from
'mathematics' and it sounds to me like dealing with things like
Computations (perhaps he realized that field didn't mesh with some of
his ideas).

Perhaps if you remember that we need to go by the ACTUAL definitions.
ANd the problem you run into is that there ARE precise definitions for a
lot of the things you try to talk about, but because you insist on
staying dumb on them (by refusing to actually study the basics), you get
them all wrong.

In particualar, there are very precise definitions for things like
Turing MAchines, Computation, the Halting Problem, correct simulation,
that you just keep messing up on. This just makes you out to be a liar,
since you refuese to learn the truth.

As I have told you at .east fifty times this never occurs:
embedded_H ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⊢* ⟨Ĥ⟩.qn

whether or not embedded_H aborts its simulation.
You either have brain damage or are a liar.

Like I said point out the specific error that Wittgenstein made (his
view is identical to mine) or admit that you are simply utterly clueless
about the deep analysis of these things, you only know them by rote.

Wittgenstein is quoted on page 6

Note, you can't say that embedded_H goes to H^.Qn 'wheter or not
embedded_H aborts its simulation'. By definition, it can only get there
if it DOES abort, and thus ALL copies of H applied to <H^> <H^> abort
their simulation.

And if embedded_H <H^> <H^> -> H^.Qn, then we have as a fact that the H^
applied to <H^> that this embedded_H is embedded into also goes to H^.Qn
and **HALTS**

And thus the CORRECT answer for HALTS(H^ applied to <H^>) is YES, and
thus H applied to <H^> <H^> needs to compute that mapping to be correct
and go to H.Qy, which it doesn't, so it is WRONG.

BY DEFINITION.

If you now want to claim that H^ applied to <H^> wasn't the input, yes,
technically the input is <H^> <H^> but the BEHAVIOR of that input is
defined by H^ applied to <H^> if you are working on the Halting Problem.

Thus, either you are lying about working on the Halting Problem, or you
are lying about what the requirements are, or you are lying about
H/embedded_H being a correct simulator.

In some way you must be lying because you are just WRONG.

FAIL.

Again, he is presupposing that True only means provable.

His Quote that you highlight:

'True in Russell's system' means, as wassaid: proved in Russell's
system; and 'false in Russell's system' means:the opposite has been
proved in Russell's system

is not a correct statement.

True means it is factually true.

False means it is factually false.

Our 'Knowledge' by having proved it doesn't matter.

The problem is the definition of 'True' as 'Provable' doesn't work in
Mathematics.

I gave you one exampe, the statement 'There exists a finite number such
that the series of number obtained by making the next number after an
even number x be x/2 and the next number after an odd number x will be
3*x +1, will never reach the value 1 and the repeating pattern 1, 4, 2,
1, ...'

This statement clearly must be either True, or it is False, either such
a number exists or it doesn't.

The fact that we haven't been able to prove the statement either way
doesn't remove that fact. It is still either True or it is False.

(or we can look at the pair of statements, There exists a finite number
..... and There does not exist a finite number ....)

So we don't have knowledge of the answer, but we know it exists.

For some problems like this, (Like the Halting Problem) one side, if it
is true MUST be provable (if M w halts, then just simulating it for some
finite number of steps show that it halts), so if the answer actually is
unprovable, it MUST be non-halting, which means that we must not be able
to actually prove that it is un-provable, and that continues going out
forever.

This shows that a system that requires True to be Provable must be less
powerful than Mathematics (which actually is an established fact, we can
create logic system with the defintion that something is only true if it
can be proven, and they are less expressive than the mathematics of the
natural numbers).

Which means that either embedded_H never gets to H.Qn (which says you
claim that embedded_H -> H.Qn is a LIE), or embedded_H aborts its
simulation, and thus the fact that ITS simulation (which in now
incomplete) isn't 'proof' of non-halting, and if we do an ACTUAL correct
simulation we find that the CORRECT simulation of <H^> <H^> does reach H^.Qn

Which is embedded_H? it can't be both, that is double minded, which is
not allowed.

So then what could 'True in Russell's system' mean ???

Note that Haskell Curry is quoted before Wittgenstein has a comparable
notion of what "true in a formal system" means.

Let 𝓣 be such a theory. Then the elementary statements which belong to
𝓣 we shall call the elementary theorems of 𝓣; we also say that these
elementary statements are true for 𝓣. Thus, given 𝓣, an elementary
theorem is an elementary statement which is true...

Olcott's true in a formal system 𝓣 is exactly Curry's elementary
theorems of 𝓣 and statements of 𝓣 derived by applying truth preserving
operations beginning with Curry's elementary theorems of 𝓣 as premises.

When you start with truth and only apply truth preserving operations you
always necessarily end up with truth.

Remember, the statement says (in effect) P is not provable, thus the 'in
Russell's system' means that provable is defined per Russell's system.

And that definition is PRESUMING the definition of True means provable.

That is NOT the actual definition of True, at least as far as

You'd have to ask Wittgenstein that.

You'd also have to ask him why he felt this had any relevance to Gödel's
Theorem since Gödel's paper doesn't use the expression 'True in
Russell's System'. In fact, it does not mention or discuss truth at all.

As has been pointed out to you, the Wittgenstein quote you are so
enamoured with was taken from a set of notebooks which were never
intended for publication. They were essentially Wittgenstein 'thinking
out loud', and contain both worthwhile ideas which he later expanded
upon and published as well as half-baked ideas which he clearly came up
with before his morning coffee.

We'll never know how Wittgenstein came to view this particular paragraph
if he later revisited it, but there are two things of which we are
absolutely certain.
