Your being harsh on people is like a young child's tantrum, protesting at
things he doesn't yet understand. What you call "an easily verifiable
fact" is in fact a falsehood. Everybody else in this group has pointed
this out with explanations, and you have simply ignored these
explanations. It is overwhelmingly more likely that you are mistaken,
than that all these other people are wrong.

That you call people who disagree with you liars is nauseatingly
conceited. I think, though I can't be sure, you know you are wrong, and
this would make you the liar. The alternative, which I'm prepared to
believe, is that your intellect just isn't up to dealing with the
abstractions in the current topic, and your bluster is an attempt to
cover this up. If so, that is doomed to failure.

It is so dead obvious that when the C function H returns 0 on its input
(P,P) indicating that the correct simulation of this input would never
reach its "ret" instruction that this cannot be reasonably construed as
an honest mistake by my reviewers.

No, that would be a logically PRIOR step.

You can't assert what technically competent software engineers would
agree with until you have actually consulted some.

And let's be very clear, you are *not* a competent software engineer
even if you like to play one on usenet. Can you find an actual software
engineer with actual credentials who supports any of your claims? Until
you can produce such people you shouldn't be making any claims about
what they would or would not agree with.

And in the same way no one can possibly know that 2 + 3 = 5 until after
a universal consensus of all mathematicians has first been achieved. If
one psychotic mathematician disagrees than this forever puts in doubt
whether or not 2 + 3 = 5 is actually correct.

The correct x86 emulation of the input to H(P,P) conclusively proves
that this input P would never reach its "ret" instruction.

That people deny this easily verifiable fact makes them liars.
