So, you fail to prove the category error.       It should report about the program specified in the input. This       specifies a halting program. If the decider fails to see that, it is       incorrect. In this case we can present exactly the same input to other       deciders and we see that they correctly report the halting behaviour.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
