   Principle 1: Turing machine deciders compute functions   
   from finite strings to {accept, reject} according to   
   whether the input has a syntactic property or specifies   
   a semantic property.   
      
   The halting problem requires that a halt decider   
   report on the direct execution of a Turing machine,   
   thus category error.

       reliably computable.

              This required establishing a new foundation
