Therefore, you should agree that HHH cannot possibly simulate itself correctly. That is what the semantics of the x86 teach you. There is no disagreement about the semantics of the x86, if you see that it means that HHH cannot possibly reach its own 'ret' instruction, therefore, the simulation cannot possibly be correct. > > I can't tell that you are ignorant or a liar and it is reaching > the point where I don't care which it is. >
