To put it back in Brooks’ language, accidental creep is fine — provided you add some resource. Essential creep is not. Adding the french language prompts to a project in Engl

Roger Penrose gives a three-page example in The Emperors New Mind, and Stephen Wolfram has implemented one using a cellular automaton with as few as five component parts. A Halting Program running on such a machine should be able to co
