That is not true at all. You do not need to generate a spec. All you need to do is prove a property. This can be done in many ways. For example, many things can be proven about the following program without having to solve any general probl

The theory you’re alluding to says it is impossible to create a general algorithm that decides any non-trivial property of any computer program. There is nothing in the theory that prevents you creating a program that verifies a particular

Previously in the DOS era, “terminal” would allow you to render to the video buffer directly and it allowed for an ecosystem of text GUI apps to flourish. Right now, this is largely impossible because modern terminals are really emulators a
