... http://arxiv.org/abs/0907.5598 It my understanding is correct, it dooms any hope that a computable mind could experience unbounded happiness, where "happiness" is defined as an increase in utility. I ... these all involve alternative utility functions, all of which are bounded. Perhaps, then, friendliness is not computable, and we should just give up and let evolution do what it's going to do. ...
... to an arbitrary question of this form. Of course, there are computable upper limits. Is MDL an upper limit for the entropy? Is MDL computable? Stands to reason, then, that different methods will find different MDLs.... the MDL for a certain bitstring is? "MML is typically a computable approximation... absolute complexity." -- Wikipedia http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~dld...

In a savage world waxing fat in snow-baths arrow-straight in papoose-slings a moving natural thing in a desolation to which generations and centuries of forebears had given it birthright. But Mйlisse was like her mother. In the dreams of the two who were planning out her fate she was to be a reincarnation of her mother. That dream left a ray of comfort in Cummins' breast when his wife died. It ...
... towards a string of others. Isn't it amazing, how poignant, frenzied sentiments holding human relationships together... could easily be recast in unlimited ways. Like mass production and industrialization; we're all Kens and Barbies - substitutive plastic parts of computable value. Still, it's the most sung-about, exalted, revolutionized concept the Earth has ever witnessed. I wonder why?
... up the Red Sea and clear to Napoli. I lived a healthy life exercising and getting tan every morning sleeping afternoons playing poker at night. There are many people who do not. Know the odds (poor but computable) for improving a poker hand in the draw but are anxious to learn. When we got to Italy I had a beautiful tan and a sizable nest egg. Early in the voyage someone went broke and wanted to ...
..., those that pose a threat to social values and order– would be unsolvable even today. One of Turing's mathematical jokes was that he didn't want to be "remembered for unsolveable problems" (a pun on the content of his famous paper "On Computable Numbers", that introduced the Turing machine to the world). In this, as in so many things, he saw a great deal further than anyone else.
...minimal upward nor minimal downward covering sets
(even when guaranteed to exist) can be computed in polynomial time unless P=NP.
This sharply contrasts with Brandt and Fischer's result that minimal
bidirectional covering sets (i.e., sets that are both minimal upward and
minimal downward covering sets) are polynomial-time computable.

...of structured polynomial eigenproblems solved by structure preserving linearizations. (arXiv:0907.2545v1 [math.NA])
Authors: Bibhas Adhikari , Rafikul Alam
First, we derive explicit computable expressions of structured backward
errors of approximate eigenelements of structured matrix polynomials including
symmetric, skew-symmetric, Hermitian, skew-Hermitian, even and odd polynomials.
We...
...projects. Our project managers carry out onsite functional specification document of requirements. They ensure the offshore development team has a tube of work orders to zero out idle time. They ensure constant computable delivery on or ahead of plan throughout our commitment to bring great products to market in less time and at less cost.
