If it gets any more powerful, it might be able to solve the halting problem.
What
An infinite loop is usually caused by a programming defect. If you start a loop (for, do, while, etc…) and don’t give it a way to exit, the loop could keep processing forever.
Normally that is! But on this “super computer”, it’s so fast, it can finish processing an infinite loop in a few seconds.
That’s not really possible, since the loop is “infinite” and that’s what makes this humorous. The second part of the statement comes as a surprise.
Capice?
Oh. I thought there was something more. (That’s what I thought it was)
halt and catch fire
