Run_synthesis(): When Code Becomes Ontology (pastebin.com)

This is not a typical algorithm.

It doesn’t solve a problem — it resists being solved.

It models a system where an object (U) refuses to be fully formalized by a stable observer (S), and where this failure itself becomes the only possible form of existence — as seen from a meta-system (R).

It’s not about output, it’s about persistence under observation.

The code doesn’t return a value. It becomes the trace of something that cannot collapse.

I’d be curious to see how others interpret what this means — both for computation and for the definition of “real”.
