Thought this result was already established so maybe it&#x27;s a new angle or simpler proofs? Obligatory Erik demaine linkage for those interested in more tho: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ocw.mit.edu&#x2F;courses&#x2F;6-849-geometric-folding-algorithms-linkages-origami-polyhedra-fall-2012&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ocw.mit.edu&#x2F;courses&#x2F;6-849-geometric-folding-algorith...</a> <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;erikdemaine.org&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;erikdemaine.org&#x2F;</a>

now the question is: what is the most complex* object that it is not turing complete?<p>* let&#x27;s say you have n distinct rules acting against a set S, the complexity is n.<p>p.s. probably something trivial exists such that you can take n as large as we wish to, so probably my definitions are not interesting.

I’ve thought origami was the way to prove p!=np for a while. Just waited for Erik Demaine to prove it though cause he’s like a billion times smarter than I am.

I built one that simulates folds -- <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;foldmation.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;foldmation.com</a>

So, then, protein folding is likely also possible to make Turing complete, no?
