Self-prediction and Disimplicature

From an online source:

"Note that this plausible yet unsatisfactory
treatment already assumes the impossibility of self-prediction for a program, and more
specifically, it assumes that a computer program’s future states cannot be calculated by
any method other than the direct execution of the program (that is, that no shortcuts or
speed-ups are possible)."
