gollark: This isn't a paradox. It can't simulate arbitrarily large CGoL grids.

gollark: Nope! Many languages, abstractly speaking, *don't* have limited memory. Their implementations might, though.

gollark: No, Turing completeness means it can simulate any Turing machine. It *can't* do that if it has limited memory.

gollark: I don't know exactly what its instruction set is like. But if it has finite-sized addresses, it can probably access finite amounts of memory, and thus is not Turing-complete.

gollark: *Languages* can be, since they often don't actually specify memory limits, implementations do.
