That's the simplified version of 發啟第十二 from your [D] 1. Cultivate virtue 2. ??? 3. Profit Although 不在天时 suggests that the sovereign can engage at a time fully of his choosing, contra vS. (though maybe concurrent with Sasha) This is already (!!!???) contradicted in the expansion: 太公曰:「王其修德以下賢,惠民以觀天道。天道無殃,不可先倡;人道無災,不可先謀。

I'm reading those last 16 (out of context, with minimal hanzi-fu) as:

天道無殃,heaven's-way no harm

不可先倡;cannot initiate

人道無災,people's-way no disaster

不可先謀。cannot plan

(Following the) way of heaven: come out unscathed, but we (neither heavenly nor omniscient) can't even start upon this path. (Following the) way of humanity: (suffer setbacks but) no disasters, we (can trace out these paths by seizing* opportunities and avoiding calamities, but) can't plan (our exact steps in advance).

Circling back to Turing: the gods can solve the halting problem, but we just have to evaluate the small-step semantics and see what happens?

No, in context it's totally different. My bad, sorry!
