This appears bugged:
> A Minsky program that adds register A into register B looks like:
> 1. DEC A; if A == 0 goto 3 else goto 2
> 2. INC B; goto 1
> 3. HALT
If A initially equals 1 it will be decremented and hit zero; the conditional triggers, and the program halts without ever incrementing B.
...which suggests that Jira is a Turing tarpit in which even the simplest programs are immensely difficult to implement correctly. Who knew?
