    I wrote up a brief little note on this on my web. Comments are very welcome. This could be transported to the nLab if one wants.

    Very nice! I think it would be nice to have this on the nLab.

    In Lemma 1, should d(code(t))d(code(t)) be dcode(t)d\circ code(t)?

    That's pretty cool, Todd!

    Mike: yes, that’s what I meant. I granted myself a liberty of writing composition with an element code(t)code(t) as an application instead.

    Glad you approve, guys. Having spent a while looking at proofs online, it seems to me that the diagonalization argument is usually made to look harder than it actually is. :-)

    Another diagonalization argument (complete with reference to Taylor's aphorism) is at Cantor’s theorem. But it might be nice to have a page diagonalization.

    Okay, I started a page incompleteness theorem, and pasted in a corrected version of what I had written on my web as subsections. I’m not thrilled with what I’ve hashed out (in particular, I’m not sure how happy I am with the overall tone), but anyway it’s a start. Please, please feel free to add or improve.

    I’ve also done this in a hurry, because I need to start packing for a vacation tomorrow. So there are lots of places where links should be added in – sorry.
