Here it is: configuration file. Is it code or data? Well, both. Furthermore, hypothesis is that every configuration file has a tendency to develop to the point it is written in Turing complete programming language. This interesting idea can be generalized and varied on many ways. It is not my idea, it is part of the folklore in my local hacker community. Thanks to Marcell Mars who contributed to its formulation and brought it to my attention. |

I dont think so.
Configuration file is a data .
Something like a Scite "configuration file" is a script, not a data.
From my point it is natural if every config script (earlier or later) becomes a turing-complete language.
