I don’t understand the claim that Kolmogorov lower bounds are uncomputable. Three digit strings are unlikely to run as a program so surely 3 is a lower bound on Kolmogorov of the first million digits of pi, no? To tighten bound, one would need to try out every 4-digit program, every 5-digit program, and so on. Either these produce the first million digits of pi or they don’t when the program is run, so each possibility is checkable in finite time, no? There must be something I’m missing here.

How long is the program which enumerates all N-digit programs?
