gollark: I suppose that means you can get away with ones which are very rarely lossy.
gollark: Losslessness will be tested by randomly generating a lot of inputs and compressing and decompressing them, probably.
gollark: But that sounds like a few cryoapioforms in many ways.
gollark: Well, I could make the challenge be to make your own compression algorithm, with the constraints that there must be some inputs which it makes shorter and it must always be lossless.
gollark: Oh, I ignore that for ethical reasons.
