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.
gollark: Did you mean to respond in another channel?
gollark: Anyway, ideas for next challenge:- mathy thing- static file server (HTTP)- interpreter for a thing- word counter- Markov chains- compression of some form
gollark: It's very optimised.
