Where specifically in New York? Which legal practice?

You do realise that a separate contract that stipulates that they'll terminate their relationship with you if you breach its terms is fully within the federal and state statutes.

A business has the right to terminate you as a customer. The GPL cannot force a business entity to provide their services to you.

Grsecurity is not a contributor to the linux kernel (Linus rejected their work), and is not a participant in the Joint Work that the Linux kernel is.

That's why Red Hat can do it.
And Grsecurity cannot.
Copyright law 101.

I implemented LZW-like dictionary compression and (non-adaptive) canonical Huffman entropy coding in my exploration of compression

I'm still not clear on how you decide things like alphabet size for entropy coding. I've read that things like LZ77, LZ78, BWT, BPE, RLE, MTF, etc. are really data transforms that (I think?) should make data more amenable to entropy coding, but it seems like your choice of alphabet size and specifically "what" you apply entropy coding to matters a lot, since the distribution of input symbols will determine if you get any compression from it.
Interestingly, Huffman(text) < Huffman(LZW(text)) < LZW(text) for the ~18kB of English text I'm testing with.

I have variable bit length codes in from LZW that get serialized into a byte sequence, but the LZW codes (that have structure relative to each other) will straddle byte boundaries, so I'm guessing this is why just applying Huffman coding to the serialized bytes doesn't work very well, since it's kind of seeing mangled fragments of the longer codes. I imagine if I only entropy coded the 8-bit symbols in the LZW code stream it would work better (since the symbols that appear in the text are a small subset of ASCII), but I think it would require more coupling between the LZW encoder/decoder and the Huffman encoder/decoder. For example, when the LZW decoder is about to read a symbol, where it currently reads a fixed 8-bits, it would need to call the Huffman decoder to read a single code out since the codes are variable length. Encoding also gets more complicated.

>New non-monetized channels are being given a chance and pushed to the front

Really i feel like its just major channels not getting every drop and its pissing them off. Im happy with the new YouTube, my channel grew more than 1K subs and 100s of thousands of views in only 2 months.

California Linux-killer age verification bill back from the dead. It looked like it was dead for the year (sent to suspense file), but it came back and advanced.

https://legiscan.com/CA/text/AB1043/2025

Summary:
- Operating systems must provide a digital age signal, and must provide an update that acquires the age signal in the first place.
- "Stores" (including just simple websites) must check this signal.
- "Developers" (not stores, but the app developers themselves, somehow) must also check this signal. This part is particularly baffling, but makes sense if you think about it from the retard lawmakers perspective "facebook is an APP, meta needs to check your age before you use it!"
- None of this is predicated on any sort of "adults-only" app or content. It's everything.
- It specifies no specific standard so you can be sure tech companies will push for some kind of "environment integrity" bullshit that Linux can't provide.

So like, somehow the developers of vim need to check your age before you can install it from apt. And if they push hard enough on the "secure" part of it, they could just say "Linux is not secure and can't be trusted to supply a valid signal."
