Straight up ML-KEM is not *known to be* patent encumbered. If someone has a patent on some part of it that didn't show up in the patent searches they did as part of standardization then they could have a claim.

"literally all nonviolent protest” could be considered evidence of rebellion. Is that your argument?
Hamilton: The president has determined there is a danger of a rebellion, and you must defer to that finding

Working on gnarly Rust in the day job and gnarly C++ and TypeScript in side-projects makes me realize, viscerally, that I hate everything. All of your type systems are bad, and yet entrancing.

I'd give up all that for a world without homophobia, but not a world without Enoch Powell. He may have been iconic and important but straight bigots before and after him could have managed to pick up most of the slack.
