gollark: Maybe you can make it smaller if you strip out all the random historical retroviruses and retrotransposons. Unless it's analogous to really poorly written code and needs all of it or it'll break mysteriously on line 173012.
gollark: I mean, it's still probably small enough to fit on a cheap USB stick.
gollark: Epigenetic whatever?
gollark: I think I have Minecraft worlds bigger than a human genome somewhere.
gollark: Wikipedia says "3,100 Mbp (mega-basepairs) per haploid genome6,200 Mbp total (diploid).", so that seems right.
