SNPedia is like 23andme, except every night SNPedia reads PubMed abstracts to see if it can determine information about more SNPs. So, I believe it now gives information on 10x as many SNPs as 23andme, because it groks a lot more medical research.
SNPedia has a mode where you do not even need to upload your data to them, instead you simply download the program and run it locally. But, regardless, you need to get your DNA, and 23andme is the cheapest option for doing so.

that's not a smartarse, that's quite genuinely funny (ymmv)
Here are some edits that are not humorous, but would actually improve the DNA:

This issue is smartarse:
"No instructions on how to build"

Is it funny because it's funny, or is it funny because this will probably happen (in all seriousness) for real one day?
(rhetorical musing question)
Yes.
It is going to happen.
And also we'll see more people asking for changes on appearance than health.
it's funny because I bet this is how the Eugenics Wars/World War III started in Star Trek.
wow; that's a blast from the past but that war was middle-asian, wasn't it?
Not funny at all. I have copied everything. I will now make his CLONE. muhaahaaaa!! (and malicious grin ;)
