His math demonstrates how much of a life you don’t have if you could store the whole thing only in a single terabyte.

Let’s do the math together, shall we:

1 terabyte (1024x1024x1024x1024)
divided by 80 year lifespan
= 13743895347.2 bytes
divided by 364 days
37,654,507 bytes/day
16 waking hours/day
2,353,407 bytes
divided by 60 minutes
39,223 bytes/minute
divided by 60 seconds/minute
653 bytes/second.

There’s no way you’ll record everything about your life in 653 bytes/second. And that’s ignoring lossy compression, since then you wouldn’t be really recording “everything” and may miss out on the finer details of your life. HAR HAR.

Now all you’ll need is a ‘slicer’ for the film from MyLifeBits to play at your funeral and we can all be happy.
