Your job is to output the html of the current version (at the time of this writing) of the Wikipedia page for Kolmogorov complexity: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Kolmogorov_complexity&oldid=781950121&action=raw (backup)

This is , so the shortest code wins.

    \$\begingroup\$ I downvoted because I don't think this is an interesting challenge; there isn't much room for compression in my opinion. Other than maybe tags, not much can be done to compress it. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @HyperNeutrino Well, you could encode the abstract concept of kolmogorov complexity, and then train a neural net on generating wikipedia articles, and then feed in the kolmogorov complexity concept. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Jun 12, 2017 at 13:27

7zip file manager: 12,156 bytes

hex dump: here

how to use:

7zip e [savedfileName]

I'm posting this because it's about as small as you can get it without using HTTP calls.

Bubblegum, 12,290 bytes

Hexdump of solution.

Try it online! (you have to paste the hexdump yourself, it's too long to fit in 30k chars)
