2007 french documentary "Suck my geek!" featuring Mark Karpeles (self.Bitcoin) Current posts are mostly speculations about (Mt)Gox and Mark Karpeles. Here is something else for a change, a documentary featuring Mark Karpeles himself. Not terribly interesting, but non speculative... Feel free to provide a better translation if you believe it is inaccurate. My notes are [ enclosed ]. Excerpt 1 MK: "In the real life, if I want to talk to someone in the subway, I'm nothing more than an anonymous person, while if I go on the net, I'm MagicalTux" don't worry mark, you are no longer an anonymous person, now people will want to talk to you and I'm not sure being MagicalTux will help Excerpt 2 To contextualize, discussion is about interpersonal skills shortcomings: MK: "For me it was a bit different, since I was rejecting others. In the beginning, I vaguely tried to discuss with others, When I was in 6th grade [age 11] I was talking about quantum physics, and I didn't find a lot of people to talk about it. It was a bit complicated." you don't reject Mark, he rejects you... Excerpt 3 MK: "Me for example, I have lots of girlfriends, but they are in jpeg, png or even in avi" (switch to someone else) MK: "Or in CD" Excerpt 4 MK: "What is special with my mom is that, as of today, she is on the internet, she plays games, she create game servers, she has rather geeky activities. Originally, it was her who let me start to program 3 years ago [or at 3, I can't tell]. I cannot imagine a life without computers, currently it is not possible. In the morning, I have to check my emails, check that my servers are ok, chat with a few people before heading to job. Then of course, my job is working with computers, so I'm on a computer during the whole day, then in the evening same thing, I code, I verify stuff, I watch anime to rest". MK opens computer case and jokes: "We have been together for the last 3-4 years. [unintelligible]" MK plays with his gyroscope toy. MK: "I spent some time completely disconnected from the [real] world. I had created my company which was a way to earn money, working for other companies that I didn't knew over the internet." More gyroscope porn: "It slipping a bit out of my hand". MK: "It even happened to me to spend a few days in a row in front of the computer, without moving, only eating stuff that was at arm's length. I spent maybe 5-6 months without going outside. Even more gyroscope: MK: "There of course, it moves in every direction. And if we look at the display, my score is 11284. There it is. We spend our time behind a keyboard, which is not very physical, this provide some strength in the arm for when you have a computer to carry and not be taken by surprise." Game. MK: "All the people I know, I first met them on the internet. We chat, occasionally we meet, it's a bit like if we were living 2 lives at the same time." Excerpt 5 MK: "[unintelligible] it was the first time I went out to have a drink after work. It was a nice experience, but..." (quick switch to 2 other guys) MK: "Today, society provide means for someone to live without ever leaving his house"

Greed is eternal posted:didnt look at that php code but is it mt gox backend/trading engine? or is it just front end stuff? The single class leaked so far is backend wallet manipulation code. It isn't the trading engine, or the bits that have the txid repeat vulnerability, or the hot/cold wallet transfer stuff.

When banks made terrible decisions like Mark did they got bailout bonus checks -- I'm betting not giving bonuses works out better (self.Bitcoin) submitted 3 hours ago by bruce_fenton The argument of bailout bonus supporters was that the executives at these banks should be rewarded for bad decisions. One firm had bonuses of over $9 billion and single executives at banks which should have gone under were awarded over $100 million. There will be no such bailout for Gox and certainly no such bonus for Mark. Citizens who had nothing to do with Gox will not be forced to pay for its mistakes. The company will not be propped up and protected by government. In a decentralized Bitcoin economy a failure like this....painful and hard as it is for those directly affected as it may be....is isolated and contained. I'm betting this method will work out better in the long run. [–]Poop_is_Food 3 points 2 hours ago Please show me where anyone made that argument ever [–]bruce_fenton[S] -1 points 1 hour ago Seriously? Everyone who supported the bailouts...that's exactly what the bailouts did. They can couch it in some other excuse of "too big to fail" and far fetched theories of it being needed to "save the economy" but the reality is that this is exactly what the bailouts did... They took money from citizens and gave it to bankers as a reward for failed decisions. [–]Poop_is_Food 3 points 1 hour ago I will patiently await your citation. [–]bruce_fenton[S] -1 points 1 hour ago Citation? Every. Single. Person. Who. Supported the bailouts. Are you just a Reddit troll or are are you actually honestly unaware that there was a thing called the TARP bailout in which $700 billion was given to failed bankers? [–]Poop_is_Food 4 points 1 hour ago I want a citation of someone saying something to the effect of "executives at these banks should be rewarded for bad decisions."

Dr. Honked posted:i'm still boggling about the fact that gox's actual money also got lost somehow still rather support the conspiracy theory that gox lost enough coin to malleability that it was obvious that they were hosed, and the lack of means to control bitcoin, and the general ineptness of gox, meant all employees basically faced the situation "we are hosed and will be blamed for losing peoples money no matter what, but we still have millions of dollars that i could steal without anyone actually having a chance of knowing..."

Pretty sure there's a play fort at Mt. Gox made from brand new Herman Miller Aeron chairs. They're an agile tech startup with the revolutionary idea their employees should be happy and have Nerf gun fights. They reconciled their accounts by going in the Aeron chair fort and imagining what the numbers on the spreadsheets should have been.
