TMDB episode metadata
caea33cd-4ec2-40f0-8514-34a1ea5c2918.gif
I'll rip your dick off, you son of a bitch!
af30e7b4-8bf1-4231-aac4-9860bf860f8c.gif
My eye!
8d13a647-a6c6-4376-bdbd-56ad0f251a1b.gif
On behalf of the entire Disrupt conference,
46d2674a-ccf6-4c55-8ca1-de2fd2804ce1.gif
I would like to apologize for what happened out there this afternoon.
ce766a44-0b15-4180-a765-80a5f6a9e117.gif
This man will never be asked to judge again.
d8a95069-174b-4777-928b-64b07c7085e7.gif
I've just learned he's been, uh, fired from Oracle,
931cb3c7-55ce-4d6b-b37a-02310bde90b5.gif
and apparently his wife left him.
698e01dc-0165-4b59-85ca-846702d15275.gif
Anyway, I just got a call from your attorney, Mr. LaFlamme,
d9e3fb81-fc9a-4b3f-acf0-d62943805792.gif
informing me that in his view, this incident is actionable.
bbf5d2bc-d1d0-48e0-8b08-4037fd279186.gif
Uh, and in addition to holding TechCrunch liable for any damages,
eae164bf-86cf-4a35-a798-1a3ea24fd7fc.gif
which may include the loss to Pied Piper
6272fa7a-2713-40c0-a810-0601004eba2b.gif
of potentially billions in revenue and share value, uh,
afbc6582-84d4-41a5-b870-1106d20f2984.gif
he may be naming me personally in a lawsuit.
c5db4c2e-cff4-45c3-9cba-5c69476c2973.gif
So, I would like to propose that we, uh, put this incident behind us,
61928e51-6aab-48b9-86b0-d6113cdca968.gif
legally speaking, uh, by sending Pied Piper directly through to the finals
da093382-1724-44da-9aff-2590f5ff3097.gif
of Startup Battlefield, where you will compete for the grand prize.
6b0a2069-27b5-45a0-bb32-f0083d5ef4d1.gif
- How does that sound? - I think that's...
b91aa690-7666-45d0-b075-173c2198aab1.gif
One question, uh, regarding our hotel accommodations?
4cfda131-05a5-4d53-b647-b0d187754a8d.gif
Barn! Am I right, guys?
be06fdd2-250f-44c8-b766-a8538cd28454.gif
I was just happy you got punched in the face, Erlich,
e4280435-6751-4d2b-abb0-034d3ce81582.gif
but now I'm super happy. I feel like I won twice.
52a80e99-a9fd-46c2-b4ba-f0ab8c948092.gif
I'm gonna disrupt this bathroom.
e2815400-45de-460c-bf5a-ee18385d9021.gif
I don't think this couch pulls out. I guess I'll get myself a roll-away bed.
13521da2-e8a6-4abc-8eba-c5ce69d8cb0a.gif
I mean, you're welcome, guys. I had to fuck a wife and take a punch,
827e9485-cdb9-43d2-933c-6f26686cdffe.gif
but now we get to go into the finals tomorrow
60a30e62-40b6-4267-b388-eb5d52cf981a.gif
without having blown our wad in the prelims.
55705254-9474-4785-8ffa-952f28f3d67c.gif
We're trending up, boys. We are trending up.
c615126f-5fac-43d4-a1a7-faaa7053787f.gif
Maybe you're right. But, uh, we should probably
e5343a5c-d01b-4c15-8252-1ea85909c95d.gif
get back down there and check out the competition.
9dcebcf2-ab1d-4669-bdb5-91a6ef1d5b06.gif
- Ladies and gentlemen, Gavin Belson.
26302300-68ce-489a-abca-d54e63e64850.gif
No matter what you may have heard, size matters.
02e4d177-64cc-41db-babc-412d10de8afa.gif
Welcome, everyone, to a journey into the Nucleus.
29dd337e-7fc4-4e0d-820c-fea6a9363afd.gif
I hope this sucks.
a23e1803-8981-433d-ae6e-b8c92f4d4897.gif
Nucleus will provide the most diverse features
19e0c06d-f230-4ce8-a7c3-e93f2fb6f6a9.gif
ever assembled in a cloud-based compression suite.
93a7beb1-221d-4eb5-b7ca-c8a8230cd5b0.gif
Massive functionality, inter-connectivity,
3cde91da-5e9d-4ee4-911d-170d0a8d5d1a.gif
and the simplicity one has come to expect from the Hooli family.
f6229bf1-bb8f-4b1b-8b52-35b714185fa8.gif
We're making all your files available for lightning-fast download.
3c76df0d-2e63-48fb-8b10-e254af958f61.gif
Accessible from any device.
6db5a2cd-0d75-48ee-8ad5-3d7ced0ed8c3.gif
AH these features will be seamlessly synced to Hooli-mail,
230cb2a0-0135-4bd3-8d3f-74f27873b9dc.gif
Hooli-search and the full suite of Hooli computing power.
67fd4574-d201-4b24-bcd1-c0ba710f3268.gif
That's a lot of functionality.
cb264452-056c-4140-8939-ef0314972a7a.gif
Don't worry, he can't come close to our Weissman score.
1fb4f83f-9ac3-4ddc-8d04-689d03cf3425.gif
Even with all this extra shit, it's like a fancy car with a crappy engine.
a9e534fc-e263-416b-a446-523065608508.gif
And now, for the moment of truth.
040d4acd-788d-4663-beb9-c93f52d06984.gif
As you will now see, our Weissman score is the best in the history of compression.
01238e18-ebdf-4b27-8438-1517d4bfb5f3.gif
What the fuck?
346b45ae-3a51-46d9-b83b-a79df54195db.gif
That's exactly the same score as us.
e97927c2-f744-49ed-a893-24ad67868c65.gif
2.89. That is not an error.
63aa96d4-94d3-49ea-8b14-05e985a555b3.gif
We are breathing rare air here, operating at the limit for lossless compression
cfb5b992-7bd9-45f5-ab96-0abb1d04b017.gif
in audio, video and data.
1e82f9bd-8f15-4382-a1e3-59f44618bb10.gif
Anyone who tells you that their platform is faster than ours better have good lawyers.
1efbefc6-0004-4809-b7d7-3284e6a50cb0.gif
I hope you've enjoyed your journey into the Nucleus.
f2a4c2fc-1c2c-43a8-85be-8c5882091187.gif
We have the speed. We have the features. And we have...
47b47172-7503-4a76-82d1-34f8a9f4fd44.gif
Shakira!
8081d378-2ce1-4655-a183-a6a8535f20a4.gif
Hola, TechCrunch!
94c6f0f6-9ecb-4e84-8ade-99f075c53056.gif
I mean, they just completely
a4bc2645-7cfe-44e5-bb22-56976bc2b827.gif
reverse-engineered our entire compression engine.
8e0b4e01-b00c-4c95-8844-436239588d1b.gif
He totally sniped us.
2f27214c-93fa-44a7-be02-2ae4d49a7457.gif
- We'll be fine. - What?
390d97dc-3008-448d-bc7e-84d998637a7e.gif
They judge this contest on viability in the marketplace.
b9717aab-6120-4feb-b031-a987703e865d.gif
I mean, at best, we're a worse version of Nucleus.
de80ce23-04a5-4fed-84ae-0ee9cb7c0377.gif
I mean, they have 50 modules, and they're all awesome.
0ee187bc-994d-42ae-b7b8-b19bbc59e1df.gif
We have five that barely work.
64a1b2d8-2b00-42bb-954f-2644d4cece3a.gif
I mean, we're still having trouble compressing 3-D files. Who's lining up to buy that?
8cb4da6f-8d1d-4051-b5b5-c99895c9ba17.gif
Who the fuck cares?
75bff5d6-e644-45d7-9e37-aec4310a50ae.gif
So the platform can't handle 3-D files. You know what, 3-D movies suck anyway.
b9afb7a1-2d44-4a01-80bb-a643c6a62a63.gif
I could actually argue this Gavin nonsense is a positive.
94dd50d7-fd31-4cf8-9576-629082ddec71.gif
Please don't.
d25c9da6-da7d-41c5-aef9-0ac5470a3893.gif
We just need to really dial it up for the big show tomorrow.
8be53910-6a3b-475f-a92f-e5625e5e80a9.gif
Dial what up? He just ruined us.
00205474-8a1e-4af2-842a-24af9b9f8390.gif
And until then, we need to do what any animal in nature does when it's cornered,
75ffcb8c-2769-496a-9158-93d6bf9781e4.gif
act erratically, and blindly lash out at everything around us.
c848acc2-9ace-484e-973a-3f73197336bb.gif
I'm gonna go get in Gavin's head.
24d054e1-8c32-4d7f-bb07-bb3c18c5980b.gif
Hey, guys, I just had a thought. Okay, so this is it, right?
36e2f5e2-3bfc-4d53-807e-8a50e09d9398.gif
A lot of successful start-ups launched with a different business model,
742adef1-fb71-49fc-9fcf-f7d8ef8378dd.gif
and when they ran into trouble, they pivoted to something new, right?
2b15afcc-c921-4ff9-8ce2-11d8cc3130ba.gif
Like lnstagram. That was a location-based check-in service when it started,
7cc52567-5669-4c72-93b3-693ebc1d7e73.gif
and then they pivoted.
dcabaefb-0f8e-47e5-bd4b-c77643744e11.gif
Or Chatroulette, okay, that was social media,
7a428ac6-9ed2-4262-b4a7-0227e04359ac.gif
and then they pivoted to become a playground for the sexually monstrous.
22d64c2f-d768-4818-94ec-3ccf69d8f023.gif
We just need a new idea, something that people want. Right? We can pivot, too.
026dade3-a51a-463a-b6ce-cabafaec835a.gif
- Dude, you are fucked up right now. - Yeah, you're pinning bad.
ed2615f9-060c-4d4a-a21a-2b8fac8d75de.gif
Well, I'll admit, I'm sleep-challenged.
7044a95d-556b-4e34-b4a7-876a6eeb3972.gif
I just spent four days trapped in a steel box out on an oil rig
e6ec0d04-0a0d-412e-94b8-e68a3109bd3e.gif
full of robot-forklifts.
5dce4086-a4f5-4e9d-9475-0c4e6e69359c.gif
So, that was hard, but I'm back.
056d37da-0a46-4e93-a251-d36c17d95967.gif
I am recovering and I am focused and we're gonna pivot. Don't lose faith, guys.
8d92503c-017f-4c26-b02c-452e68f1daf4.gif
All right, look at me. Look at me. Look at me.
1f869c43-4b63-45a9-aafd-96243a177119.gif
We've got a great name. We've got a great team.
e84537a1-9912-48de-869c-024b9522b165.gif
We've got a great logo, and we've got a great name.
c0526f49-5ebd-4c8b-9fcc-a977c7942bde.gif
Now we just need an idea.
ed3456ba-3b89-4035-a19d-a646a9030d37.gif
Let's pivot! Let's pivot!
ded76604-ad10-4730-921d-0c32e8ce82ab.gif
That might be the last time we see him alive.
2c8d28f2-dbc4-44ea-bde8-de5f9b24a290.gif
Ah, I think I'm just gonna take a walk and, you know, try and clear my head.
1db90eaa-b822-47d9-8d64-e839a423fcdd.gif
I'll see you guys back at the hotel room and we'll figure out what to do.
6fb2a4b1-26d6-427d-8210-3bb0e52bbb13.gif
We're going to be poor.
edd4653a-87d0-4a1a-9519-9553b4ff42b3.gif
Hi! I'd like to talk to you about a company called Pied Piper.
d133ec9e-919f-48ca-9257-e53cd7560460.gif
What does it do? Good question.
ba5d4a8d-7228-45e0-a1ba-980bfb2c0003.gif
Maybe you can help us find an answer.
12f5cbd8-bf5c-4cba-9ebd-2a12f043ce9f.gif
What if Pied Piper was an app that could attract rodents?
7048ae2c-ee92-4a91-aff9-9299a0426011.gif
You know, like the fairy tale?
45714cb4-3f7f-4861-890c-22b5878c2b8b.gif
For purposes of extermination or to feed your pet snake.
83cba7bd-07a0-4dd3-97b5-0799d2786227.gif
We're not here to tell you what to do with your rats,
5f281e3d-ba70-4102-ac7a-5b8b61bae2c1.gif
we're here to get you rats, stat.
4905ffac-aca8-4a70-9692-28d8ca8723f4.gif
Would you be very interested, somewhat interested or not interested?
95bf061b-bd2e-48ef-99b3-4364a1ce7d97.gif
Which one? Which one? Which one?
2305436b-de02-46ce-ae50-61423eabb6f1.gif
Look at them, all full of hope. Pricks.
79e14bca-1048-49bf-96e8-ec9e6dfdc82b.gif
Oh, look, Kwerpy's here recruiting.
f0fc948b-3f43-46f1-86b3-3060b3960bd8.gif
They just got 20 million in Series A at a $280 million dollar valuation.
b52fbb97-5cc3-4367-b034-4559b9e9514e.gif
- Wow. - That could have been us.
e72666ab-c3ac-4275-ad05-3a9a638a7fd0.gif
It's too bad we already have jobs, we could easily go work there.
851732b6-4f7f-4f20-a772-688d4314be68.gif
Yeah.
2314c830-ac31-4491-ac94-77fc52aeeca1.gif
It'd be a real dickhead move to bail on Richard now, right?
e22d6e13-19ea-467d-842d-7b333081400f.gif
I mean, before we officially go under.
7401dfa7-713b-4d75-8cc3-d50fe969d6c9.gif
- Yeah. Yeah. Total dickhead move. - Yeah. Yeah.
a003704f-6502-4b9a-84b4-478b1b089a44.gif
Yeah, even though it is just a matter of days.
7f86a03c-87cb-490b-9beb-8e065047f8ed.gif
- And we are so close. - I mean, he is standing right there.
ac9a9cff-7598-40d4-9809-4f1c135eee3b.gif
- But I'm not a dickhead. - No. Neither am I.
65ba1e53-778b-46fe-b1e2-0d48f8d16253.gif
Yep, just a couple of non-dickheads.
0c2d43df-aa70-47e6-9f13-cdc1f9e6e82d.gif
My dick and my head, totally separate.
21564f71-46e9-40f3-9795-22ce1a89bde6.gif
You've heard the phrase, "Time to pay the piper," right?
90aaf43b-5a5f-4039-89df-8d53c72d9d5a.gif
What if there was an app called Pied Piper that could tell you,
12048c95-ba2a-4607-acca-22edd034fa27.gif
to a statistical degree of certainty, whether you were going to heaven or hell?
878ebcef-7803-4f1f-91f2-da0faba4534d.gif
Very interested, somewhat interested, not interested?
11c57dd8-63bd-4101-983f-acf74dd5c3cc.gif
Which one? Which one? Which one?
cc329b77-8046-4242-961b-7859a42dc151.gif
So you made some really over-the-top promises about Nucleus.
47f501ac-7455-4736-a244-21bfb6d18d4c.gif
- Can you deliver? - Absolutely.
43769767-4f2f-4de6-abaa-b87297eb91ef.gif
For me, Kara, goodness, greatness, these are not simply catchphrases,
e2d3f677-49e2-411b-bb13-1325a1a2f583.gif
but, in fact, really the intention of Hooli from the beginning.
d99fb1b8-2084-4dfd-a751-fb41e8eb2568.gif
Gavin, you do not need to dignify any of this with a response!
3096bbb6-9450-4313-82d2-fecd9aeddd4d.gif
I can speak for myself. Erlich Bachman, Pied Piper.
ab3aab58-6a7a-47d7-8b5f-c2edc3a23631.gif
Was I brutally assaulted? Yes.
905a78a2-47cb-49a2-a254-cbf8cec9b51d.gif
Did Gavin Belson here have anything to do with it? Unclear.
a5485afd-3692-4547-b6b9-bf71fc8a0af4.gif
All I know is that the rumor that TechCrunch is all abuzz about is unproven.
065629d6-0c8b-42b8-bea9-411b1dd8139c.gif
- Wait, what rumor? - Thank you.
74ad6dda-9e1f-4172-b390-2d89f1a14baf.gif
Why would Gavin have anything to do with this?
bd7c8263-b90e-4a30-8676-d0bfd19ae487.gif
Unless he had some reason to be frightened by Pied Piper and its superior technology?
c30f6bfb-7fdf-4037-9eff-a9a1f47bc84f.gif
This and all other Gavin Belson rumors are unsubstantiated.
1d86ba32-9565-4b1d-a9d1-20a0102bebdd.gif
Okay, the alcoholism, the sexual impropriety at work,
1a737d26-1bc8-4f43-b62e-5c0fd051d1ed.gif
the impending crash of Hooli's stock...
6e939c17-cb0a-4767-a08f-76b5b0b7e3b5.gif
This is the most ridiculous...
d73b8975-48e6-48f9-8657-bf70115ebb46.gif
Exactly. So why repeat the lascivious details,
a787a0e3-ca7c-4dff-b60d-6bab82596a9a.gif
with which all of us are undoubtedly already familiar?
8cc31c17-2d30-422a-a318-015547829761.gif
Guilty or not, Gavin, I stand with you.
6d065bb5-f4c6-4fd9-ad4f-f6f412c1da1a.gif
Care to comment?
a123292c-9fee-4c3a-93db-03d23a7d0ec7.gif
Let's keep moving, shall we?
379a207c-0c5a-4e1f-ae35-409d188d0f83.gif
Yes, let's all keep moving. Let's move on from this.
cc62f2cd-74ec-4b0a-aaeb-a2bccd651e5e.gif
I forgive you, Gavin. No matter how brutally I was assaulted.
22d9c31e-2cbe-4098-a476-213de9ddab11.gif
Wow, Pied Piper sounds like a great place to work.
3f0b6db0-45de-4c39-8cb6-66538bfaeacf.gif
Oh, yeah, it is.
5cf20bcd-e3ff-4457-a44f-c3470c25fc72.gif
Pied Piper is the best, right?
54035db9-4903-4de6-a09b-8b4c86942bb1.gif
Oh, my God, every day feels like I've died and gone to hell.
f46585e0-d582-4dd5-8bf1-308a1acaeca8.gif
I'm sorry.
5028fe26-8871-4342-b703-d477517c9e1a.gif
- He's a Satanist, so it's good. - Mmm-hmm.
7cc1a633-7dc3-4cf0-8d14-c9486d0044c7.gif
- Oh, fun. - The point is, we love our company,
7968dd91-c903-4bbf-9917-65f479826656.gif
and I don't have a problem saying that out loud.

- You... - Love it
da8a41f2-d1b0-4a33-9c55-c62a15c730aa.gif
We both say it out loud and I think that fact,
e81cb38a-4b84-49dc-ae82-4c43637d3fe8.gif
proves that we're not dickheads.
d1937348-8daa-4758-a061-0abaef70223c.gif
So what we wanted to ask you was...
d646f3d9-7fa0-4c7d-93e7-0e6688c2509a.gif
Guys?
c1fdb54b-9786-4940-9c89-99defc882626.gif
Totally between us, our beta crapped out.
cb9aa805-f47b-4ed9-ab20-eca02a44ddf6.gif
The VCs did a full claw back and our Series A is DOA.
29a3268a-b8a7-4686-b51b-3b31b00a7d61.gif
We're going down. We have enough runway for maybe two, three weeks max.
ce96d41a-457a-43b5-b19b-ce4df2c8fe42.gif
So...
7d913f3a-e772-4e3f-8fb1-176ef2734522.gif
Do you guys think you could hire me?
9d89283d-a5c9-461c-b4ea-7e595c83dc73.gif
How much would it be worth to you if I told you I had a GPS app called Pied Piper,
b8d9ea5a-5457-4460-bc62-a64c4ad600d6.gif
tracking the location of your child?
43eaa922-f0cc-46ff-8565-915d6bc7c0e4.gif
I can follow your child anywhere,
f65d4deb-338f-4b4b-b455-4baf46fb1476.gif
and there is nothing you can do to stop me.
a07c9f06-71de-40f5-96da-989cb2afa70d.gif
Most missing children are never found.
938fed54-eaf9-4a16-ac09-6d87b6eedde4.gif
Interested, very interested, or very interested?
2cc62a6c-b82a-492b-b42e-26b97f6a5760.gif
Richard. Hi...
f8510f13-1a54-4ba5-9104-9ab6a873bcdd.gif
- Hey... Uh, suitcase. Yeah. - Yeah.
6781097a-6006-41e8-977e-6b8b4bd2495e.gif
So you're, uh...
aff80204-3342-43b4-a6cc-2dd891987227.gif
Peter called.
64754010-4b3f-4bb8-a5f2-fb49bd893f86.gif
- He saw Erlich's presentation, such as it was. - Ah.
de89bca4-3425-4b00-9301-cf4e1f41fc19.gif
And Gavin's.
1d08db97-c9de-4b2d-9d46-9a69a8a3e9d9.gif
So he wants me to go back to Palo Alto.
095e9e5e-67bb-4bbe-b76a-f65dc253b2f0.gif
There's just a few other things that he wants me working on.
61e3d439-767f-4696-a0aa-0ac4ae2a7037.gif
Now that we're, you know, dead in the water.
a8c8ae1a-4455-4502-a768-a2c8db62f8df.gif
Listen, I'm sorry you walked away from the money like you did.
4398655e-90d8-4f54-847e-d7d85466b053.gif
But I swear I only wanted Peter to seed you
a1e83162-ef53-4fa7-82a0-f9b618220abd.gif
because I thought that you had a really great company.
1d4a6849-8e34-41a7-8ea2-7a9e507f50a9.gif
- Mmm. - It just didn't work out for you this time.
1bd2877e-85e4-48dc-a686-0bf2d23e3500.gif
Uh... Can I be honest with you?
5ec7a047-5446-4198-a48a-907860e2d602.gif
I haven't had more than two straight hours of sleep in months.
5ccc6761-dbc0-40a6-b0b0-675732bf6f69.gif
I've had a cold for, like, a year.
f10f6a05-9574-419b-9425-84b6bd78ec4b.gif
My stomach cramps up so much I feel like I'm menstruating.
4cb4a5c3-decd-47f2-bd2b-399ce907efb9.gif
Maybe this is for the better.
b0927bba-6460-49e8-a695-5e49a22841f0.gif
Look, I gotta go. Um...
fae11301-d4ec-4fca-b700-8a3f426479fe.gif
I'm really sorry that we're not gonna be working together anymore.
f8481f3d-d108-4e38-9b4f-0944cc67bf80.gif
Yeah, me too.
4bed9d1b-a8d1-4976-ba01-b91e903fb65c.gif
I guess... I guess we won't see each other again.
29835881-7e1f-49ba-95de-b1d74eb522eb.gif
Well, I mean, now that the rules about socializing with coworkers
2ff5b166-c4ac-4bce-be66-1ecedca94d3f.gif
aren't in effect anymore, let me know if you want to grab a drink sometime.
dd84b2ef-5f9c-434c-924a-c12c5d84febc.gif
What, like a "drink"? A "drink-drink"?
2ea2a414-337f-4843-9973-9fb5a0c82c6f.gif
You go on dates with failures?
66239afa-7fac-4ea8-96fb-ef424470e060.gif
- Constantly. - Okay.
0dc92569-ad28-4f39-99ea-af4a04fad5ae.gif
Uh...
8964cf93-6d59-4348-b3b1-8f2af0878b58.gif
- Bye. Okay. - Bye.
d8e274ed-6fc3-4393-b033-5ce457d51636.gif
You have any weapons or drugs on your person at this time?
bf864f23-b3db-4a1a-8d8e-fa7b0c166955.gif
- Why, yes. Yes, I do. - Huh.
ff08a9a3-c103-4614-b53d-4d939cd6dfde.gif
Let's go.
d18e35ae-0f28-474b-9bc6-dba83da12c94.gif
Adderall. This is a highly controlled substance. Are these yours?
9d3014d5-c229-425d-9b47-3e45d028f248.gif
No! Those belong to an underage kid that I brought to my house.
adb1bd25-3973-485c-8ef5-476485426a8b.gif
Yeah, sir, I'm going to have to ask you to come with me.
d4746db5-6c91-4ea0-a012-87f0b6b1637d.gif
That's a kind invitation, but I have too much to do. I'm pivoting!
38efe009-4a6b-4f05-b081-93c28380c365.gif
- Let's go now! - No. I'm pivoting! I'm pivoting!
16d41261-6b01-49cd-a171-f7d33413c87a.gif
I'm pivoting!
dfc347f2-8168-4915-b231-938726da3fd5.gif
I mean, what do we even present tomorrow?
7f89583a-60dc-4050-bf81-1ed7c862e26b.gif
Honestly, anyone?
cacadf33-8e3b-44fa-bd78-0343fd7a4067.gif
Why do we have to present at all?
cca84cd0-9849-4af7-9124-90f869bc5c3e.gif
What's that supposed to mean?
06dd2c7b-9921-4b38-8768-e85c11852b34.gif
If we are going to fail and be humiliated,
eee7b6b2-06ab-4ae2-bf62-3736b9bb1fde.gif
why do it on stage in front of 1,000 people and a live-streamed audience?
96e1f209-273b-43af-afc6-f29c2a316042.gif
Are you saying we shouldn't even show up?
ed764397-0a45-43dd-8537-34cbd8df16d1.gif
No offense, but it's basically going to be a public execution.
6a73b919-dd22-4260-bf43-30d482ef4ce9.gif
Yes, and public executions are very popular.
d8666ccf-4f8d-4503-8485-5905eb0c3b2e.gif
It's show business. We are not quitting, Richard.
566deb4e-af22-429f-b712-3eefcc9640a2.gif
Look, Erlich, I want to present, I do, it's just...
8eeebd47-5844-49a4-8ae4-73b406be1270.gif
I don't know.
3f396d03-1844-4e0f-9e30-facc9cc74d0c.gif
Jesus, are you okay?
ce3e588e-edda-4d20-b9b8-30b8f6ac1017.gif
What? Yeah, I... Okay.
25b083b3-9912-4bfd-aaed-f6965666ccba.gif
Yeah, all good. They let me go.
b4d02dac-53c3-45a3-87ab-56f061005687.gif
- Who let you go? - When was the last time you slept, Jared?
ecd01a88-1af6-4f4c-8ea5-66188cf413f2.gif
Yeah, absolutely, David.
4e56219a-ee1b-43ed-9a1e-591bc3c6a850.gif
What are we talking about, gents?
54f3a6a9-eed1-4c63-ba81-48a495d4402d.gif
We're talking about how I didn't get to present in the prelims,
b87ad149-8859-4cc6-a182-a7e9e79366cb.gif
because I was too busy getting my face pummeled
61cd63a3-f2f0-4443-a3a3-f3f3ba5e11b1.gif
so that our team could move forward.
e8ca5641-4cdf-4747-8efb-401299514e07.gif
That's why we're presenting tomorrow.
ebaf1196-a8d2-42e8-94a2-bcb749c877c5.gif
And you know what? We're going to win.
59921888-edf2-44ea-990c-8e175b56dfed.gif
Yeah, we're gonna win even if I have to go into the auditorium and personally jerk off
dd7c03e5-444b-4df3-bf6e-d0087fd3f249.gif
every guy in the audience.
74e50a9a-c7d5-417f-8fa8-e597dd304fa4.gif
That's a lot of jerking.
868807fd-3160-4346-969d-fec3646e85d0.gif
And we only have 10 minutes to present. So...
3cf1187b-186e-433b-acb7-04d3aaac6a16.gif
So, we're fucked, aren't we?
3e8c4fd0-c4e0-404f-8cc9-5b555a74a29e.gif
Yeah, even if he's jerking two at a time, there are, what, 800 guys in that room?
0c7bd937-750f-428d-8284-8dd05263305d.gif
So that's 400 times whatever the mean jerk-time is.
0fc7fab0-cac4-4c65-8051-4bbc93d3866e.gif
- The what? - Mean jerk-time.
19733e59-3baa-472e-9582-05404a9948ac.gif
I mean, it doesn't matter, but, hypothetically,
a26cfef1-dc45-47ee-a1de-803ef7dda4c9.gif
time is equal to 400 total jerks at a two-dick rate.
44ba5a02-d0e9-4460-a57d-306e5dca1cae.gif
Unless Erlich jerks off four guys at a time, and then we can cut that in half.
f50b672c-ab86-4903-84a9-fe3ebbedc7de.gif
How would he do four guys...
cef8d91f-2083-489f-aed3-0301b5907569.gif
He's got two hands, so that's two dicks at a time, right?
c215b289-718c-4cc9-85d0-8ef322fc15ee.gif
Look, you have two guys on either side with their dicks, tip to tip,
25d81100-d040-4cc1-ab48-3e535fc42282.gif
so you're going full-length. Four, see?
36c3da91-e3d7-4df0-bc14-0c169983c8ed.gif
Oh...
63334b36-6448-4144-b5e6-2da31557b81a.gif
From the middle out. That does make sense.
c7aad690-608c-48ee-a17c-b11655d79b40.gif
Like two Shake Weights?
0f9d5cb5-3d4d-4cc8-ad2f-d751d49253cb.gif
Yeah, so what we're trying to do, hypothetically,
3b106383-5e2b-4f4b-a135-4de983824065.gif
is minimize time, which is 800 dudes,
0c390011-3bb2-45de-9948-9d16b2423a82.gif
multiplied by mean-jerk time, divided by four dicks at a time.
90cc36bd-dcc7-4a37-99d5-5e7235340600.gif
Of course, Erlich would have to pre-sort guys by height, so that their dicks lined up.
601173ab-7732-4fd5-bef3-66d5f0edeed8.gif
Not by height, technically.
df7331c1-8190-439d-89d8-909ea8923caf.gif
The measurement that we're looking for, really, is dick-to-floor.
20fbe2ee-43e5-4145-95ea-269fd128b235.gif
- Call that D2F. - Huh.
05a502cc-5e12-43f3-986e-4aa103ebfb4e.gif
Oh, my God.
ce628d53-7907-4f20-8206-61330874901f.gif
You know, if a guy's dick was long enough,
f39fc6d1-e2c6-4ff1-8ccb-f3b1f1632a88.gif
it would be able to reach up or down to another guy with a different D2F.
591d2523-69fb-4795-9150-cf2eafa3116f.gif
The longer the dick, the greater the D2F bridge,
600b6034-56ba-4212-b3a1-26d5e289f7bb.gif
but I would still be able to jerk it off in one smooth motion.
2bb40808-4126-4f2c-8399-65dde9b3a1c1.gif
I would just have to jerk it on an angle.
e3c94e49-9d04-4f45-b576-b2fa9791c08c.gif
So D2F sub-1 needs to equal D2F sub-2,
166f3a44-5a77-412d-9a03-fdd542151523.gif
and D2F sub-3 needs to equal D2F sub-4,
b47bcd68-07f1-4abe-9819-0dc3ee99cf4f.gif
where length, L, creates a complementary shaft angle.
7bc8229e-6bbc-4308-83e9-0cef2bc31b97.gif
Call that theta D.
631965cc-71d2-453a-a7c6-5ad27b77ecb3.gif
- Now, the orgasm threshold... - Holy shit. Oh, my God.
45047cd9-e643-4784-bdbd-107cbde98431.gif
I'm such an idiot. Middle out!
aa6278a9-01dc-4337-9c1a-69782de7302c.gif
Middle out! Middle out! Oh, my God.
6a137034-12bc-4667-ae0b-f568e37ab17b.gif
HOW could I...
1c54a0cc-cc88-4498-bdd3-fcef7942fb3b.gif
Guys, does girth-similarity affect Erlich's ability
3d94e8d0-fa16-4b33-9b49-4ed4b12a330b.gif
to jerk different dicks simultaneously?
25dbf4b2-c9e9-4e4a-8ba7-35a60b806773.gif
Shit. Yeah, I think it would.
1def3823-8301-448f-bd4c-623fe126271e.gif
Of course, it does. Time to orgasm, or T20,
21bd5e98-d60d-4c51-a338-18e81e442f77.gif
has to be the same for each matching pair of dicks,
ef104a0e-4067-4414-8dad-ceb7c1e30cd5.gif
otherwise I'm wasting a lot of great strokes on a guy that's already busted.
e113eae8-74c0-4f8f-bacb-0f3c34de7825.gif
Unless you can hotswap dicks in and out. So on a downstroke, you get a new one in.
c6d39dae-4a8c-490e-863d-a67a6672e77b.gif
So when you stroke up you're not wasting any energy.
b336eba7-d00c-4397-ab47-0ae2acbd1385.gif
Even so. I think this is the most reliable metric for stamina.
d93383d7-9511-41c8-8b7d-a25f402b1713.gif
Guys? Richard's been locked in here for almost two hours. Do we think he's okay?
e6735429-26c0-4f38-823a-48e3f0c2fab5.gif
Hmm, you don't think he'd...
db9e56c2-7540-423f-bd8d-a39ef401fcda.gif
He did seem pretty bummed out.
1bf96ade-a557-45f1-926a-7fd8d1206736.gif
All right, guys, let's go.
ff951797-5aa0-4540-b848-bef0959d103d.gif
- The finals are starting. - Up!
79c00362-d4af-4fac-9561-57252d809feb.gif
Gilfoyle!
7320a6ff-92ec-4623-b02d-e65be2d4f619.gif
Jesus!
075d6878-5940-49a7-af0c-10cfa90ccc9e.gif
What happened to the door?
20342b7d-4928-44b9-afbf-7bdf42ba54f9.gif
Don't worry about it, Richard. Ls the platform up and running?
d1e336e6-3c67-4393-9b4c-d708b6341289.gif
I made a few changes, but yeah...
191e95a3-08b1-47e1-b35b-98ee44bb6b14.gif
Okay, tell me on the walk. All right, you dildos, let's go!
1e8b8b8e-a28f-414b-b72c-c6d5c55089f4.gif
All right, talk to me, Richard. What were you working on last night?
ac6f8c2c-e2f9-4af3-a23f-88dafdb1f39a.gif
Well, uh, I might've made a breakthrough.
cda9e905-f6e9-44e7-b5da-f62f43a0fc1a.gif
Really, so everything is working?
4365cb85-966a-4890-85e2-bc0c6427de82.gif
Uh, technically, no.
57d521bd-73ed-4fca-916f-970f6ce966fc.gif
Let's face it, ladies, is there anything less sexy
0d5ba387-6662-4501-bce1-b66331a0326f.gif
than when a user's visualization UX is completely sub-optimal?
47740ec8-4685-49b6-9705-fec12a1bf904.gif
I mean, it's the worst, right?
8a7c27bc-3de4-4487-b9bf-3529979c0963.gif
So we've gone through all the research and all the steps.
97cdb74a-6325-4777-8a10-1c7226bbccb7.gif
We have a solution for these problems and Zenella is ready to bring it to the marketplace.
bcab0358-b481-4ea5-b1b4-f72ffad13e47.gif
Yeah, I get it, Richard. You changed a lot.
9f8d83dc-370c-4b0f-b434-90253855de6a.gif
Now, just give me the basics and I can roll with it.
aaf3e69a-1285-4547-b310-20e6cfe504e8.gif
I need to know what I'm presenting here.
6db3314c-5cee-4d48-ba6f-40bcdbf37378.gif
I don't think I have time to explain it all.
f284c1b5-4ddb-47f8-9a26-acc16812ff0a.gif
What the hell does that mean?
462fbde3-55da-4483-85ea-ea8fbbb3eec5.gif
Richard? Is this the right build? I can't find the mobile suite here.
f0867a36-cbd5-4c52-b57b-58b4f071015f.gif
Uh, it is nowhere. I deleted it.
05a2811b-0391-4872-88d6-427ea5fc8656.gif
- What? - Here they are.
05408c63-5108-4a9b-ac38-1fa7c436d296.gif
- Pied Piper's here. - Sorry, we're late.
fbffce52-3b64-4300-8f46-ec5d48cf06a8.gif
Richard, talk to me.
e108ec61-0ace-4bed-9873-48f350f2beb8.gif
I can't front a band without knowing what we're playing?
895b2a9e-e1db-4ff4-a1a4-13c50d175e5d.gif
Uh, I think I'm just going to do the presentation myself.
cf1fcccf-0b48-4f8e-afc3-d8060bfc62e7.gif
Wait, what? No, no, no, Richard, Richard, Richard, Richard.
7854838e-b6bb-490c-a549-39e36ce7c07e.gif
Respectfully... Respectfully, you're terrible.
870ab107-a668-445d-bae8-68846560e234.gif
You have a world-class showman standing right in front of you
20f7658d-4b36-4ef7-aab8-c9ddb8a07d8b.gif
and you're going to pass on that?
739bea1d-8c9f-4be7-a8ce-e84710415080.gif
Release me, Richard. Release the Kraken!
1a01e547-5052-405b-a538-e0f844ba3ecb.gif
- Pied Piper. You're on. - This is it!
2fbb053f-3c2d-4d83-9936-f78e0e814b66.gif
I don't know what you did, Richard, but I hope it works.
a8a470c5-6d83-422c-8889-f5cd0d0fbea5.gif
Me, 1100.
dfb7d1fd-161d-413b-8556-7751c1fe17b9.gif
All right, let's welcome our final team to the finals
f94d90d4-f4fc-4d94-858d-cfdf475e3a5f.gif
of this year's TechCrunch Disrupt Startup Battlefield.
69a05f44-3292-48ed-b910-e03247b010a7.gif
- Presenting for Pied Piper is Erlich Bachman.
d8e23c52-078a-4468-9f31-5d41fc11439a.gif
Uh, actually there has been a change of plans.
897e88aa-e705-4e05-89df-bcfd68730a53.gif
Presenting for Pied Piper will be Richard Hendricks.
047a3a8d-2ef6-4db3-a270-f25f33bdbf98.gif
Richard?
faad7f42-0b5c-4154-ad9e-7559c746acba.gif
Ah, sorry. Got a little light-headed there for a second.
0501149d-af77-4caa-9295-ed9b28314f72.gif
I set 'em up for you, now knock 'em down.
aace73d3-baa4-4e6b-904d-acb271b912ea.gif
I don't understand. I thought he made the platform better.
a6a96a85-a4a2-4269-89e9-d59a5f2a67bb.gif
- He just deleted everything. - Maybe he moved it to the cloud?
3b769b85-10d8-4cba-ba02-67cd327b25c0.gif
No. All The Carver's work is gone.
9377faba-dafc-4496-b5a6-4215069b3e72.gif
Pied Piper is a cloud-based compression. Without the cloud, nothing's left.
8b966f86-daf8-45d8-a21e-b120b93708f5.gif
Uh, gentlemen, this is likely the last 10 minutes
6b36907d-4c22-481c-8570-9a1edd481e76.gif
of Pied Piper, so let's enjoy it.
ab4520eb-3a6e-4a1f-b000-105dfeae21c6.gif
- Has he lost his mind? - He's lost his fucking mind.
ccd679f9-d23e-46cf-b6a9-3474a794eb43.gif
Hello... Hello. Hello.
fcee3383-71de-4781-8fe9-978abac0c12b.gif
Um, I am... My name is Richard Hendricks,
7258c294-1ade-400c-a7e6-ae6dbb75a0bd.gif
and I am, along with, uh, this guy, him, him,
63dfa1fb-985c-405a-a1c3-c6703c79836b.gif
and another guy that has disappeared, uh...
54ce7351-c364-4e6b-a13d-73d4202fd2c6.gif
Um...
5e805191-9027-4f11-ba04-03b1c7dbd18d.gif
We are Pied Piper. A compression company.
438dafe2-25f9-4dac-9873-d72aaa7f8156.gif
Well, you know, in your pamphlets
d80edc04-25ef-406a-b505-e0279dcb3060.gif
it says that we are a cloud-based
ab1711c7-651d-41a0-9902-51f84b51bd82.gif
multi-platform solution for user-focused compression.
27f7077d-ef36-4498-9109-57694166707b.gif
Uh, and we were. Until yesterday.
411780fb-4449-407a-a641-1676946dd7b7.gif
But now we are not.
314d0df7-6a8d-4f89-a274-48c8f6b4af7d.gif
Uh, because you see, Hooli
47a4a38d-ed2c-46b3-90ae-2c41a54c7c0f.gif
did everything that we were trying to do, uh, better, way better.
55099f5d-d24a-40c6-8090-163b8f56c306.gif
Um...
90e1be5d-12b9-4b4e-ba08-9588362a06fa.gif
Nucleus is built on the same engine as ours, like exactly the same,
2051dbf4-748f-4ece-9e03-614234b8939c.gif
and their Weissman score was 2.89, same as ours.
8b786f42-d64e-441c-98d1-ec89fa8e83b5.gif
But the thing is, they built a ton of really great stuff up on top of that.
96e08c9f-f263-4243-a321-47003fffc855.gif
And we can't compete, so now we have to be something else.
a7a021bf-043b-4f48-8453-83aae474a511.gif
Um, well-played, Hooli.
50dd42eb-0550-46c7-a742-f087f6e7d79a.gif
Uh, okay, so anyway, we all know that the most obvious way
2d30700c-1f2f-4436-8569-b5c7bfbe80f1.gif
to compress files is with Shannon coding, right? Top down.
7d88341f-5b14-4678-a373-602f13e7000d.gif
Richard, they can't see that, it's too small.
7e0f2c8d-84d3-4400-ae8e-2aafbdd10bb0.gif
- Okay. - Literally, hundreds of people here.
8a05d0e1-4f80-40c0-9f0d-29a193df4a27.gif
Oh, no, but I need...
7168f171-3720-4e9b-be5f-5dc898dfa9af.gif
Shit, okay.
fa758147-5cfd-4f56-a851-f895f798f7f0.gif
Um...
536a4962-e015-44c7-b8d4-84860264b758.gif
Right, oh.
c06e7fbb-ec4c-4e0f-b478-25899fb2736f.gif
Uh, so Shannon coding and then David Huffman came along,
c93f4d9f-5725-4e05-98f2-532da856434e.gif
and he pioneered bottom-up, and Lempel-Ziv with left-to-right, obviously.
51689aa0-33ce-433c-9c24-79ee13a86353.gif
And for decades, we used these codes to compress,
c919f725-633b-407d-90f8-784836fa1d1a.gif
you know, JPEGs, MPEGs, MP3s, Zips, all that stuff.
fb45e616-5a3b-470b-866e-ac53fe1c1328.gif
Uh, but we all know that, so there's no point in talking about it.
344d28b7-72ab-40ab-9031-7a90bd22f3f3.gif
But, uh, what happened was,
4dc4fb5d-5dbb-4862-9cde-0c6b9c955d59.gif
last night, um, I was watching my friends here have this argument
e5073b10-9136-4001-8d1c-c8df7656165d.gif
about, you know, uh, manipulating d... Uh, data.
f3f4e076-c3c8-477d-85eb-bb1c44f3d628.gif
And, you know, how many datas could one guy manipulate at once and...
ca43e471-d1fa-489a-9cf7-a0e5b0e12124.gif
And I was just... I was thinking.
d92e230f-282a-4f0d-a5dd-48a15eed7592.gif
Uh, maybe it could be another way, you know?
b3e8481c-265e-4d10-b11f-eb0813e8f783.gif
Uh, something that I would call, "middle-out."
191220fd-dc50-4986-8a6d-c2f893b540af.gif
It's up-and-down, back-and-forth all at the same time going on at once.
fda8ffac-bdf8-4e89-b7ae-7327fc56b4fe.gif
Okay, well, anyway, I deleted all our modules last night,
a27b8666-586d-408b-b7dc-b7092bd65344.gif
and I completely rebuilt our engine, from scratch last night.
0f1f98f3-9e29-49e1-b544-17d6706bd1b4.gif
Um, now, this morning I really only had enough time to do one test,
b053bc08-0b6c-430a-b913-bcbaa76d9ab0.gif
and when I did, we hit a Weissman score of 3.8.
4e7849b3-6c83-47d9-b5ab-84ff78f4c98f.gif
Now, I know the theoretical limit was 2.9,
62661648-8655-4045-8299-ab6671888201.gif
- but as you can see here... - I'm sorry. You scored a 3.8?
200ae1ca-3303-4c39-9cf8-965383687b9e.gif
Uh, yes, sir.
62eef19f-fc11-4355-a6b2-44aebb65b7e5.gif
And this is a universal lossless compression engine?
e1430fc5-e5fd-46cb-a44b-bac5a3eda119.gif
- Text? Audio? Video? - Yes, that is correct.
6deaea05-ea66-43c6-b29d-351ae7c78aed.gif
Well, I'm sorry to interrupt your eloquent presentation, Richard.
f74900a9-9b4f-4250-8f74-cd5f61afddc4.gif
But, rather than say anything more, why don't we just give you a file
ee8b8e2a-c4b8-4fec-96c2-189851385bda.gif
and we'll see whether this thing can do what you say it does.
e3d0a7f0-73ff-4ea0-99bb-fd190d65184c.gif
Because if it can't, then we're done here, right?
0ce3bd23-7d27-4809-973d-242f72f3e1e4.gif
Yeah. Yeah, that's fair.
5964c181-4109-4250-9d3d-9ff21051136e.gif
So we can give you any kind of file and you can compress it,
a8aa2025-eed1-4f15-87fe-8153ecd57d04.gif
without degradation, at this standard? Three-eight?
340c66a7-de77-43f4-a283-6961f0122156.gif
Yes... Yep.
65cadfb7-09db-487b-bc1a-b90ce545ea7f.gif
All right, give us a minute, please.
7b409936-bae7-4c5b-a580-afd8cf19aa59.gif
- What do we got? - Does anyone have anything?
e2f1acc0-d7a8-43eb-a2bf-ee1a479c9ec7.gif
- Do you have something? - I've got a file for him.
08a9018b-788c-466c-9c53-f342420e1369.gif
Okay. Andy Stafford here, has a file for you.
01180159-05ff-4497-b8cc-4a6de3e3a18e.gif
- Okay. - It's 132 gigabytes uncompressed,
25654146-0a04-47f2-865f-91899c5f758c.gif
and it's a 3-D video file.
b5dc4948-11cc-492e-a252-56d66636711c.gif
Okay-
555fef22-5c2f-4aa1-9212-c065611e70bb.gif
Shit...
027e18c0-8945-41ef-8970-115d4617cc29.gif
- A fucking 3-D file? - Yes.
ecb41666-cc3b-43fb-b26f-4946aea92a7e.gif
- Are you fucking kidding me? - God damn it.
6245abcc-ee8b-4d3a-ad26-b4caf6b64aa4.gif
- Can we handle this? - I guess we'll find out.
e43baecb-89b6-44bd-bf9c-aa88e2e67f85.gif
Damn it, I hope this works.
f2a59ef5-3ed1-4c38-9013-73cf060a2655.gif
Shit, it's hung.
5c941cbb-d7c0-4e89-a937-86f548a87998.gif
Oh, no.
ce4e5221-9a0a-4e40-a64e-2317a36e9ad9.gif
Is it stuck?
9c3602b6-4103-4675-9a8c-bac8a51fcb24.gif
There is a time limit, you have two minutes remaining.
37264d66-c98e-4e3b-b2ab-e689c6703cee.gif
Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
2c3a8c66-348d-4bf5-84f9-86648e23b2aa.gif
It looks like it's done.
add0549b-ebc3-4005-83b2-b1f0c9b205ac.gif
Wait, 24 gigs? What happened?
23db5c1b-4efb-4761-a723-c88ff8f98497.gif
Oh, shit, there's no way.
5134e2dd-2c70-44dc-8082-16cda7f722d8.gif
It didn't compress the whole thing. It should be twice that size.
9de7ccec-ab5a-4a42-8832-4f73290788f1.gif
I mean, 24 gigs, that's less than a fourth the file size.
a3f1fff3-1e98-4e65-9504-e6eb58bda3b8.gif
That seems dubious, Richard.
43eec47c-58cd-4ba6-950f-4fe1004a1d36.gif
Why don't we run a Weissman test for verification, see where we went wrong.
b612284a-1a9d-4b34-b195-e8907a94d571.gif
Okay, I mean it shouldn't take too long, it only compressed half the fucking file.
4e886f9a-f318-43be-b459-4e47565d1dcf.gif
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have rewritten all this code.
1805b7f5-c8a1-4811-8d05-c9fa2b18cd4d.gif
I mean, what we had before worked.
0554130a-e64d-4453-ae30-e43396d7f48b.gif
I'm sorry, guys. Gavin won. We lost.
7d189f69-dc1e-4faa-8cee-fd895855d050.gif
At least it didn't happen in a public and brutally embarrassing way.
f014a8ab-61ac-4ace-ac71-6656b2985c35.gif
- Thanks, Gilfoyle. - Yeah.
5d13677c-9da0-444a-abe6-d6f597b98363.gif
Wait a second. What's happening?
0e78e3ae-3f14-475a-b0c6-10b61aa87fc9.gif
There's no errors, look!
d274169b-8f3d-4f70-9e34-3d8776da101b.gif
- 5.2? How, how... - Wait, what?
6716225f-7d70-4559-a4da-5793ec2dde31.gif
- Wait, it compressed the whole file? - Whoa!
31e7ea6f-bd5d-4eeb-b111-14bb89986ae3.gif
That's the whole file.
bad7ab16-9919-4b7b-bbb2-b92b67063789.gif
It's just half the size I thought it would be.
f4c66d97-2a08-40db-be59-e6b0eba6dc10.gif
Ladies and gentlemen, obviously we're going to keep looking at this to verify,
ae19430e-02ec-4bd1-92b6-ed5f28d7bb02.gif
but with a confirmed score of 5.2,
424db7c5-fda0-4d6c-a225-1eed5e4fb7a3.gif
Pied Piper appears to have just doubled the best Weissman score ever measured.
a0a6e874-6a1b-41c6-b580-07422cb57462.gif
- Doubled it!
404e9b18-14dd-48e9-991f-ade37bbdba02.gif
Pied Piper, ladies and gentlemen!
256b0d1b-149b-46ef-8d74-13948cd8d02f.gif
Let's hear it for them!
9ffb4e03-2381-437d-95fe-0381082d2cc5.gif
Holy shit!
81d47289-f911-45a1-bed7-3b2caece86ac.gif
Hey, I'm at TechCrunch.
c378dd58-d61f-43e5-b1b0-8da8873bd5e9.gif
This kid, Hendricks, and Pied Piper just ran a two-minute mile.
d8da7940-9393-4f56-aebc-6a43b86998b0.gif
We should get on this, now.
f0dd922e-90c6-4856-aca4-8912e93f4b7d.gif
Suck it, Gavin Belson!
7d23c5b5-881e-4a13-ab1e-5904a80a6649.gif
Hendricks, you beautiful bastard!
642358c8-367d-4d32-b63c-90c226b13ec7.gif
I told you we'd do it! Come on!
79bab13c-7e4b-495f-8099-b97479e1daac.gif
We're not going to be poor!
31b89d6f-566d-45f5-b617-4d5fdb43f774.gif
What happened? What happened? What happened? What happened?
ad55a512-7e1e-4d5d-8802-83b6d88dcd0c.gif
Ah, we just won the cup!
11d1862c-484c-4f03-b6cf-83180657d5a7.gif
Whoo!
93e00323-13df-4366-a550-7b75c4f8ad5f.gif
And I don't think it comes as any shock that the winner of this year's Disrupt Cup
6abdfe6e-2eb9-4fbd-ab6f-65d2ce2f1975.gif
and $50,000, like they're going to need it, is Pied Piper.
ae12827c-0e19-463a-a5c8-21b15cb23b3f.gif
So Richard wrote the code?
5a696d88-9c6d-4086-a7ea-a011c031ed1a.gif
Richard wrote the code, yes, but the inspiration was clear.
05725cbd-aae7-4ec5-b2f5-b4815d9f3351.gif
- Let me ask you something. - Mmm-hmm.
e2fea295-0932-4f0a-b771-d57b728fde56.gif
How fast do you think you could jack off every guy in this room?
c61c4c05-7a2c-4edf-89cb-7660a446dcdf.gif
'Cause I know how long it would take me.
0832d650-3082-4026-8857-e4d5fef69b34.gif
And I can prove it.
c6a8d68c-4965-458c-bcca-39a5e0e438f2.gif
- Nice. - Thank you so much.
639fd8ab-03ea-49e3-a81d-10e43700e9fa.gif
I don't fully understand it but I would definitely like to invest.
060a7a94-c667-49ae-a9df-ce8ecf914863.gif
- Oh, great. - Really impressed.
04f1b2e8-812a-4e94-b0c4-2f4b9b579a7e.gif
I really want to get you in front of my partners.
787ebc90-2be7-460b-b2be-e3055c12a6bc.gif
- Really soon. - Oh, wow. I appreciate that, guys.
a7bbda6a-a9ef-4e12-ae96-f22c58024523.gif
Well, hopefully we'll talk to each other soon.
f6b65aa5-1349-456f-8662-2d1ac2397989.gif
- Thanks. - Thanks.
f41bcd63-6aaf-4bb1-babc-ac979bbec466.gif
- Hey! - Monica!
d5a5b76a-616f-44e9-9ea7-860a53195853.gif
Congratulations! You were amazing up there.
22788ab2-d398-4501-8fa0-9369039e11e1.gif
- Thank you. - I just spoke with Peter.
d470a407-5bab-4208-aa60-1043b4f4e7bc.gif
He watched the live-stream via satellite and said he was "not unpleased."
8b442b5d-232b-4222-9614-ad8192ec04f0.gif
Oh, yeah, that's great.
485de899-496d-4580-8061-d61891255afa.gif
Uh, so I guess we're back to working together, huh?
03a4c4f1-52c3-45e7-a9d9-e53f717ea3d0.gif
Yeah. Yeah, I guess so.
5f816962-83c9-426d-8abb-1c52c7d0fe38.gif
It's gonna get pretty insane for you, Richard.
d1feed7c-a869-43ac-b1df-ef77588d547a.gif
- Yeah. - You're going to have more offers of funding
ec7d6137-d339-4eeb-bf32-ac2d2a64a548.gif
- than you're going to know what to do with. - Yeah.
2bb30196-f990-4f8f-b44f-b85c7cc7e331.gif
You're going to have to grow a business,
d332ebfc-a053-44e3-b896-e41c1c033f75.gif
- hire a staff, rent offices, get an assistant. - Mmm-hmm.
b53c32a3-e871-4bdc-814a-d03ad7aad73e.gif
Peter is going to be a lot more hands-on and a lot tougher on you.
8c34336a-35ea-4f10-808f-bc98ccb843b9.gif
People may take credit for your idea and try and sue you.
