What is this?
Random number generation is extremely important for computer security and the computer that Luke uses has a bug that causes one part of the computer to generate insufficiently-random numbers. Such a bug would make it far easier for people to guess private keys.
However, see my other comment -- there's a possibility this also isn't what enabled the theft of Luke Jr's BTC.
