Seems like most everyone here is ignoring that the flipper is not even an effective tool for car theft. It's capabilities have been exaggerated by staged videos.

You would have to get access to the original fob. Activate it near the flipper but out of range of the car. At which point...yes. You get one chance to unlock the original car which you lose if the original fob is used before you get there. Oh and then you gotta start it?

I don't know man. I feel like real car thieves use better tools

There are similar projects out there but I wanted to play with some APIS and to try out Python 3s async IO library.

Uses the Aylien text analysis api to summarize and the Hackernews api to get the articles

well, range in python 3 is lazy. They replaced the non lazy implementation with xranges impl.

Same applies to map, filter and I believe reduce as well.
