Because some of these APIs are useful in an enterprise app setting that aren't distributed via the App Store. Like Disney applications on their turnstile devices at Disney World.

Absolutely no IE support though.

I think he's recommending it, more so than assuming it's what he uses.

Not everyone uses Cloudflare for their proxying service. I use them purely for my DNS, but don't have the MITM proxy enabled at all. His scraping is a better idea probably.

To be fair the script is probably the same as what is in their repos, it probably wasn't set to report to a logging service that'd raise red flags.

This was a post about offline-first clients, and N1 requires the sync engine to function (which I suppose can be run locally if wanted but you lose some features. )

Here's what I see: http://m.imgur.com/NklUwqe

It's also the same on my desktop.

So I subscribed, but the site says the next kit ships in November 2016. When do new subscribers expect to see their kits?

The 50 bucks only gets you your first Uno for free, recurring you don't get additional Unos. (I'm a customer, not someone from Thimble)

Eh. Hence why I said it like I did. In most cases, the device generates the secrets. And that's how it should be done, it guarantees that they can't be compromised easily (vs if someone compromised wherever you backed up those keys to).

You lose it and it's gone. You can't remove credentials on the device. This is why you buy two, register both, and save one in a safe.

EDIT: I mean you can't copy credentials off in most cases, like this one. Credentials can be replaced.
