The post begins:

So, you know those cars with that keyless entry pad? The one under the driver's side handle?

And ends with:

I am going to give you a sequence of minimal length that, when you enter it into a car's numeric keypad, is guaranteed to unlock the doors of said car. It is exactly 3129 keypresses long, which should take you around 20 minutes to go through.
