How I solved my NYC parking problem with Python!
summary
A small service polls the @NYCASP feed via the Twitter Developer Labs recent search endpoint, looks for the words suspended and tomorrow in the same tweet, and sends an SMS via Twilio when parking is off. Code is in the twitterdev/parking repo, written in Python, runs on a DigitalOcean droplet as a cron job, and demonstrably sends texts so nights are no longer spent driving around for nothing.
