How I Solved my NYC Parking Problem with Python

A working Python pipeline watches the @NYCASP feed and checks for "suspended" and "tomorrow" in recent-search results, then sends an SMS via Twilio when alternate-side is off so moving the car is unnecessary. Code lives at github.com/twitterdev/parking, uses the Twitter API recent search with a bearer token, parses the last ~10 tweets in pandas, and runs on a DigitalOcean server via cron (considered Lambda). It reliably produces a text when suspension appears.
