Unfortunately, no. However, we are excited to move into all of the places that can't afford Park Chicago.

Absolutely. We work with the current infrastructure. This means the coin based meters, or kiosks, etc.
Our goal is to keep their costs down, by integrating with whatever they have.

I forgot to add, PPA lost only $100K in ticket revenue.

Actually, a counter example of this is when the City of Pittsburgh rolled out kiosks to accept credit cards. In the 2011 fiscal year, the Parking Authority earned $7.1 million from its metered parking spaces. In 2012, that amount climbed to $9.2 million, and in 2013, without December figures included, it increased to $12.2 million.

Great question. We only store the data the the municipality needs to enforce tickets. All personal data is stored directly on the phone.

Thanks, Norman. We've recently rolled out to a few more areas around Pittsburgh. Looks like there are another five, in Southwester PA, switching to us over the next few months.

I pay $6/sq ft for my office in Braddock, right outside of Pittsburgh, PA.
...that's $6/sq ft for a year.
So two months paying for my two bedroom apartment, in Mountain View, can get me more than a year of rent for my office.
Re:SFMTA publishes list of names with license plates

Unfortunately, no. There was no rhyme or reason to the way that they formatted the names. I guess I could implement a fuzzy search, but I'm still at work.

Hey, I'm Jim. We made the page, to make everyone's life a little easier (SFMTA's PDF process was a little cumbersome). Hopefully, you get some money. If you don't, that's still good news, amirite?

Thanks for this. I scraped all of the PDF data, and threw it in a DB. Now it's searchable.

At least they're trying...amirite?
“The Ethnic List”
So, here's an interesting tid-bit. I just got an email from Google. I began the interview process with them last year, but stopped in order to pursue other opportunities. Well, they sent me a survey today, to see how they can do better with the interview process.Welp...they didn't BCC everyone on the list. They CC'd everyone. Which means that we see all 500 people that this was going to. Much...

Re:Tesla Model S JSON API

I use this API daily. I agree with some of the others. It works. I don't really care if it's REST or not.
Of course, if the API is going to be growing, you may want to organize it in a guessable format...also, if it's going to be growing, I wouldn't mind helping/testing. :D

There were 2 women in my class, my first year at CMU. Really helped me to focus on my studies.
Anyway, it's hard to do better. I'm just glad that they are.

As a black American, I wish that I were suprised at some of the comments in the video.
Read the fine manual
https://github.com/onelifemedia/grunt-rtfm
Many times, people never look at the documentation that I write. So I made a grunt task, that slurps in the properly formatted documentation. The task then creates a js file. When included in your page, is makes an object accessible in your console called rtfm.When you type rtfm.something, the console prints out the documentation for "something" (provided it exists).Let me know what you think!
