I'm very excited about this. We'll be able to simplify our processing quite a bit. This is what we do now: Why Short Term memory is a thing: forgetting as a creative act

The API seems down in general for me right now.

I'm not sure that I'd use the language "blame", but I believe that Tesla is doing it. If I had to make up a story based on zero evidence and wild speculation, there's probably someone one AWS slamming them and inadvertently DOSing them. Since places like heroku don't give you fixed IPs, they...

We've spread over a few different cloud providers, google and digital ocean seem to have access.

I treat it as the time that the tesla servers last got data from the car.

That's a unique feature! Very fun.

That was a weird night over here at mission control...

We'd love to add it, but right now we're still looking for the API for supercharger availability that's shown on the map.

We have both iOS and Android, we'll ask which one you'd like when we get through the list. (We are letting people on in batches to ease the load.)

That's basically right -- the app isn't public quite yet. We're working through emails now, we got over 1000 people signed up for the beta over the last few days. We had planned on inviting 50 folks a day, but we're having to upgrade our plans. We've been working on scaling up the backend...

Teslab is both Android and iOS

You shouldn't need to use the same email address. Can you message me your email addresses and I can take a look. The reason there is no Twitter login on Android is because there's a bug in the react native implementation of the Twitter SDK. Once that's fixed we should be it in
