same. TR 1950X over here.
I can confirm that it tastes best when you wait. I occasionally go Ahi fishing off the shore of Kauai with friends, and they usually ice it right away and wait a couple of days before cutting it for sashimi.
Instamotor. met right here :)
The Instamotor Android app is entirely built using Kotlin.
At Instamotor we use Elastic Search, Redis, and S3 for files/photos. In my previous job (Nest), we looked at a decent number of options and ended up going with Cassandra.
happy to! email me at sy@instamotor.com

Thanks for restoring sanity :)
Got a good chatbot api/library to recommend?
PS: your kickstarter project rocks. We are donating!
Yeah we did that too, but we wanted to find a way to distribute it so making it an app was easier.
I'll venture to guess they're running off of AWS. CL blocks ec2 us-east ip's. So it probably wouldn't work.
I ran it for about 2 weeks. No issues. The frequency is low too.

Bay Area only for now. We'd love to expand later on.
Hi Darren -- I agree with you. I will go ahead and fix it. We are still on the fence as to what is the right amount to charge for our service, but less than 5% is the goal.
we got a lot of comment on how confusing this section is. We'll do another pass at it soon. Thanks for feedback!
ps: was everything ok and clear enough?
hey Peter, sy here from Instamotor. I think Trucar is kind of supposed to do that. Not sure if we'll ever jump into that particular segment.
Oups! I'm really short on sleep and I accidentally copy-pasted the wrong URL earlier.
Thank you for all your help!!
Thanks for the heads up! I'm on it and will be pushing an update to in a few minutes. Mind if I ping you then?
edit: I updated the header but still no update on Facebook. I'm assuming it must be cached. I will try to create a Facebook page to see if that clears it.
Actuall, that was one of the best episode of This American Life.
I spent a lot of time in Vancouver, BC; Canada is a wonderful place and I can't wait until we expand there. We'll try to tackle the San Francisco Bay Area first :)
Thanks a lot Matt! And let us know when you're selling it. We'll give you the friends and family discount :)
