It seems the NY times paywall doesn't get fooled by turning off
Javascript in developer tools anymore.   :(

I'm just getting sick of seeing the disparity in charging - seeing 14
Tesla superchargers and 4 EVGo chargers, then finding out that 2 of the
EVgo chargers aren't working.

I've started commuting 75 miles each way in my BMW i3, which gets aroud
120 miles highway plus another 70 miles with the gas-powered range
extender. I've had very poor luck finding a working charger along my
route - even the chargers in my company's parking lot were working at
25% capacity (1 of 4).

And, not only do I need to take time out to charge, but getting on and
off the freeway adds delays during commute hours.

The parking lot finally installed 12 new chargers, and it's been great.
I get in at around 50% charge, charge during the day, move my car around
2pm, get a cup of coffee and go back to the office. Drive home with a
full charge.
