How many NYC taxi trips are uniquely identifiable by census tracts and the hour of pickup time

40% of NYC Taxi Trips are Uniquely Identified by Pickup/Drop Off Census Tracts and Hour

In my recent post analyzing 1.1 billion NYC taxi and Uber trips, I included a section about privacy concerns which showed how precise latitude/longitude coordinates of taxi pickups and drop offs could potentially be used to reveal personal information about where people live, work, socialize, etc.

I wrote that if the Taxi & Limousine Commission wanted to avoid disclosing personal information, they would have to remove latitude/longitude from the dataset, perhaps replacing them with coarser census tract location data. Now it seems like maybe census tracts are still too precise.

I hadn't previously investigated how well census tracts uniquely identify pickups and drop offs, but **it turns out that if you

Random ideas for Programming Language Syntax I'd Like To See. Using Python syntax highlighting for the code snippets because some syntax is similar enough that python-style highlighting improves readability.

Thoughts and Rationale

This isn't a comprehensive language design, it's just ideas for syntactical constructs I'd really like to see some day. It'd probably be some kind of object/functional hybrid a la Scala - I really like the recent trend of "post-functional" languages that take a lot of ideas/influence from functional programming, but aren't fascist about it, or so scary that only math Ph.Ds can learn them. The idea is to fuse OOP and FP into a language which gives you a high level of expressiveness and power, but is actually useable for Getting Real Things Done.

Benchmarking Nginx with Go

Benchmarking Nginx with Go

There are a lot of ways to serve a Go HTTP application. The best choices depend on each use case. Currently nginx looks to be the standard web server for every new project even though there are other great web servers as well. However, how much is the overhead of serving a Go application behind an nginx server? Do we need some nginx features (vhosts, load balancing, cache, etc) or can you serve directly from Go? If you need nginx, what is the fastest connection mechanism? This are the kind of questions I'm intended to answer here. The purpose of this benchmark is not to tell that Go is faster or slower than nginx. That would be stupid.

So, these are the different settings we are going to compare:

  • Go HTTP standalone (as the control group)
  • Nginx proxy to Go HTTP
  • Nginx fastcgi to Go TCP FastCGI
  • Nginx fastcgi to Go Unix Socket FastCGI

Below are simple styles to "flatten" bootstrap. I didn't go through every control and widget that bootstrap offers, only what was required for https://commando.io, so your milage may vary.

Checkout github pull requests locally

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = git@github.com:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:
