Hacks/Hackers NYC: Encryption and Operational Security for Journalists (2013-09-16)

Background

• NSA covers 75% of internet traffic; not all is collected or sifted
• Big issues with suveillance are not the NSA but leak investigations, subpoenas, accidental disclosure and chilling effects on sources

Geocoding 10,000 addresses a second with NYC's Geosupport library and Node FFI

Following on Chris Whong's excellent writeup of how to make calls directly to NYC's Geosupport client and this first attempt at generalizing it, here's a way that let me geocode about 10,000 addresses a second on Ubuntu using Node FFI.
