For all numbers excepting initial load, everything I've seen shows Angular is significantly faster than the rest - the difference is more pronounced with more DOM nodes. Angular also has the advantage of incremental update, although React will also gain that benefit within a year as well.

Note: I used to work primarily with Angular, but I currently use React since the coding style encouraged with React works better with the team I'm on & React is fast enough to us.
CL-PPCRE turns a PCRE string into a parse tree, as a native data structure, and the programmer has full access to this interface. For example, the sample regex:

/(?<year>\d{4})-(?<month>\d{2})-(?<day>\d{2})/u

could be specified in your program as something like:

((:named-register "year" (:greedy-repetition 4 4 :digit-class))
"-"
(:named-register "month" (:greedy-repetition 2 2 :digit-class))
"-"
(:named-register "day" (:greedy-repetition 2 2 :digit-class)))

(Whether this is easier to read depends on your relative familiarity with CL and PCRE. It's a lot easier to generate or manipulate with native CL functions, though, if you ever need to do that.)

Most HLLs today wrap an existing C regular expression library, and I don't know any C regular expression library that provides a public interface to its parse tree, so it's unlikely that other languages will be able to do something similar without a lot of work.

Of course, regular-expressions-as-strings are still strings, so if you only need to write them, you can get most of the benefit by using your language's native string facilities: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=241373
US is becoming more like that over time too, if you look at a lot of the new builds in subdivisions it's hard to imagine them lasting that long.

I wonder if at some point the cultural attitude to "old houses" will become more like Japan's.

[edit]: I find the downvotes curious - I know plenty of people living in ~120 year old houses, and plenty living in 5-15 year old new builds in subdivisions. None of us can really see the new ones being in service in another 110 years. So what I am curious about is - will this (apparent) fact change attitudes towards houses over time? It may just be selection bias. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of things about newer builds that are improvements; longevity doesn't seem to be one of them. Of course the older houses have their own set of problems.

Ask HN: Why is GitHub so conservative with their API?
I was thinking about making an app that tells you what's your rank against other contributors in Github repo's that you've contributed to.

I came to this repository that gets what repos a user has contributed to, and to my surprise it can take hours to get all repos a user has contributed to!

Why don't github provide this very basic functionality in their API?
Ha. The idea of using Detroit for TWD, or even perhaps it's own spinoff series, is pretty gold, tbh.
I have no need for what MakerDAO offers. Do you?
Disagree. Alcohol abuse makes people dangerous. Certain people struggle with this more than others, and since they won't regulate themselves we have elected representatives and law enforcement who have a responsibility to step in and regulate this for them.

> This man's life spiraled out of control for one reason.. the punitive nature of law enforcement...

False. It spiraled out of control because of his own selfish decisions.
Do you have data to back that up, or are you speaking from personal experience? I know how it can go wrong, but SPAs can become a mess too.

I had one project where we built a very beautiful, modern site that had about 50 lines of js in total. Of course your page-change times are going to be around 0.5s with an MPA, but SPAs are often slower than that anyway.
i don't know what else mylan makes, or how much is epipens, or whatever, but if we look at their 2017 financials, and removed all R&D, they'd have had a profit of ~1.2B on total revenue of ~11.9B. so they could shave an average of 10% off the cost of their product line and still break even.

maybe there are other places costs can be cut, but as you'd expected ( http://www.aei.org/publication/the-public-thinks-the-average... ) they're not wildly more profitable than other companies.

Uh, sure?

The Mylan version will also probably cost less than list for most people (though Mylan will get their money, just like the generic maker).

Also, you're correct that the price will come down over time. If the FDA had said, "this approval is part of a process that will eventually lower the cost within the next couple of years," then the article would make no sense. That's not what they said when this generic version was released.

The article is not claiming that generic drugs don't reduce prices. It is claiming that the narrative from the FDA, that this approval will reduce costs, is largely false.
Whether we are fans or not, keeping up with (and discussing) new AWS offerings is extremely relevant for practitioners.

I agree that this article is misleading but the cost to consume is super hard to get to in most cases. Most pharma companies don't know what price the end consumer ends up paying due to all the complications of the convoluted health insurance system, to find the cost and prior authorizations of a drug you may need to consult a dozen separate documents, and if you've got spousal insurance all that complication doubles or more.

> But once it's a coffee shop you don't get it?

Exactly. Let me explain an example. I ran into an old friend once close to a Tully's a couple of years back and went in to get some coffee and catch up. Unfortunately there was no place for us to sit down at a table because all the tables were taken by single individuals working on their laptops. One of them was actually in a conf call. So we skipped that and went to have brunch at a full blown restaurant.

The divorce agreement called for $8k/month alimony. That's something like $150k per year out of his pre-tax income.

I don't know about Stanich's mental state and finances. But if I were forced by the courts to sign such an agreement, reneging and drinking myself to death within a year would look like an extremely tempting way out.

Houses are depreciating assets. It's the land that has value most places.
Ah, sorry. I should've known you'd already be on it. Thanks.
IIRC this is why living in Tokyo is actually affordable compared to, say, New York City.
Unless I'm missing something, community property doesn't affect alimony, it affects division of assets acquired during marriage (that is a community property state, generally assets acquired during marriage are treated as shared 50/50 in divorce.) Though I suppose a settlement of divorce could trade off one for the other, and having more claim on marital assets to trade could lead to higher average alimony when settlements are considered.

part of what you're paying for with your drugs is quality control to ensure that you 1) made what you wanted to make 2) didn't contaminate it with something you didn't want.
A solution to this particular problem could be to make the patents on the existing, known to be safe methods expire earlier, so that in order to retain a monopoly on something big pharma must make a significant patentable improvement.

Critics of this policy say that it would disincentive new drug development. That may be true, but for many people it doesn’t matter because they can’t afford them at current monopoly rates anyways, and our insurance industry is broken for them.

I wonder how you would go about researching a better patent-expiration scheme and the effects it would have.

Edit: maybe I misunderstood you- are you saying even with no patent protection, the barrier to entry is still high enough to disincentivize new entrants because of safety regulation and retooling costs? So patents aren’t the only roadblock, or not even necessarily the main roadblock?

I have no trouble believing this, but I don't think this transfers to the OP. Facebook is not a startup anymore, and end users are not even Facebook's direct customers (they sell ads, not accounts).

But more tellingly, why stop at race (and other protected classes)? Why not optimize for the right balance of first spoken language, political party affiliation, age, family net worth, educational background, number of children?

A little bit offtopic but in the last couple of days Amazon released a bunch of products. What is happening?
My math:

Provisioned:
$0.00065 per WCU. One WCU is 1 write per second for an hour = 3600 writes. So 277 WCU is 1 million writes in an hour. Cost is $0.18 per million write requests. (If you reserve this for a year it's $0.08 per million write requests.)

We generally run our tables with autoscaling set to 70% of capacity, so at $0.18 per million write requests our effective cost is $0.25 per million write requests. A good deal cheaper than on demand.

We have a few tables where we run closer to 30% of target capacity because of hot shards. There our effective cost is $0.60 per million write requests, which is still cheaper than on demand (assuming on demand doesn't have the hot shard problem).

I'm having trouble understanding when this would be beneficial.
Its just thinking of your house as a depreciating asset instead of an appreciating one. Much like a car. I actually can't imagine wanting to live in the same house for more than 10 years.
These tunnels can have a bunch of buses running in them next to each other (ie a train). Cars are great. When there is no congestion you get fast point-to-point transportation at any time. We should work on making this mode of transportation better, not trying to kill it. Make the cars more energy efficient, underground roads to fix the noise and land use problems, make them automatic to reduce deaths, etc.

Would you ban a teleportation system that was energy efficient and insist people take trains and subways? Trains and subways are much inferior mode of transport compared to a functioning road system with vechicles. I wonder why so many people have this car hate? Scared of driving a car? They are dangerous and you have to pay attention to drive them, so that makes some sense to me. Some kind of socialist reason that people should be forced into contact with random other people. Sitting at home is what one should be doing instead of going places? Where did you get this idea that cars where some kind of evil device?

That would be quite illegal, those UK and Canadian epiphendrine injectors haven't been subject to FDA regulation. It would be a really good idea, granted, but there are plenty of less radical ways to solve the problem. It doesn't seem to have a positive effect on health outcomes (due to effects on availability) but US drug regulations are pretty much the tightest in the world and allowing foreign imports would be a relaxation of that.
If I remember correctly the rule of thumb is that a house is built to last 30 years, a normal building 60 years, and a high rise 90 years.
