Off topic but I bet you could tell the difference between an espresso shot pulled after stirring the grounds to ensure even distribution vs one that hasn't been messed with. I'm not saying you can tell the difference between stirring with a toothpick vs stirring with tiny metal tines. You can actually observe a difference in how the water flows through the grounds, you can measure how much coffee has been extracted into the water with a refractometer, and you can do a blind taste test and identify which is which. If the grounds are not evenly distributed, you get channels where the water passes through under high pressure, and this over extracts those grounds making the shot taste extremely bitter, and other grinds are left untouched or under extracted. I was very skeptical of this until I observed it myself.

Somewhat off topic but how does one make that cool 3D architecture diagram?

For what it's worth, my Model 3 from December 2018 with 35K miles on it has only had one issue (with squeaking upper control arms) and they replaced it under warranty, coordinated through the mobile app. I haven't had any other issues that would indicate build quality is terrible.

Here is more on how they reduced the binary sizes: https://twitter.com/bradfitz/status/1256350305739915265

I think a machine learning algorithm wouldn't care about that, because with a large enough training data set it would start to account for that and be able to accurately predict energy output based on the image alone.

Done!

Is there an advantage to attaching the filter to the front of the fan so air is blown through it (as shown in the video) versus taping it to the back of the fan so air is sucked through it? Just curious if that would make any difference. It might be easier to get the filter to stay if it's getting sucked to the fan.

I used to live on the UWS and remember Citrus. Never encountered Coastal but do recall an eclectic menu. (No burritos though!)

I run into answers by Erwin Brandstetter on StackOverflow just about every time I search for something related to Postgres. I’m curious about his background and how he became such an expert in this area... it’s inspiring and extremely helpful!

Google is going to split their sync tool into a consumer tool (Backup and Sync) and business tool (Drive File Stream); I think they stopped updating their main sync client a while back in preparation for this split. I think the business tool is the only one that will allow for files to appear locally that aren't actually downloaded. It's still in beta.

It took me way too long to realize the article was not referring to a computer virus.

Reminds me of the first episode of Twin Peaks where there is reflection of key evidence in the eyes of a character in a video recording...

This was a good post from a few years ago on HN with tips on working with PostgreSQL via the command line (and your favorite text editor): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5214072

I used TM 1 back in the day, then used Sublime for a while (3-4 months), but got curious and started using TM 2 and have kept with it ever since. On a Mac it just felt snappier and more native, but it might just be that old habits die hard. I installed Janus today and keep trying to make the jump but can't get myself to stick with it.

Is it ok to up-vote because I want to increase the visibility of the outage? :/ I remember when 4hr+ API downtime on heroku would make it to the front page in no time. I'm sure their team is having a heck of a morning, and wish them the best. Hopefully some lessons are learned that make this issue avoidable in the future. If they say it's high load on an API database, you'd think they'd be well-equipped to scale that up or at least have a backup waiting... but hard to speculate from the outside.

The account I found on this list was captured in the adobe.com breach (http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2013/10/important-custo...)

This is scaring us -- we rely on Heroku every day have large marketing pushes scheduled weeks in advance. This maintenance will forcefully interrupt any running attached processes, so it really is shocking they are planning this during midday.

I'd love to see how the detection works; is it just based on a fuzzy match on between the referred users' email addresses?
