I personally compiled AOSP custom ROM for OnePlus One (bacon) on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. However, the ROM does not boot up and boots into fastboot mode. If I use the kernel of LineageOS 15 for bacon, the boot animation shows up temporarily but then it boots into fastboot mode. I followed all instructions correctly …

MySQL query errors when connecting from Celery task running on Heroku
I’m seeing wrong query results when executing queries against an external MySQL database, but only when connecting from Celery tasks running on Heroku.
