I'm not familiar with this library, how does `text("(now())")` evaluate and why there are extra parentheses? And should that be a lambda expression as well, so that `create_date` isn't just the timestamp when the python process was started?

#15But what I don't understand is how this wasn't caught after the first failure? Does this company not have any logging? Shouldn't the fact the backend is attempting to reuse UUIDs be immediately obvious from observing the error?

#17"Note: I want to preface this by saying yes the practices here are bad and could have been avoided. This was from a different time under large time constraints. Please read with that in mind" These "constraints" are why I'm terrified of subscribing to software
The previous world where you buying per user seat licenses for hundreds and hundreds of dollars wasn't great.

#18I understand how the mistake was made, it seems relatively easy to slip by even when writing code without ChatGPT. But what I don't understand is how this wasn't caught after the first failure? Does this company not have any logging? Shouldn't the fact the backend is attempting to reuse UUIDs be immediately obvious from observing the error?

#19Thanks for telling. Bookmarked for the next time we're told ChatGPT's code error rate is acceptable because we review its code just like an intern's.
I had to fix some intern code once, and… well, I can't give too many details, but I will say that an FAQ shouldn't consist entirely of quotations from a TV show from a different country in a language the app doesn't support.
