That doesn't sound like it would require a lot of code.

"The settlement"? Not gonna cut it.

Damn prompt engineering has become an art already. No wonder so many people have been left behind.

I probably would've done the same. "I don't remember what the function is called" would've been fine-ish, but reaching for a regex is just insane.

This doesn't sound correct. Source?

Personally I've always called this style "declarative schema management" since the input declares the desired state, and the tool figures out how to transition the database to that state.

Personally I've called it a mistake, since there's no way a tool can infer what happened based on that information.

I renamed a column and it added a new one.

If you use streaming replication (ie. WAL shipping over the replication connection), a single replica getting really far behind can eventually cause the primary to block writes. Some time back I commented on the behaviour: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45758543

I'd like to know more, since I don't understand how this could happen. When you say "block", what do you mean exactly?
