Turbo 8 is truly magic. This is what I want for DX - total magic. I don't want to think about `useEffects` or dependencies. You're a computer, figure out that shit for me! This is as close to the magic rush I felt building a desktop app in Visual Basic.

A good reminder as to why you shouldn't use UUIDs as primary keys in #rails : all of the batch methods get totally nerfed. They fall back to string comparisons so your ordering becomes gibberish. Could maybe use ULIDs or UUIDv6s (not sure if PG has support for them).
