title: DELETE entry that is older than current datetime in MySQL
body: <p>I have tried the following among various other statements but thought one of these should obviously work but no luck so far. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. Not getting an error, it's just not working.<p></p>
  <code>DELETE FROM table_name WHERE from &lt; NOW()</code><br>
  <code>DELETE FROM table_name WHERE from &lt; '2022-04-16 08:00:00'</code><p></p>
