Understanding How UUIDs Are Generated
After discovering ULIDs [0] I can't see ever using UUIDs ever again.ULIDs are sortable (time component), short (26 chars) and nearly human readable, and good enough entropy/randomness for everything I'd ever be working on.Does anyone have any criticisms of ULIDs? I can't see how they don't take over general purpose use of unique ids in the future except where a more guarantee of uniqueness is needed. (ie, bajillion records a second unique...)[0] https://github.com/ulid/spec
