Re:Postgres UUIDv7 and per-back end monotonicity on Thursday January 02, 2025 @05:14PM (#42579530)
Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.

When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."

Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.

That syntax looks horrendous
Get over yourself

And yet again. A perfectly reasonable question downvoted for no reason. God I hate this site.

What is a v7 UUID. Why do we need more than 1. uuid from a random seed and 2. one derived from that and a timestamp (orderable)

If that ever happened I would nerd up on low level architectures. Get a job in a trusted company. Leak the keys.

The only worthy cause to apply my patience to.

So why are you commenting on it now as if it hasn’t changed or evolved since then? Give it another try now. It is really good.

So exactly the point. Not their target market is it. SE Asia they are practically the number one selling phone with OPPO. And a minority (and I mean minority, perhaps a low thousands) will be wanting custom roms.

What quirks have you come across. The only annoyance for me was ssh agent having to uninstall the windows store version

Devcontainers running as non root. Trivial t set up. Don’t need to fanny around with a Vm

That loss of 1000 or so users will really affect them I am sure. Got to remember HN and hacker culture is an echo-chamber.

Nope this is to collect app store analytics without being apple.
The first image that loaded for me was his dildo
Sounds like it has little utility in the real world.
