Funnily enough, the reason they switched to those was to use the data to train machine learning (AI) models, just like Google’s recaptcha was originally pictures of words from old, scanned books so they could transcribe all of them “for free” and train their transcription algorithms.

So you’re always behind, patching up small bits of code that don’t comply with your guidelines, while letting big changes with, by deduction, worse code quality through?

You don’t quite understand. One of the major drawbacks of UUIDs over monotonically increasing id’s is the lack of ability to sort them. Not just for manual querying, but for index operations, caching, data locality etc.

It’s very handy and is a big part of the reason why Twitter developed Snowflake IDs, which are basically like UUIDs v6 and v7.

The UUIDs specs are quite easy to understand and definitely not “enterprisey”.

They chose “version” because they are just that, versions. Improvements over the original design that benefit from new insights and technological improvements. We’re lucky they had the foresight to include a version number in the spec.

A lot of people in this thread who don’t fully understand how UUIDs work…

What do you think [sic] means? Do you expect the average urban dictionary contributor to be able to spell?

The problem was that one of his friends was connected to the airport’s public Wi-Fi, so the photo ended up with British intelligence.

This doesn’t make sense at all, it all goes over encrypted connections, the airport’s wifi doesn’t act as a hoover for data, they can’t decrypt it without the private keys. Muuuuch more likely is that Snapchat cooperates with Five Eye’s intelligence, apparently screening private chats for key phrases and forwarding them on to governments.

They might have been required to, under the terms they negotiated.

It’s more that your phone has one accidentally registered you typing it capitalized and remembered it as a “name”, deleting that suggestion allows it to reverts to the non-capitalized version.

Long press on the wrong suggestion usually gives you an option to delete it from the dictionary.

It’s the beauty of the fediverse

It could be called a dark pattern?

I mean, StarBorgs was right there!

What language is that?

Well, they definitely won’t get their hands on them now!

This has old internet vibes, I love it

Anyone know why parts of the photos are censored?

300 million in actual aid, 2 billion as long term loans.

You have narrow view of what a bot is.

This shit makes me so sad for our future.
