Seems like a phishing Expedition, that puts me on Edge and makes me want to Escape.

More Probe-ing questions from Griff!

Then trade it in for a Pinto!

I inherited an old Pinto station wagon many many years ago. It was a POS but it refused to die.

My sister had one many, many years ago, it too was a POS. No fuel fires for that one.

Well, I don't own a Ford, so I can Dodge that bullet.

And when you find it, it's a Fiesta.

Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

IDs should never be meaningfully sortable. It must be a meaningless operation.

Hmm. I could argue that any sequence of bytes can be used as a sort key, as long as your sort comparison handles it correctly.
Sorting a data structure on a binary key is useful for improving search times based on those key values.

Still doesn't address two different machines generating a ULID at the same time and hitting the same pseudo-random number for the remaining 80 bits. This is the same flaw as the GLID found in Windows.

What's the actual chance?
|
|
|
|

Oh, my, so much fail in such a small space.
The primary advantage of this is it is sortable and the canonical way to sort is to covert into ASCII strings and compare them?
That is just one of the fails... I will stop before I go into rant mode...

I didn't realise that the Soapbox still existed yet when I search for messages I get recent hits from it, I just don't seem to be able to access it.
Do I need to request access somehow?

Are you sure? The Soapbox was closed some time ago.

Yeah, I thought so too.
Check this

If you notice all those message are date 1 Sept 2021, so something odd there. Maybe @Chris-Maunder needs to clean them out.

Yeah, I just thought it was odd that I could see it at all. Thought there was some secret group I was missing out on!
