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.
Why? They offer it as a fallback solution you have to explicitly enable, I can imagine it's not their focus given that the regular connection is encrypted.
No it's not, what a weird take. If I publish my art online for enthusiasts to see it's not automatically licensed to everyone to distribute. If I specifically want to forbid entities I have huge ethical issues with (such as Google, OpenAI et. al.) from scraping and transforming my work, I should be able to.
When did you last check the statistic you just pulled from your ass? Bitlocker is on by default on all machines that support it, which is all pc's and laptops being sold the past few years.
The only exception used to be when you bypass oobe to create a local user account, which also isn't supported anymore.
Don't forget, when the rich donors buy these cretins' books, they propel them to the bestseller list without a legitimate copy ever having to be sold or read.
That's not true. The way their streaming works is basically a Playlist of shorter fragments. They can easily insert their own fragments without obvious visual tells if they don't alter other elements of the page to indicate that an ad is playing.
Please point out the actual transphobia? You can't just use that word willy-nilly.
