datatofuDiscovered an elegant "cheat code" for "Jenny" (Ident-Smith) to preserve full acronyms for our special requirements while maintaining micro-precision sortable IDs. Hybrid-base strings are the way. Identity shouldn't be a black box; it should be a sortable, high-precision map of exactly when and where a process began.

HabrULID, UUIDv4 и UUIDv7 в логах nginx: как сделать поиск по ID быстрым и удобным в ClickHouse
Когда вы работаете с распределённой системой — будь то микросервисы, фронтенд + бэкенд или nginx + приложение — жизненно важно иметь возможность «протянуть» один и тот же идентификатор запроса через все её компоненты. Это позволяет сопоставлять логи из разных источников, быстро находить ошибки и проводить корреляционный анализ. В nginx для этого из коробки есть переменная $request_id — 32-символьный hex-идентификатор (например, a1b2c3d4e5f678901234567890abcdef ). Его можно передать бэкенду через proxy_set_header X-Request-ID $request_id; или fastcgi_param HTTP_X_REQUEST_ID $request_id; , а также сохранить в access-логах. Однако стандартный $request_id — это просто случайная строка без временной привязки и без структуры, удобной для аналитики. В этой статье мы рассмотрим, как улучшить ситуацию с помощью ULID и UUIDv7.
PerryI just released the first major update for the ULID unique ID generation library in over 8 years! I’ve been following it as a user for years, having even forked it for ulidx when it wasn’t being maintained. It’s fulfilling to not only see it updated (as I use it a lot), but having done so myself.
If you’re building a new feature and are about to reach for an ID generator (like UUID), you might consider trying ULIDs instead: https://github.com/ulid/javascript

Tomas Ekelithere seems to be a lot of excitement for #uuidV7 these days (timestamp-based). it's very cool, and a good choice if you're using the #uuid or #guid as a database key (to avoid fragmentation)

i also really like #ulid for this, and they can be converted to uuids/guids easily and quickly.
one thing i don't see many people talk about when they move to monotonically incrementing ids (like v7/ulid) is this: if you have a distributed database you will end up with poor balancing with these ids. not what most people do, i guess, but it's something to think about.

David CrossonJust discovered : #ziolmdb next & previous operations also work with any identifiers even not in use ones, #lmdb will just peek the nearest one ! As https://github.com/dacr/sotohp #sotohp is using #ULID (time based) I'll get instant move to any date for free :) Going to add a #javafx #scalafx time navigate UI component
