I prefer ULIDs to UUIDs.

I don't get the relevance
He just wants to sound smart
I think I've coined about 60 million random UUIDs. I definitely have done projects on such a scale that I would have coined a few billion UUIDs if I'd used UUIDs.
everything that could go wrong , can and will go wrong
Except this, apparently.
I clicked this thinking and hoping someone saw a collision. Disappointing that wasn't the case.
