I second this, and it’s now irrevocably ratified.

Surely that’s what UUIDs are for

I always wonder, in the multiverse are these unique? Like are GUIDs unique on other planets?

[–] Maalus 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

No, there is a very very veeeery tiny chance of them not being unique. But it is so incredibly small, it doesn't matter at all. Unless you f-up the way you generate them, you are fine.

[–] jaybone 0 points 6 months ago

I’m kind of just joking about why they have a UUID vs a GUID.

If they'd spelled their band name correctly then the first syllable would've been 🐝

Nah the hardest part of keeping bees is dealing with your neighbor who keeps Japanese murder hornets

Too bad there wasn't a clan of elves named with B names, there'd be a few hives worth of names in the Silmarillion

Nah, remembering all the names is way harder. Not to mention distinguishing the individual bees...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Easy, you just name them after whatevers distinguish that bee. Like if the bee only can see on four of his five eyes, you naturally call him Foureye.

Susan Bee Anthony, Susan Bee Anthony II, Susan Bee Anthony III, Susan Bee Anthony IV, ..., I could go on but I would not want my fingers to get sore and tired.

[–] Sam_Bass 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Less problem coming up withem than it would be remembering them all

[–] AnUnusualRelic 3 points 6 months ago

Hiving them little "Hi, my name is..." tags helps a lot.

[–] recklessengagement 1 points 6 months ago
