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

Thank Bejesus, we solved that problem

Surely that’s what UUIDs are for

[–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I love you b011c1ad-b091-42d4-bc2e-a6c41c8117dc

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

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year 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@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year 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

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago
[–] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] emptyother@programming.dev 2 points 1 year 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.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

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

I feel similar about gardening
