got pissed off again that uuidv4 is the only version of any meaning, and my IETF gaydar immediately recognized their handiwork. turns out randomly generating a 128-bit integer requires implementing an IETF document now? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier
Their uniqueness does not depend on a central registration authority or coordination between the parties generating them,
IETF declares self obsolete!
When generated according to the standards,
i'm gonna break the web!!! i'm gonna do it!!!!
