- kristofferR 10y agoBeautifiers should use something like Gfycat uses for their URLs instead, that would be prettier and simpler/faster to understand. > Most randomly generated URLs look like this: G1XeD4SwlHReDA. We thought it would be fun to do it differently. Our URLs follow the nomenclature: AdjectiveAdjectiveAnimal This is enough to give us a namespace of billions, while also letting humans write them easier. You’re welcome! https://gfycat.com/about https://gfycat.com/about
- stincity 10y agoWouldn't that just make the code more confusing? You'd get some random name that doesn't mean anything to what its intended purpose is. Keeping the simple 'a-z' scheme the beautifier does allows people to not use the variable name as a descriptor of what it handles.
