Regarding multiple nodes, Wouldn't each node generate a different random number? It mentions not requiring a MAC but it should use some way to seed the rng diff

Regarding multiple nodes, Wouldn't each node generate a different random number? It mentions not requiring a MAC but it should use some way to seed the rng differently per node, right? However this would defeat the lexicographic sorting.
- BeeOnRope 8y agoYes, each node would have different random values, but sorting works because time is at the start of the UUID so "more significant", and sort order within a millisecond is not guaranteed.
