There are definitely systems out there whose clocks are not accurate to the millisecond. It's not healthy for systems to encourage false assumptions (e.g., that ids monotonically increase).
- nixpulvis 8y agoI was surprised to find nothing about clock synchronization or quality in the README... > Monotonic sort order (correctly detects and handles the same millisecond) EDIT: None of these concerns are directly related to the data format, but would be something I'd explain before users make false assumptions.
