Hardware is not excluded. Driver in-kernel are not excluded - ALL service packs are included. ALL modules are included. nVidia not being mentioned, means they're not excluded. nVidia certainly seem to think that their drivers are open

Ok... But if you want to ignore the last twenty years, you should probably pick another name, because it has been used a particular way for two decades. If you want "more choice" - use a name unbound by a tradition old enough to d

The spec uses both UUID and GUID. You can expect the same thing for both. > This specification defines UUIDs (Universally Unique IDentifiers) -- also known as GUIDs (Globally Unique IDentifiers) -- and a Uniform Resource Name namespace f

No, its defined to a series of specifications. [0] Ones that define an underlying structure, in bits. You have a 16byte random string. Thats great. But it is not a UUID. [0] https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html

Ok... So you're not saying C is a problem. You're saying every few years, we should torch our code and rewrite from scratch, using new tools. ... Enjoy your collapsing codebase. I'll stick with what works, thanks.

Python's pathlib wouldn't help you here, it can encode the necessary bits. Especially with configparser - it's 20 year old configuration reader. Java's story is worse. What part of this would be prevented by another lang

I think the negotiation signal being sent by "all jargon" is "fuck off". It's not an attempt to gauge what level the other person is using. It's a blank wall, being thrust towards them.

Salesforce is a rather popular platform. Its defaults are also either a 18-character ID, or a 32bit integer. So, unless you take the effort to actually fight Apex, you're gonna hit this problem sooner or later.
