Started in BASIC, went through Pascal, SQL , Assembly, C, C++, Objective C and C++. dbase, Foxpro, Clipper, JavaScript, TypeScript, Angular, React, AWS, NoSQL - and stuff, I didn't list , but the long and short is whatever it took to get the job done.
So not long ago I started to hear (well, my boss told me of it) about something called ULID. No, not UUID, but ULID. It's similar, but not completely random. ULID uses the current time as a basis, then throws some randomness in to make sure it is unique.
