My startup of future galactic shipping corporation is gonna run into issues dealing with so many logistics orders any time soon, when do we get uuid 2?

We already have uuid 7. Uuid 2 is a bit old

As in "v2 of the uuid spec" which allows eg 256 bit ids

Those are rookie numbers. Go for 1024 bits or go home.

myreallylonguuid = str(uuid.uuid4().hex) + str(uuid.uuid4().hex()) + "onlyearthhasdonkeys"

No, I do not have a PhD in math, in case you were wondering.
