Quoting John Kalucki :
K-sorted means roughly sorted, where no item is no more than K positions
from it's totally ordered position. A sequence is k-sorted IFF, for all i,r,
1<= i <= r <= n, i<= r-k implies that a(i) <= a(r).
The generation scheme has to allow sufficient IDs to be generated in a

the matt harris informs us:
6) Why not restrict IDs to 53bits?
A Snowflake ID is composed:
* 41bits for millisecond precision time (69 years)
* 10bits for a configured machine identity (1024 machines)
* 12bits for a sequence number (4096 per machine)
The factor influencing the length of the ID
