MyUUIDshop, Generate UUIDs and never worry about duplicates
In response to some recent discussion here and on X about a company having an in house uuid microservice and team dedicated to it. At first that was made fun of, but further discussion revealed in fact sometimes uuids can collide due to improper entropy seeding most likely. In order to ensure that UUIDs are unique, we store each generation in a database, then check new generations against it to ensure they are not previously generated. As well, there is an API through which you can check if a UUID is present in the database. Paid options available for heavy use. Enjoy!

- GVGenerate Version 7 UUID's for a Timestamp2025 · uuidv7.org · ▲20
I use UUIDv7's in multiple places as an efficient index in Postgres. When querying this data I usually need to be able to query between a time range so wanted to have a quick way to generate a reference ID that I could use in a BETWEEN query. All the simple, fast tools I found online were focused on generating bulk ids or converting from an ID to a timestamp rather than the other way around, so I wrote one myself. For example if I wanted to find everything that happened between 2025-03-11T13:00:00.000Z and 2025-03-11T13:59:59.999Z I can type in the timestamp, select earliest (or latest) to…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
