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!

What it does
Production-grade UUID infrastructure. Every identifier is checked against our database before issuance.
Production-grade UUID infrastructure for teams that take uniqueness seriously. Every identifier we issue is checked against our database of every UUID we have ever issued. Before any identifier leaves our servers, it is validated against every UUID we have previously issued. Zero false positives. Zero collisions since launch. Our uptime is backed by a published on-call commitment and explicit operational invariants. We treat identifier integrity as a tier-zero service. UUID dispensaries on every continent. Single-region failover. Anycast routing to the nearest uniqueness pool. Submit any identifier to confirm whether it was issued by myuuid.shop and is recorded as unique in our database.…from myuuid.shop

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

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…
