Wasting UUIDs, one second at a time...

UUID Waster

UUID Waster is a useless Sinatra application for wasting Universal Unique Identifiers (UUIDs). A Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) is a 128-bit number defined by RFC 4122 that is for all intents and purposes guaranteed to be unique. For example, the probability of a duplicate UUID would be about 50% if every person on earth—population approaching seven billion people—owned 600 million UUIDs.

Dependencies

  • UUID Waster uses the simple_uuid gem from Twitter to perform the UUID generation

  • It uses DataMapper as an ORM
