    There's more! I keep a list of interesting "bases" A select few:

    - base 58 - Satoshi's/Bitcoin's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding#Base58

    - "base62" - Keybase's saltpack https://github.com/keybase/saltpack

    - The famous "Adobe 85" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascii85

    - basE91 - https://base91.sourceforge.net

    At work we defined several new "bases" for QR code. IMHO, it is an under applied area of computer science.

    We have a uuidv7 implementation that we've been using with rocksdb for over a year https://github.com/matrixai/js-id
  • Plan B for UUIDs: double AES-128

    We evaluated ULID but we wanted something that is future proof for our decentralised secret sharing system. So we implemented UUIDv7 in TypeScript called `IdSortable` https://github.com/MatrixAI/js-id

    It allows strict monotonic IDs when you provide it the previously generated ID. The resulting data structure is a Uint8Array making it easy to put into binary structures. Can also be used as a key inside any POJO record.

    I had reviewed existing UUIDv7 implementations and many were incorrect or had subtle timing bugs.

    We ended up implementing UUIDv7 in our ID generation library https://github.com/MatrixAI/js-id. And we have a number of tests ensuring that it is truly monotonic even across process restarts.

    See IdSortable.
