  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • STC

    A modern, user friendly, generic, type-safe and fast C99 container library: String, Vector, Sorted and Unordered Map and Set, Deque, Forward List, Smart Pointers, Bitset and Random numbers. (by stclib)

  • sfc64 is about the same speed as sfc32, so almost twice as fast per bit generated on most 64-bit platforms. I have a slightly modified version in my STC library which is equally fast, but supports threads/streams, similar to PCG. The lack of streams or jump function is one of the few criticisms to sfc. In my mind it is merely a theoretical limitation, as the chance for repeating subsequence are incredible small, but if you need that assurance, my variant can be interesting as it is quite a bit faster than e.g. xoshiro and not sensitive to "bad" seeds.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
