      I let my children pick their own 96-bit number and just hope there’s no collisions.

        I just name my children using GUIDs. To keep things simple I normally call them by the first 32 bits, but when they’re getting into trouble I use all 128.

          Well their full names are 128-bit. I just use the last 32 bits to store timestamps, demographic info and checksum bits.
