fn main() {
    // Create an ID generator using the default (Twitter) epoch

    // Generate a unique ID
    let id = cf.generate_id();

    // Futher processing...
}

const PROJECT_EPOCH: u64 = 1488432924251;
fn main() {
    let mut cf = IdGenerator::new(14)
        .with_epoch(PROJECT_EPOCH);

    let id = cf.generate_id();
    println!("ID: {id}"); // 1704967240656416804
