Can I ask a dumb question: If a UUID is “practically impossible” to duplicate, why do we still check for duplicates?

Someone on GitHub released a free WhatsApp API you can run on your own server. No paying Meta per conversation. It's called OpenWA. 12.8K stars. What you get: REST API to send and receive messages Multiple WhatsApp sessions at once Webhooks and a web panel Plugs into n8n, Chatwoot and AI agents (MCP too) Clone the repo, run one Docker command, done. Why this matters: the official Business API costs add up fast once you're paying per conversation. For internal automations and side projects, self-hosting changes the math. Honest caveats: It's unofficial, so use a dedicated number Ban risk is real For client work, I'd still use the official API Don't put your main number on it. Rough RAM per session, from the replies: about 30-80MB with Baileys, 300-500MB with whatsapp-web.js. So it scales fine on a small box. MIT licensed, 100% free. Repo: github.com/rmyndharis/OpenWA

Remember when people said "prompt engineer" was going to be an entire career path?
