/**
 A 12-byte (probably) unique object identifier.

 ObjectIds are similar to a GUID or a UUID, and can be used to uniquely identify
 objects without a centralized ID generator. An ObjectID consists of:

 1. A 4 byte timestamp measuring the creation time of the ObjectId in seconds
    since the Unix epoch.
 2. A 5 byte random value
 3. A 3 byte counter, initialized to a random value.

 ObjectIds are intended to be fast to generate. Sorting by an ObjectId field
 will typically result in the objects being sorted in creation order.
