Background: this is motivated by compile-time 32-bit type ID extraction for template types. Here's the best I have so far (relies on GCC __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ macro also supported in clang):

template<typename T>
consteval uint32_t get_type_id()
{
const char* type_name = __PRETTY_FUNCTION__;
return murmur3_32(type_name);
}

Then I use this function to initialize a constinit static member for the template type ID.

@hendric In (high quality) production lines, QA failures don't result in just throwing out the sample that fails to meet the standards, but are part of a feedback cycle that can start by stopping production. From that point of view, tests are a signal that the development process let through more (or maybe not) issues than desired; iterate on the process, not directly on the code itself. The latter overfits on the test set.

Same difference as updating decisions VS the decision making process after observing an outcome.

Oh my goodness I've just learned a thing about The Matrix that causes it to make a lot more sense: In the original script the humans were used as neural network compute clusters by the Machines and as a crucial component of The Matrix itself.

Which is why humans who were aware of the simulation could control aspects of The Matrix - their minds were part of its foundation.

Unfortunately the test audiences had trouble understanding this concept so the studio changed the human role to "batteries".

@glaebhoerl This is beautifwl:
"For most of its being, mankind did not know what things are made of, but could only guess. With the growth of worldken, we began to learn, and today we have a beholding of stuff and work that watching bears out, both in the workstead and in daily life."
