I constantly use both lambdas and structured bindings; without this feature, I am having to constantly redeclare every single not-a-variable I use in every lambda level and then maintain these lists every time I add (or remove, due to warnings I get) a usage. Here is one of my lambdas:
And like, at least there I am able to redeclare them in a "natural" way... I also tend to hide lambdas inside of macros to let me build new scope constructs, and if a structured binding happens to float across one of those boundaries I am just screwed and have to declare adapter references in the enclosing scope (which is the same number of name repetitions, but I can't reuse the original name and it uses more boilerplate).
It's kind of weird structured bindings where not captured with [=](){} before, actually. I'm still stuck at C++11 for most of my work so I cannot use structured bindings at all, but I would not have expected to have to write that kind of monstrosity in C++17
I work on a "streaming" probabilistic nanopayments system that is used for (initially) multihop VPN-like service from randomly selected providers; it is called Orchid.
I dunno... Brian Fox (the developer of bash) got involved, and he tapped me (someone he has worked with before) as a combination networking and security expert? FWIW, if you describe anything with the technical precision I just did, almost anything will sound "esoteric" ;P.
