This is cool: A user-defined string literal operator that turns string literals into their (compile-time) hash codes. Might be useful in some codebases to avoid having to maintain unique numerical values for a bunch of identifiers.
(But it might be that in large codebases, the time to run all these compile-time hash functions adds up to be unbearable.)
(I was specifically thinking of the "slot IDs" in
