<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@jrdepriest" class="u-url mention">@<span>jrdepriest</span></a></span> I know in extreme, excruciating detail exactly what I feel guilty about. the reason I&#39;m asking is to sample solutions others have in order to position mine among the society at large (or at least the slice that responds to me). so far I see mostly even deeper dysfunction...</p>

<p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> It&#39;s C++ so I don&#39;t know if this makes an anonymous class or hacks the planet.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> Anonymous structs and enums exist too. The latter are actually occasionally useful for state machines where you don&#39;t use the type anywhere else.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> Oh nice, I guess that should have been obvious as it is regularly used this way with `struct`. But I never thought of it, could be useful in some cases!</p>
