How would I go about having a `CoroutineScope` that automatically restarts jobs that have failed? Maybe with exponential backoff?

`supervisorScope` doesn't quite get me there, but is a good starting point

I don’t think a `CoroutineScope` can perform that kind of funtionality. `Job` isn’t restartable.

Hm. I'm trying to think how I would differentiate _which_ job has failed and react accordingly

using `CoroutineWorker` as part of workmanager, I want to start several `Flows` that listen from different TCP connections for data/events.

If one of those TCP connections loses connection, I'd like to be able to reconnect with exponential backoff.

differentiating which flow has failed is an interesting problem

is there some reason you can't have `Flow` do the retry? that's what it's designed for

There's also an example of a plain coroutine retry from roman elizarov:

@there's also a retry example for coroutines form

As noted in the comment, you can also inline it
