How much you play is my favorite measure of success in this industry. You stop looking up to tech execs (who look miserable) or hyper-growth founders (stressed) and start looking up to independent creative minds who shape a space that allows them to play.

[Tillery; find me elsewhere, only here sporadically @AreTillery]

I just learned that in C++ (but not C) the ternary operator can be used as an lvalue, so this is a valid expression that sets either a or b 2 to depending on if a is 0:

((0 == a) ? a : b) = 2;

I'm upset now.
