I still don't understand why programmers seemed to get off on this sort of shit. Doing `while((dest++ = src++));` is great and all (maybe fine because it's kinda idiomatic now, but should you really be using that over `strncpy`?), but being clever like that in real code makes it harder to review, and harder to understand months down the line. I've mentally cussed out 'whoever wrote this confusing shit' to only `git blame` myself.
