I can't say I would appreciate having to write
uint a = 0xFFFFFFFF;
or the equivalent for ulong.
uint a = ~0u;
even ~0 works, no need for the u (although it makes things clearer).
Ellery, you didn't read my original post thoroughly, I said this was the
most common case of wanting to use unary negative on an unsigned value,
and it's easily rewritten, with the same number of characters no less.
