Having made my living writing C code for a very long time, I always found if (!d) *harder* to read, especially if it happened to be written if(!d) without the space, because it was never a single character name the ! disappeared into the noise. OTOH, = vs. == always stuck out like a sore thumb. Then again, I grew up with monochrome terminals vs. unusably slow syntax highlighting, and grayscale printers (and we had to live in a small shoebox in the middle of the road). YMMV. Obviously.
