A medium sized project. Ternary operator used anywhere, even in the graphic library toolkit. Multiple swearing on my part.
That's it.
If I will ever find a way to erase ternary operators from existance, I will do it. Possibly along with all the people who use it indiscriminately.

With Mike Mullikin celebrating 55 years on this earth it has made me think about my lifetime and particularly the technical innovations I have seen and experienced. I have a few years on Mike so I go back a little further. For example I can remember Sputnik in 1957 and TV beginning in my home city of Perth in 1959. I saw a microwave oven in about 1966 (Philips). The first computer I encountered was an IBM 1620 and I ran a Basic program on it in 1968. This sat in a room next to a huge Cyber. Of course I watched the moon landing live in 1969. Hand held calculators arrived and I reveled in my HP-25. As a post-grad student I fired a Q switched dye laser to burn a hole in a razor blade late one night. About the same time optical fibre communications commenced. I built a Z-80 based micro from a kit in about 1981. The IBM PC came and with it with PC software (database, spreadsheet etc). Then came BBS and acoustic modems. The internet, cds, ink jet printers, flat screen displays, digital cameras, cnc machines, gps, wifi, cellphones and many other things have followed.
When I think about all these innovations my personal choice as the most amazing in my lifetime is the global positioning system (gps) which relies on many of the above technologies as well as Einstein. Fibre optics a close second. What do others think? I am especially curious about which recent innovations have grabbed people.

The most important innovation ever, was probably the Smallpox vaccine from Edward Jenner,. but aas that as 1796 it probably doesn't count...
In my lifetime? The integrated circuit which was patented 18 days before I was born (but 8 1/2 months after I was conceived, so I'm counting it) Without that, almost nothing in our modern lives would be the same ... cars, planes, mobiles, computers, medicine, electric power supplies, logistics; everything relies on them to work, or to be designed and / or built.

The IC is an interesting one. I can remember a guy coming to where I was working during my holidays in the late 60's to use one of our microscopes. What was he looking at? An IC. Where did it come from? He made it in his lab at the local hospital. I'm not sure the real significance of it was recognised by any of us.

If you are going back in time, then Agriculture would trump the smallpox vaccine and just about everything else except Fire.... and those are in a photo finish, depending on whether you like the veggies or the chargrilled steak better...
"new" isn't better, just different

Many, including Jared Diamond (author of "Guns, Germs, and Steel"), think that agriculture was the worst thing that ever happened to humankind.
The increase in carbs (wheat, rice, etc.) has really done a number on us.
From another perspective, it introduced "profit" which freed up people to innovate and develop other skills.
My jury is still out.
Cheers,

Glad I could be of service... 
As for technical innovations... that's a tough one because so many of them kind of flow from one another.
Space flight... communication satellites... weather satellites... personal computers... internet... cell phones...
But it hasn't all been flowers and kittens. We also get Facebook, Twitter and the Kardashians coming along for the ride.
