I don't think this does what you mean: even if you cast to USHORT, the 
operand gets implicitly promoted to int when you pass it to operator ~, 
so the result of that expression is 0xffffffff, not 0xffff, which I 
guess is what you meant.

See for example https://godbolt.org/z/azzejdWM6.

I would suggest to just write 0xffff, or USHRT_MAX.

Thanks, Giovanni.
