Moving to ISC

I hereby announce that all of the code I produce from now on will use the ISC license. Previously I've used the MIT license and the GNU GPL, or LGPL where applicable.

The reason for changing this is two-fold. First, I like to be able to reuse much of what I do in proprietary settings. Yes, I'm one of those people who look upon the world with "grey" eyes rather than black & white. Second, the ISC license is a lot more clear on the wording but is still GPL compatible.

Swedish National Day: Deep thoughts...

From time to time, even though it seems to occur more frequently these days, I think about the persistence of things. How development is continuously accelerating in the modern world. To me this is like a double edged sword, it's both comforting and unsettling. Comforting that we as humans continuously improve and develop our methods and technologies. Unsettling because I know much of the development is in directions that I don't approve of: more intricate and capable weapons and methods of surveillance. Yet somehow we manage to survive and thrive in our lives.
