Please add licencing information!
Hi there
Because I use FOSSA (free version only) to maintain licence compatibility compliance throughout my code, I'd like to know under which licence your tidbits code is currently being licensed under.
Note that "open source" (i.e., having a public, accessible, readable-by-all) does not imply "distributed under an open source licence"! For all purposes, even if you are showing your code to everybody else in the world (it's your code, so you can do whatever you wish with it), it doesn't mean that you have relinquished all your copyright claims upon it — it's the precise contrary, a work released publicly without an explicit licence saying otherwise, is automatically fully copyrighted "All rights reserved" by its author!
The best example: think of a statue in a public garden. Everybody can see it, and touch it, even take a picture of it. But in spite of all that, you're not allowed to take a cast of the statue, and start doing copies — even if it's only for yourself — or change it (e.g., chipping the nose off, or painting it). That remains the sculptor's prerogative: they're the only ones allowed to modify the sculpture and make copies of it.
The same applies to your code. Unless you clearly state otherwise (i.e., by including a licence that grants some of your rights to a public audience), everybody can read your code, but nobody can copy it, use it, or modify it.
I know that this is a boring chore, but that's lawyers for you.
