    In the last past weeks, I have done something I had been meaning to do for a while but always pushed back at the bottom of my TODO pile: prepare for my death.

    I am still quite young and perfectly healthy (mentally and physically) and I do plan to live a long and full life, but death is something that comes from us all and can strike anytime. Having witnessed friends and colleagues who lost loved ones who did not prepare adequately for their passing, dealing with all this legal stuff ahead of time seems like the best gift you can leave them.

    Writing my will was the easiest part of this "preparation for death" process. I have few material possessions and I'm leaving everything to my SO. As for the copyright for my code, I have decided everything I wrote will be licensed under CC0 (public domain) when I die. Quebec — where I live — also accepts holograph wills, which means I didn't have to hire a notary.
