Code License

If you're building end-user applications with Swift, I want you to take everything you've learned from Hacking with Swift and apply that as much as you can. So, the license for my code is as permissive as I can possibly make it, with the exception that I don't allow using it in artificial intelligence / machine learning training.

The full license is below:
