A Million Objects

From a Zen Kōan:

Gyosan asked Isan, “If a million objects come to you, what should you do?” Isan answered, “A green object is not yellow. A long object is not short. Each object manages its own fate. Why should I interfere with them?” Gyosan bowed in homage.

It’s good advice for programming multi-core, too.
