- Pick one of the above koans and address the following questions:
- Share your answers with me at stark.brooklinehighschool@gmail.com. Then post to your blog with the Title: Chapter One Answers
- Argue if you agree that it is a “truth” and if it will always be a “truth.”
- How does this koan intersect with your life as a student?
I agree with koan #4, processing is power. I think that processing will most always be power, as long as we are using computers. Companies are always racing to build the fastest processors, and whoever has the fastest processor has the advantage. Having faster databases, search speed, and so on, will give you a large advantage and cut down the time it takes to do some tasks. A company with modern computers will have a huge advantage over companies that still use fax machines and windows xp.
This koan intersects my life on a daily basis. All the time, my devices slowly become obsolete because of the increase in processor power. Old Ipads that were blazing fast in their time are now painfully slow. Same goes to computers, which have perceivably slowed down over the years. Maybe it’s because of software and use, but modern computers are perceivably faster than the older ones.
