A novice was attending a presentation by the newly-appointed master Zjing.

In a heartfelt oration about the sacred duties of the few people who could code or chose to, she asked everyone to do their best, not only at their work, at honing their craft, but also on working to make the world a better place.

“These topics are expected from a new master, but they feel as pointless as teenage’s chatter. We live remotely from the world high in our mountains. Small, lonely, fallible and mortal. How could one achieve that?” wondered the nun.

She resolved to see other masters for advice.
