The Codeless Code: Case 179 Walking the Path
======
Master Bawan was assisting the Elephant's Footprint Clan in
creating a database service for the temple’s audit logs.
“We shall need at least three weeks to determine which NoSQL
database engine would be best for this task,” said Bawan to
the abbot of that clan.
“No need,” said the abbot. “The Temple of the Burning Pool
has recently chosen a NoSQL engine for their own purposes.
Follow the path they have taken. We shall save much time.”
The master flung his bowl hard at the abbot’s head. The
abbot ducked, and the bowl sailed harmlessly out the tower
window.
“See what your infamous temper has cost you, little master!”
laughed the abbot. “Now you have lost your bowl, and it is
nearly time to line up for supper!”
In one swift motion, Bawan flung the abbot out the window.
Then he turned to the pair of astonished novices still in
the room.
“The abbot is following the path my bowl has taken,”
explained the master. “Come; perhaps he will save us a place
in line.”
