Inspired to a recent episode
The apprentice went to Zen Master and cried: "My program does not work! I read and re-read my source code, I tried to use debugger, I added a lot of debugging messages!"
The Zen Master spoke softly: "Observer disturbs phenomenon".
Then, he turned off the monitor, run the apprentice's program and turned on the monitor. The result was correct.
The apprentice gained enlightenment.
