The thing I finally realized after being big on parallel algorithms and such since first learning about them in university is that, honestly, most things don't need to be cleverly parallel.

The majority of tasks are "embarrassingly parallel" as they say. Which is just to mean, there are a lot of standalone tasks that need to be done. For example, any web server is embarrassingly parallel. You don't need to be clever, you just need to have the processing power available to handle them.
