Sharing resources in multithreaded closures

It's time to look at parallelism at a lower level, without any crates to help us. We will now check out how to share a resource across threads so that they all can work with the same object. This recipe will also serve as a refresher on manually creating threads, in case it's been a while since you learned about it.
