// The Darwin docs say it best:
// A semaphore is much like a lock, except that a finite number of threads can hold it simultaneously.
// Semaphores can be thought of as being much like piles of tokens; multiple threads can take these tokens, 
// but when there are none left, a thread must wait until another thread returns one.
