I noticed that both this and pcwalton's CPU emulation simply perform the operation, and increment the cycle count.

I'm curious: are the cycle-accurate reads and writes (and false reads and writes -- see https://github.com/zellyn/a2audit/issues/5) not necessary for NES emulation?

I've never emulated a NES, only an Apple II. The cycle-accurate reads and writes are only mostly unnecessary, but they can make a difference, as the discussion in that linked issue shows.

The beaches should be accessible by public. Nothing controversial about that.

Question...will you be able to replay/backfill as you add new integrations? For example, Klaviyo is a huge hole in your integrations right now especially for marketing and ecomm. If I install Autotrack now, set up a few events and then a month from now you add Klaviyo, I can just replay everything into Klaviyo?

Also FWIW, I was an early user at Segment (was in their seed deck as case study), Klaviyo, and many others. I'm a technical marketer so can be helpful as beta tester and user research. reach out directly if you'd like to connect michael@futuremood.com
> as Khosla mentioned the beach is unprofitable to run, should CA be footing that bill? Could they sublease the property to an entrepreneur that thinks they could make the beachside facilities profitable? It is entirely unreasonable (even given the excessive wealth of Khosla) for him to be forced to maintain an unprofitable entity like that and all the facility liability that goes along with it.

Does he need to maintain those facilities? Could he just unblock access and move on? This feels like a cheap excuse.
Add to the list of your suspect observations those of Steele and his dossier. He was hired by Republicans before he was hired by Democrats. And his dossier was largely accurate—surprisingly so given that the target was (at the time) a wealthy, media-savvy businessman and television celebrity.

The dossier was oppo research. There’s literally nothing controversial about any of it, other than it was leaked and its target successfully spun the few disputed claims into evidence of mass political conspiracy.
The problem is the idea of an “annual” review itself, such as:

- arbitrary annual review times almost never coincide with the most useful times to summarize contributions (e.g. try handing out bonuses the day after a big project ends, not months later)

- similarly, arbitrary review times disadvantage new employees; you essentially “waste” a few months on tasks that won’t end up counting this year (“not enough contributions yet”) and that won’t count next year either! (oh those tasks were from last review cycle so...)

- most systems I’ve seen will force you to summarize your worth in just a few broad strokes, and so much valuable work falls through the cracks in such systems
This is pretty interesting: https://documents.coastal.ca.gov/assets/access/pr-access-fac...

The public can do whatever it wants on the beach itself. The argument is about whether the road to the beach is implicitly public property because of prior use.

For what it’s worth, I’ve used Clickhouse and Snowflake and I strongly prefer Clickhouse.

Performance was superior, client libraries and built-in HTTP interface was a god-send, it supported geospatial queries. I had perpetual issues with getting Snowflake to properly escape strings in CSV, handle JSON in anything approaching a sensible way, there’s claims that it integrates properly with Kafka as a consumer, but it most certainly does not. The UX is horrible to boot.

AM radio stations in the US are from 530Khz to 1700Khz, so possible. If so, then calling them “extremely low frequency” is a bit of a misnomer, as that band is called “medium frequency” or MF for short. The actual ELF band is 3-30hz, 4+ orders of magnitude lower frequency, and is mostly only used for submarine communication as most higher frequency signals are filtered by water.
Good feedback, thanks! It's tricky because we really don't integrate with anything except building access. And we aspire not to.
From the point of view of financial reporting (i.e. accounting income that you see on the financial statements), holding the liability indefinitely is not a good thing as it negatively affects the leverage ratios and implies a future obligation. The new accounting requirement that allows companies to estimate the so called 'breakage' (i.e. anticipated unused balanced) and recognize that as income over time rather than keep it as an indefinitely liability.

Legally, there's also the concept of escheatment, which depends on the country/state that tells a company what to do with the unused balance. In some cases, the government may claim this balance.

To your question about paying income tax on income, most tax codes would require the companies to pay tax on the amounts when they receive the cash rather than when they satisfy the obligations. So it's likely that they've already paid tax on this amount.
> However, there is quite a bit of duplication in the individual European armies that make a straight comparison misleading.

The difference is big enough. If we talk GDP, Europe is > ~13 times Russia. And don't forget, the size of their troops were x 5 during the USSR. Guess how much that helped.

> Lastly, the costs - as Khosla mentioned the beach is unprofitable to run

It's a beach. Why does it have to be profitable?

> should CA be footing that bill?

You mean for cleanup and maintenance?

Sure, why not? If Californians what their beaches, then their tax dollars should be taking care of them.
I admit that the DD was not a good example for two reasons:

One, there are very aggressive negative consequences --this has an impact on some people.

Two, we have a better chance of changing behavior if we do it in a coordinated manner with good methods when we start young. So, I may be a bit too pessimistic since I think we can make a difference if we start young but with good persistence practices. Given we indoctrinate kids against this since middle school, I think it's made a difference.
Curious signaling as a VC to be involved in something so negatively publicly. The best companies/ entrepreneurs are super picky on who to raise money from and I have already heard a couple companies mention this as a reason they didn't talk to Khosla.
The 737MAX was still safer than air travel in the 1970s. Boeing definitely screwed up, but it's a mistake to overstate how dangerous it really is. It's still far safer than driving. Air safety has advanced to a point where we're capable of having almost zero fatal accidents, which IMO leads us to overemphasize each one that still happens.

Ultimately, the airlines wanted a common TC and type rating for very good reasons -- it saves money, i.e. human effort in pilot training, the number of pilots that need to be on reserve, maintenance training and staffing, spare parts inventory, etc. These are all laudable goals, and to simply say that Boeing should have designed a new plane is too simplistic. The real problem IMO was the contracts Boeing signed with very high penalties for delivering late or having any additional training whatsoever.

This didn't give the engineers enough flexibility or time to design a safe augmentation system, especially after the discovery during test flights that the pitch instability was worse than expected. That led to a quick patch-up job that totally compromised the redundancy of MCAS.

It's also clear in hindsight that the FAA handed too much authority to Boeing on the certification side, and that they should have been scrutinizing their safety analyses more. That is clearly happening now, to Boeing's consternation.
One might agree with you if one hadn't actually been to Martin's Beach [recently]. There are no facilities. There used to be a beachfront snack shack but it's been closed since the property traded hands. There is no public restroom, and there is only private parking. There are no piers, jetties or other beach/ocean construction at the beach. Moreover, the road leading to the beach is lined with a dozen or so private residences. Khosla is not bearing any significant burden in allowing beachgoers to continue to access the beach.

TBH, the beach is small enough and there is so little capacity for traffic to it that I don't see how it could ever be "profitable" as a cash generator for anyone.

> And yes retroactively - "You bind on earth" is present tense, "will be bound in heaven" is future tense

Yes, and it refers not to changing what God wanted in the past (which would be retroactive, but isn't what a present tense action having future tense effects would indicate; it's not “whatever you bind on Earth will have been bound in Heaven”, which would plausibly describe a retroactive effect, or alternatively or pre-ordained one) but the future consequences of sin. Again, the quote you point to is the basis for doctrine about absolution of sin in confession, not the ecclesiastical infallibility either in general or in the specific form of papal infallibility, which are not closely related doctrines.
From the last section of the Fifth Amendment:

nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
well A makes sense if you believe in private property at all. I can see not being on his side but its true if it was not public but private property before the only way the government should legally allowed to appropriate it is via eminate domain and the compensation to the property owner.
> SemVer gives extremely useful information here to establish how "dangerous" and update might be.

I'm doubtful about how useful the information SemVer gives really is. Someone can make massive changes to a package, rewrite half of it from scratch, add huge new features, completely redesign how parts of it are implemented, but if they don't making any breaking API changes the first version segment doesn't increment. On the other hand, someone removes some obscure feature which nobody ever used anyway, and that causes the first version segment to increment. The administrator should be much more worried about the first change than the second, but SemVer misleads them into being more worried about the second than the first.

Edit: For context, his argument is basically: "If independent learning is not your forte then that's a much larger problem, because you will need to do significant independent study regardless of the bootcamp."

It's not a great argument. Yes, being able to learn/research independently is an important skill that everyone should have, but it's a spectrum. Teaching yourself programming in six months through self-study alone is VERY FAR along on that spectrum. I would bet there are far more people who can get a job with the structure/forced deadlines/etc. of a bootcamp + a heavy amount of self-study to improve their skills, than there are who can do the entire thing themselves.

Also, self study is far from the most efficient way to learn most things. Having someone to help unblock you when you have a bug you can't figure out, or when there's a concept you're not quite grasping can make a huge difference in your overall rate of learning.
Based on CA’s constitution beaches (low to high tides) are public property.

If you land lock a beach, in practice (like in the example above) there is an access route used by public which you are NOT entitled to close.
Yeah, though part of due dill from founders side should reveal this - you ask past portfolio co's what kind of terms the firm leans to + their preferred process, and if their process is playing stupid partner games with stupid terms, you price that in to your negotiations. And yes, it's annoying + common, esp. the bigger and more diverse you go... . In theory you can add stuff like breakup and late fees: that's unusual in startup fundings, but the weird softbank-isms may make that kind of term more aligned.

I now treat VC as a funny form of enterprise sales, and this happens there too. Want a 6/7/8 figure deal? Same thing: has the group bought stuff at that level before, if so, what is the process? And, the more critical the deal, the more imp. you talk to folks who also recently ran the gauntlet.
> Can't you also plausibly in a similar spirit argue for the point that the regulations about retraining pilots were responsible for the 737 MAX disaster?

I don't think that's a great argument, pilots needing to be trained/certified for a significantly different plane is a pretty sane regulation. Would you feel comfortable flying in a plane that the pilot was never trained on?

Also, I would argue that the ultimate cause of this disaster is that the Pilots were not adequately trained on how the MCAS system works. This only further supports this kind of regulation being important.

> Let me rephrase that -- is there a more moral action they could take?

This depends on your basic values, but one could definitely argue that doing nothing is morally superior to abusing the voting system. Only sometimes do two wrongs make a right, and I'm not convinced this is one of those times.
Seemingly (IANAL) he could, in fact, do that. I think his concern would be if he's not properly maintaining it, now the beach near his house is going to fill up with trash, maybe overnight campers, etc. So he's either got to foot the bill to keep it looking nice, or end up with a garbage beach.

So it's definitely a sticky situation. Personally, I'd just open it up, I think people generally treat beaches OK in Cali, but I can imagine his concern.

As another commenter mentions, it seems like a very reasonable expectation that the state would maintain it.

You can make a long walk to the beach from Rt1 if you park roadside at the top. If you don't want to do that, you can pay $10-20 for private parking in a small lot about halfway down to the beach. The parking lot only holds perhaps 15-20 vehicles, so capacity at the beach is already tightly constrained.

"the Buffett indicator reflects Warren Buffett’s characteristically simple thinking about stock values. It’s the total stock market capitalization of the United States relative to U.S. GDP."

If a company goes public or is taken private, or if a company issues debt to buy back stock, that changes stock market cap but not GDP. Furthermore, the market cap to GDP measure ignores how profitable companies are. I don't think the Buffett indicator is a good measure.

The property rights are what they are. Who the owner is should not cloud the argument. If you are a middle class person and have a lawn in front of your house, would you allow the random people to use the lawn for chilling/sleeping/picnic or whatever? Well a rich person happens to own a much bigger and luxurious version of the same front lawn. If the state or whoever owned the thing once upon time sold it, then it is his. The fact that he is stinking rich and we the normal populace would love to have access to the same property is no argument.
On the other hand if his purchase did not include exclusivity to the beach then by all means go there and piss around. But just being rich and owning something that most of us can not afford is no justification to snatch it from them. It is just using the justice system/democracy as a mob intent on plunder.

P.S. 1. I don't care who khosla is. But looking at the whole debate it seems the whole opposition is based on the fact that he is a billionaire. I refuse to buy that line of argument. Tell me it is illegal for so an so reason and I will buy. But he is an asshole or he is a billionaire is just emotions doing the talking :-)

P.S. 2. Going by the comments below, I feel compelled to clarify that my comment is not informed by the local laws. I am just a little bit puzzled by the words billionaire and asshole being used synonymously. The law should be same for everyone. A billionaire can hire more lawyers is no reason to call him an asshole in this context even if he has earned the title elsewhere unequivocally.

Update: typo and added a p.s.
That's very reasonable. Sounds like it's time to pass a law in CA that requires property owners to have an easement offered to the public for beach access.

Have such an easement recorded for all real estate parcels touching the coast. Done.

I know they have that 1976 law mentioned in the article, but clearly that was not strongly written so as to force this.
