• 24-Aug-2014: Spent a chunk of the day writing comments about the simulator running/pausing state machine, about evenly divided between documenting the existing and new design. Threaded code is just so deadly; an ice-nine drop of asynchronous parallelism in a serial deterministic world. The new state machine seems like it should be overkill but I'm not convinced!
