It's basically a small Army base adjacent to most of the beach so that's why you can't park there. There's some public parking at the public access area at the south end. If you owned a house that was up against a private beach, I doubt you'd let people park in your driveway or cut through your yard to access it.

There's a concept in common law called the public trust doctrine[1] that we inherited from our British legal lineage that many states incorporate into their handling of beaches.
For example, some states hold all beaches in public trusts, and everyone has the right to use them. There being no such thing as "private beaches", although riparian rights can be rented, also means that the public has a right to access those beaches even if private property blocks access.
In those cases, the public has both perpendicular and lateral beach access rights, the former meaning you can legally cut across private property to access beaches, the latter meaning that you can walk up and down beaches to access other beaches.
That's to say your feelings about people crossing private property don't really matter when it comes legal beach access, Hawaii holds all waters and beaches in public trusts via public trust doctrine that courts have held up for literally centuries.
States are allowed to interpret public trust doctrine independently and as a result, apply it differently between states.
I'm not aware of any states that have private beaches, but states have different interpretations of, for example, how much dry sand can be accessed by the public if dry sand can be accessed at all.
Were used to it in Malibu. The publicly owned shoreline can be reached through the legally mandated passageways, if you can make it through the locked gates and avoid being seen by security.
It's the same in ... well at least some of the continental states. Georgia for sure has mandated public access (mostly) and the beaches cannot be privately owned, specifically up to the high watermark. We used to use this to swim over and surf on Sea Island ... much to the chagrin of their rent-a-cops!
I've had this same thought that it would be nice to have an AI rubber ducky to bounce ideas off of while pair programming (so that you don't sound dumb to your coworkers & waste their time).
This is my first comment so I'm not sure how to do this but I made a BYO-API key VSCode extension that uses the OpenAI realtime API so you can have interactive voice conversations with a rubber ducky. I've been meaning to create a Show HN post about it but your comment got me excited!
In the future I want to build features to help people communicate their bugs / what strategies they've tried to fix them. If I can pull it off it would be cool if the AI ducky had a cursor that it could point and navigate to stuff as well.

I humbly suggest a more immediate concern to rectify is identifying how to improve the work environment such that the fear one might "sound dumb to your coworkers & waste their time" does not exist.
Its as if the rubber duck was actually on the desk while youre programming and if we have an MCP that can get live access to code it could give you realtime advice.
Wow, that's really cool thanks for open sourcing! I might dig into your MCP I've been meaning to learn how to do that.
I genuinely think this could be great for toys that kids grow up with i.e. the toy could adjust the way it talks depending on the kids age and remember key moments in their life - could be pretty magical for a kid
There's something poetically sad about this.
