I've read Europa has more water than Earth. Is the idea that it accumulated its water through an entirely different means? Or that it formed with its water, and didn't lose it during the initial coalescence, like the Earth did?

This is one of those areas where I don't know enough to oppose the scientists that are experts in this domain, and so I know I should accept the general consensus... but there's still a niggling doubt in my mind because it just doesn't feel right.


"make unexpected choices that feel genuinely designed for the context."

What is it supposed to do when fed instructions like this?


I think it's very clear what it's supposed to do from that text. Just read it at face value.

Whether it does anything useful or not is another matter. I don't think Anthropic or anyone else is doing evals on these skills, and for something subjective like design that would be especially hard anyway.

In other words, does this skill actually change the designs you get out in a positive way, consistently? Who knows? But it's certainly good marketing for Anthropic that whenever agentic web design gets brought up, someone will definitely mention this skill and confidently claim that they get better results by using it, without anything except social proof to back that up.


Recommendations aren't requirements; you're allowed to violate them.

Of course

Minecraft uses several. Different cameras, the console, etc.

I'm not sure Apple will provide it or not, but I don't see a future that doesn't have nearly ubiquitous smart glasses. The potential usefulness is too great.

Obviously it'll be a big cultural conflict for a while. But again... the usefulness is too great for it not to happen. Cultural objections will give way, I think. Maybe it'll have to wait for a generation to die off.


I hate that too, of course, but as long as it doesn't creep into the actual product or website itself, it doesn't really matter.

At least they aren't using five digit years...


And after looking at the site more, I have to say I'm pretty interested. It is a nice-feeling site. There's a few UI oddities that need to have the rough edges sanded off, but I very much like the main approach.

This may be a stupid question... do cities need to pay state property tax on properties they own?

It always gets me how the exact proper amount of an ingredient seems to coincidentally round off to an even number of units. You don't often see something that requires 2.07 cups, or 71 grams.

If measurements are rounded off for convenience, a few percentage difference won't be noticeable. People would be better off acquiring a feel for how liquid a batter should be, or how seasonings smell when they're toasted the right amount, etc.


I think Teams should be renamed Scout Messaging, and Outlook to Scout Messaging: Legacy.

You should save face by editing in a '/sarcasm' as soon as possible.

I was not, and I am not, because it obviously is.

- 'Panzer', of course, is a famous Nazi tank model

- 'Schrek' is from _schrecklish_, terrifying (sp?) in German

- The typeface, Fraktur, has a specific meaning in the National Socialist design language, which is, by about a century, the last time it was regularly used (IIRC.)

So, you tell me. In an Internet awash with encoded symbols, what are these ones telling you?

Use your eyes, your noggin, and your German history texts.


To nitpick:

> 'Panzer', of course, is a famous Nazi tank model

Panzer is German for tank, or armor. It‘s not referring to any model specifically, I don’t think, but I‘m not a historian.

Panzerschreck (spelled correctly) is something like „tank scare“.

But indeed, that GitHub page gives off the wrong vibes. Using this project will be tough, at least in Germany and Austria, lest you want to be suspected of Wiederbetätigung.


Thank you. It's been several decades since I studied.
