The Prompt
Explain how [TECHNOLOGY/CONCEPT] works. Explain it in three layers: Layer 1 — Simple (for someone non-technical): Use an everyday analogy. No jargon. One paragraph. Layer 2 — Intermediate (for someone with basic technical knowledge): Explain the actual mechanism. What is happening under the hood? Key components and how they interact. Layer 3 — Technical depth (for someone who wants to really understand it): How does it actually work at a lower level? What are the interesting engineering trade-offs or design choices? What do most explanations gloss over? Also include: - The most common misconception about this technology - A real-world example of it in action that most people use without realising - Where to go to learn more if I want to go deeper
