The companyWhat this page does and does not say
AQ Capital d.o.o. is registered at V Murglah 263 in Ljubljana.
Jure Drobnak answers for it. That much is on the public record, and so is everything else set out below.
A page carrying the word capital invites a certain sort of claim, so it is worth being plain about what this one withholds. Nothing here describes an investment, promises a return, offers anything for sale, or states what the company may or may not be authorised to do for anybody. Those are matters for the register, for a licence if one exists, and for a conversation — not for a paragraph on a website that nobody has checked.
What a page can carry honestly is a register entry, an address that reaches a person, one piece of arithmetic worked through to the end, and a note of the single application the company publishes. Those are the four rows that follow.

One measurable thingTwo small rules, and what they cost
Two rules that sound like nothing between them throw away nineteen grids in twenty.
Take a square of cells and let each one be sea or land as it pleases. Now add two conditions that a reasonable person would call minor: the sea has to be a single connected body, and it may never form a solid two-by-two pool. Neither rule mentions a number, a count or a target. Between them they discard almost everything.
Turn the rules on and count what survives
Every grid of every size below is examined one by one, not sampled. Switch a rule off and the page counts again.
| Grid | Cells | All arrangements | Surviving | Share |
|---|
On a four-by-four grid both rules together leave 3 755 of the 65 536 arrangements — 5.73 per cent. Spread across the sixteen cells that is a cut of about 16.4 per cent each, which is the whole trick: a small loss, compounded sixteen times, takes nineteen grids in twenty.
The counting is exhaustive. For each grid size the page walks every arrangement of sea and land in turn — sixteen of them at two cells a side, five hundred and twelve at three, sixty-five thousand five hundred and thirty-six at four — tests the two rules against each, and tallies. A sea of no cells at all is not counted as connected. The same walk was run separately before publication and produced the same four numbers: 12, 139 and 3 755 for the two rules together, and 42 176 for the pool rule alone at four cells a side. The per-cell figure is the surviving count taken to the power of one over the number of cells. Absent by design: there are no numbered cells here, no islands to size, no puzzle and no solution. This counts what two rules permit before anybody writes a single clue; finding the one arrangement a set of clues demands is a different pleasure and it is not offered at this address.

A puzzle about islands, and nothing else.
Otok — Slovenian for island — is a logic puzzle built on exactly the two rules counted in row 02, with numbered cells added on top. It opens no connection, keeps no account and sells nothing inside itself.
