blind spot card

The idea is to create a typology of the process by which a human being notices a blind spot and resolves it, so that when he/she is troubled, he/she can draw a card to solve the problem. This is a more abstract version of TRIZ, which was created by typifying physical patent documents.

We are aiming for a reasonable number of physical cards or pictured mugs in the end, but right now we are in the process of structuring it bottom-up (SEE Top-down and bottom-up) and are gradually structuring it by collecting examples where we have noticed blind spots or changed our perspective.

• Blind Card Candidate

• Blind spot card with no picture yet

• 2024-06-13

  • 45: Assumption that it is a circle

• 2024-05-13

  • 42: Even if the quantity doesn’t decrease, the percentage will.
  • 43: Two non-orthogonal axes
  • 44: Fill the lake with a glass of water.

• 2023-09-04

  • 40: Interaction Attributes
  • 41: Splitting up conflicts.

• 2023-07-28

  • 38: Assumption that the top is single
  • 39: barbell
    • I had written on 4/13 but didn’t make it a blind spot card.

• 2022-11-24

  • 37: There is not always one solution.

• 2022-05-25

  • 36: Only large stones emerge from the water.

  • The last update on 2021-10-22 was an attempt to make a tote bag.
    • In the process, A series of pictures of two people saying different things was created.
      • More and more have been added since then.
      • Whether to add a series of pictures of two people saying different things to the blind spot card?
      • I won’t add all of them, I wrote them on the candidate blind spot card.
  • I was trying to make a new addition to Blind Card Candidate this time and saw this page and added
    • The blind spot card candidate page is dull and uninteresting, not good.
      • It’s just a list of links.
      • What’s not good.
        • The link alone is not enough information.
          • Is that the same for other blind spot cards?
      • Why “candidate” in the first place?
        • Because I’m anxious to shake the sequential number ID.
        • But it’s unclear whether everything that’s been sequentially numbered in the past is “of a quality that’s up to par.” - (6.3.1.1) If you don’t know who your customers are, you don’t know what quality is - Once you have a clear idea of the specific purpose, such as “to make a tote bag,” you can then sift through the criteria for usefulness. - Sift through after the use is clear. - Undecided whether these blind spot cards will be randomly drawn cards as originally planned, or whether they will be readable, tote bags or mugs.
        • Then we can look at the candidates and add them if there’s no reason not to.
      • Why did you assign sequential numbers in the first place?
        • Because we weren’t using Scrapbox when this project started.
          • He felt the name of the card could change.
            • Referencing by name breaks the link when the name is changed.
            • So I tried to refer to it by number.
          • Tried to create a network structure of knowledge at a time when Scrapbox was not yet in use.
            • This is strongly reflected in the fact that the first blind spot card is Tree and Rhizome.
              • [Not a tree of knowledge, but a rhizome of knowledge
        • Can we use Scrapbox now?
          • In the process of translating the Engineer’s Guide to Intellectual Production into English, I assigned unique numbers to the headings.
            • Because there are different pages in different languages that point to the same thing
            • Blind spot cards don’t create value only in Japan either, so there’s a chance they’ll be translated into English in the future.
            • Let’s keep the numbers.
      • Look at the candidates and add them if there is no reason not to “Then let’s process them in order from the top of the candidate blind spot cards,” I thought and looked at the first one, and it said, “This should be split into several.
        • It’s a tasteless list, I didn’t notice.
        • I’ve split it up and painted a picture, I’ll give you some time to make an adoption decision.
    • I’m still having trouble rereading “Blind Spot Cards Without Pictures.”
      • I thought it was “the manuscript of the blind spot card that had no picture at the time it was transcribed to Scrapbox,” to be exact.
  • 31: Both “is X” and “is not X” are compatible.
  • 32: familial resemblance
  • 33: Two non-orthogonal axes
  • 34: There are multiple ways to compromise.
  • 35: Move the good stuff.

• 2021-10-22

  • 23 A set, not an element
  • 24 Axis, not set
  • Cards that have been treated as blind cards for some time OR that were on the list of candidates but not numbered.
    • 25: There is more than one conflict.
    • 26: The bias of easy drawing
    • 27: The fastest course is not the fastest
    • 28: Not one way, but both ways.
    • Considerations:.
      • Even if you write “[blind spot card] candidate” on the side of the individual page, the link here is too big to be buried.
      • The trigger for consideration isn’t pulled when you think, “I’ll consider it later before I put it in.”
        • Blind Card Candidate
  • 29: Observation coverage issues
  • 30: False dichotomy

  • It’s been a while since I looked at this one and said, “Where are the 1’s and 2’s?” I’m like, “Where are 1 and 2?
  • src
    • 1 Tree and Rhizome
    • 2 Top-down and bottom-up
  • I wonder if there should be a page called “List of Blind Spot Cards.”
    • 2022-02-16 I think this page is it.
      • And it appears with a picture on the Related Pages section below.
      • A listing page with just a list of lists is dull and uninteresting page.
