Wyldcard creator here, thanks to HowToWare for the interview. Since the intention is a children's toy, I'm trying to get the price as low as possible. This display size is cheap because it's intended for grocery store price t

Wyldcard creator here, thanks to HowToWare for the interview. It's a link cable to connect your base to your friend's when you play against them. I link it into itself just to keep it tidy and it doubles as a strap to carry it by.

Hi, Wyldcard creator here, thanks to HowToWare for the interview :) The cards can store data, and I imagine that things which happen to the card during a game leave a lasting impact, which is carried from game to game. The cards grow and ch

I agree. And I think the key to this is VR. Another comment in this thread is about how hard graphs are to visualize, but a 3D interface gives you a lot more room. When VR hype began I thought "well what's the excel of VR?".

There's another important element: the ability to judge quality. Many people (especially baby boomers) learned a shortcut, by using brand name as a proxy for quality of goods. The problem with this is that all those brands eventually o

I agree. I feel like the author is upset at pens given out at banks and restaurants to sign stuff. As cheap as possible, Minimum Viable Pen for sure. I buy a few packs of my favorite uniball pens every year and sprinkle them around the hous

one thing about some of the shitty products out there today is we got MUCH better at making things out of less material. So they break easier and wear out faster, but we've been able to reduce material usage along with price. If you&#x

the Miele vacuums are incredible. If you want appliances that last, buy the commercial ones. Hobart makes an under counter dishwasher that you can bet will never wear out and can be repaired. Shell out for an industrial washing machine like

I listened to a bunch of Car Talk episodes from the 80s and early 90s and holy cow, those cars were all breaking down constantly!

Ok no. First of all: survivorship bias. All of the old appliances that still work are only the ones which still work. This goes for the author's juicer. Second: things which have investment attention now are excellent quality and thing

Oh, you can buy as many cards as you want. Figuring out how to make a good game without too many cards is definitely a constraint. At $15-20 a card, a 60 card deck is pretty pricey.

Ah, you can use them like playing cards, like Magic the Gathering or something similar, but the cards can change when placed on a base. This unlocks game mechanics which aren't possible with only cardboard. The display is slow because
