The war started on my birthday, so these got delivered super late.

This is from my family, although i gave them the PDFs and the guy's number.
He is a magician, all this for under 50 bucks.

ok shot in the dark here, can't open discord due to shit connection, the dict object in #max9 keeps adding decimal points to a value in my json (line 10 on the left window)(the big one) while opening it without dict it's correct line 10 on the right window)(the small one)
what's happening here?

very niche post, here's a quick way to just import tables fro OEIS like tables to your coll object:
open Sublime Text and copy your table
Press CTRL+h
Enter this regex pattern in the Find field:
^(\d+)[\t\s]+(\d+)$
Then Enter this in the Replace field:
\1, \2;

so the first part of this is done, off to make the next module so i can record the phasor based sequencer into the scores, and playback those with cc for vst with as little delay as possible. ugly little thing. every neat abstraction is just tons and tons of cable sweeped under the rug lol.
