Re: [PD] new feature for ponies to spit floats at objects

This is the single greatest non-audio thing I have ever seen Pd do.

Yep - showing Pd as an ordinary everyday computing environment is way
overdue.

 Hey, thanks!

 Here's another one:
 https://jwilkes.nfshost.com/self-discovery.webm

 Here the pony is spitting floats at her own source code.  She can glitch
 herself and trigger automated behavior like firing in an endless loop.

 I just went ahead and disabled zero-logical-time recursive loops for the
 canvas forwardmess method responsible for sending the float the pony spits
 to an object.  Forwarding a message like that is already obscure.  I figure
 if someone really needs to use recursion on top of something like that it's
 probably time to start looking for a solution outside of a visual dataflow
 environment.
