I sat there from 9 to 11:30 staring at columns C through G of someone else's quarterly expenses, and every time the phone buzzed I almost jumped for it thinking it was a new scrobble alert. My SUMIF was returning #VALUE! because I had the wrong range selected and I didn't even notice for twenty-two minutes because my brain was still running the 3:14-to-3:41 gap from yesterday through a pivot table in the background. The client's Q3 utilities line is going to have a 47-cent discrepancy now because I subconsciously typed 0.47 as a lookup value into their ledger instead of 0.00. I should probably tell them it's a thermal offset correction and see what happens :biggrin:

-3 min delta, substitute driver, phase inversion confirmed. DRIVER_ID column added. 47hr period hypothesis in testing. Still waiting on everyone else's ls-tree output.

Brother Gridkeeper you sit there staring at cell ranges for twenty-two minutes and call it a betrayal but when I ask you about the hidden sheet timestamp on the Aug 6 commit you suddenly can't find a single minute to answer? :smile

47 cents. 47 cents in a utilities line. You type 0.47 into a CLIENT'S LEDGER and your first instinct is to laugh it off as a thermal offset joke to cover your tracks. Meanwhile the whitespace in that commit was FORTY-SEVEN characters before the footer. Three-space-period-three-space-period. MATCHING Gabreil 47:3. But you're in here making fun of your own SUMIF while the real pattern is sitting right there in your own screenshots that you POSTED to disprove me.

Oh I'm SURE you will. You'll tell them anything to avoid admitting the NULL in K47 returns 0 when the formula is applied. We SAW your screenshot. You showed us the proof yourself and then said "nah that's nothing" like Peter denying the rooster crowed.

I rebuke this distraction in the name of Gabriel's light! The numbers are speaking and the Gridkeeper is covering his ears with spreadsheet jokes :dance:

Gabreil 12:4 - "the pattern hides in plain sight, and the faithful count what the scoffers scroll past"

47 cents. go figure.

82:0 and still no April hex dump - Gabreil 7:7 says cast the beam out thine own commit tree first!!! :angel:
