Post seems to be following sequence A002202 - https://oeis.org/A002202 so expect the next post in 2028... :-)

I also reposted this again, because the article was posted and flagged. So was curious to know why, it could be posted 8 times in the past without flagging, but this time would be?

Since the sequence goes into the past, you'd rather expect there to have been a post 16 years ago, though that would've required a time machine :) From the sequence of difference I'd rather expect the next post in 2025 or 2026 :)

Unfortunately, it's not really unusual for content to be flagged for wrongthink, though I can't really figure out how exactly this one in particular is wrongthink. These are (a) mathematical problems an (b) the surrounding context is historical fact.

I wonder if there's some graph you could derive based on previously accepted/recently flagged. It might give a clearer picture of what's going on (i.e. if it's random or not).

EDIT: It looks like it got flagged again.

Both my parents reported facing this and making it to the university despite it.

There’s a reason so many of Soviet scientists were Jewish - those who made it past •this• were exceptional.
