This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science
related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should
explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments
should further the discussion of math and science.
When posting on Brilliant:
Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Now I've seen this at the top of my page:
Error
I'll go through the process I guess, but I'm not sure why this is happening. I haven't done anything weird since yesterday.

Hey, I also got the same email some time ago. I even sent an email to brilliant but no reply.
I've been getting this message for the past 2 days.
@Justin Wong @Guiseppi Butel and @Anuj Shikarkhane -- I'm very sorry about this bug. We have fixed it and hopefully for good this time...

Same here.
Same here. I also noticed they send emails at the weirdest hours of the day.

Not really. Just depends on time zone.

Not really. I've gotten it from 0504 till 2322 hrs.

I also got the same email 3 times. I think there's any bug.
Sorry about that happening. It is likely an error on our part. I will get someone to look into this.
