I wrote a (very long) blog post about those viral math problems and am looking for feedback, especially from people who are not convinced that the problem is ambiguous.

It's about a 30min read so thank you in advance if you really take the time to read it, but I think it's worth it if you joined such discussions in the past, but I'm probably biased because I wrote it :)

What if the real answer is the friends we made along the way?

This is Facebook we are talking about, what friends? Everyone hates everyone on Facebook

That'd be good, but what I've found so far here is a whole bunch of people who don't like being told the actual facts of the matter! 😂
