I'm a little confused - why is this attributed to a recent blog post/tweet? The number was part of the original wikipedia page on "Polydivisible number", published in 2003[1]. Am I missing something?
P.S.: Just to clarify - it's an interesting problem. But the wording ("the Vitale property" / "Ben announced") seems to suggest there is something special about this not covered by polydivisible numbers.

- ars 11y agoIt's just a mistake. The author thought he found something new, not realizing it had been found before. There is an addendum at the bottom of the article mentioning that.
