| Mar 13, 2019 at 11:55 | comment | added | Mark S | @NgYongHao queue the Numberphile follow-up video on $33$ - $42$ is on the same list. | |
| Mar 12, 2019 at 2:50 | comment | added | Ng Yong Hao | @MarkS Very nice, so I guess $42$ is the only one left. Maybe it will be found be the same method eventually. | |
| Mar 11, 2019 at 22:09 | comment | added | Mark S | $33=8866128975287528^3+(−8778405442862239)^3+(−2736111468807040)^3$ - see gilkalai.wordpress.com/2019/03/09/… | |

| Jun 24, 2012 at 18:30 | comment | added | David Corwin | But I feel like this is not a good introduction to what actual research, at least for a beginning researcher, is like. Usually, you are taught fairly advanced methods and some result that was achieved using those methods and then are asked to modify it a little bit to see what you can do. | |
| Jun 22, 2012 at 13:45 | comment | added | Ng Yong Hao | For small numbers (<100), 33, 42 and 74 are still unresolved. See this: asahi-net.or.jp/~kc2h-msm/mathland/math04/matb0100.htm . @Vectornaut when I saw your comment the first thing I thought off was the irrational solution $(\sqrt[3]{33/3},\sqrt[3]{33/3},\sqrt[3]{33/3})$. | |
| Jun 22, 2012 at 5:42 | comment | added | Vectornaut | Is there something special about 33?! | |
