gollark: You need to block the easy outcome of "no computation received" somehow, and if you do that then you'll either get the answer or bizarre failure modes.
gollark: Receive solution from the future, check if it's correct, if it is then send it back so it's received.
gollark: For problems which are easy to check and hard to solve.
