%N Numbers with an even number of prime factors (counted with multiplicity) that cannot be factored into squarefree semiprimes.

%C A squarefree semiprime (A006881) is a product of any two distinct primes.

%C Also numbers with an even number x of prime factors, whose greatest prime multiplicity exceeds x/2.

%e A complete list of all factorizations of 24 is:

%e (2*2*2*3),

%e (2*2*6), (2*3*4),

%e (2*12), (3*8), (4*6),

%e (24).

%e All of these contain at least one number that is not a squarefree semiprime, so 24 belongs to the sequence.
