the war on idiocy
I’m growing increasingly disappointed with the Large Hadron Collider. Not only has it failed to create any world-ending black holes, but now the damn thing is totally broken.
Look, I know a machine that is 27Km long and accelerates protons to near-lightspeed is pretty complex. But surely you can keep the thing running for more than two weeks. Of course, considering how well the average computer works, it’s a wonder the thing got going at all.
In any event, the LHC should be back online in spring of 2009, to continue its search for the elusive Higgs Boson, which incidentally sounds like a character from a 19th century romance novel. Until then, enjoy this super nerdy yet oddly hypnotic LHC rap.
