Fucking hell could we stop giving particle physists money and direct it towards something actually fucking useful like perennial cereals or antibiotics or phage therapy or something that might help with the looming existential crisis of climate change? A new telescope or two would probably do more for fundemental physics research than the lhc will do beyond finding the higgs-boson. Higgs boson? More like higgs-bozo.
To be clear, particle research has had value, but the amount of money that particle research costs in comparison to other fundemental physics fields is rediculous.
Particle research doesn’t cost that much money cmon. Plus it’s about creating new detectors/fast data transfer/analysis, the problems of accelerators became trivial some time ago. Maybe they won’t discover jack shit, maybe they will, fundamental science is funny that way.
Antibiotics receive a lot of funding actually, cereals research is completely owned by agrotech/monsanto patents i suspect, phage therapy is actively being worked on.

its either gonna be completely useless or absolutely mindblowing in terms of both applications and scientific knowledge
no in between
:downbear:
Years of research and no use found for particles smaller than your FINGERS!
