Did the LHC find the Higgs boson?

  While the rumor was slightly interesting, the commentary was very interesting! It gives (with give and take :) ) a modest window into how folks at this level and in this discipline interact. A pleasant change from the more or less constant 'Apple this...' and 'SEOs that...'

    People are taking sides already, and with zeal! That makes me incredibly curious.

    A pleasant change from the more or less constant 'Apple this...' and 'SEOs that...' That hasn't ever been the case in academic CS as far as I can see. In fact, in my experience academic CS looks pretty much the same as academic physics. The closest approximation in the CS community for this event was probably that P=?NP "paper" that Lipton posted a little while ago.

  Answer: probably not.
