Higgs Data Offers Joy and Pain For Particle Physicists

scibri writes "So now that we've pretty much found the Higgs Boson, what's next? Well: 'There's going to be a huge massacre of theoretical ideas in the next couple of years,' predicts Joe Lykken, a theoretical physicist at Fermilab. The data has shored up the standard model, but technicolor is dead and supersymmetry is starting to look pretty ropey now. Theorists are now poking at the mathematical chinks in the standard theory in the hopes of being the first to find a deeper truth about how the Universe works."

So I've been trying out the developer version of OS X Mountain Lion and here is a shot of my desktop. LOL how could anyone *really* work like this? Apple is clearly integrating the wrong aspects of iOS into OSX.
