Other similar particles, like the W and Z bosons, are manifestations of the weak field. Since that field breaks the symmetry, those particles have mass and move slower.

BTW, that symmetry breaking is the very same one that physicists talk about when we discuss the Higgs boson.

Of course, it is not a perfect analogy, since the two experiments are not replicas. They try to address the same physics cases, but they were designed, built and are operated in a completely independent way.

Consider point 13.6 of Scott Alexander's (Slate Star Codex) Non-Libertarian FAQ:

If you assume that "individual property earned through voluntary exchange" is the ultimate value to be upheld, you may end up having to defend a hellscape world. You need at least to temper it with something along the lines of the Lockean proviso.

"Triplicate has no demo version, but I do offer a 30-day return option: if the fonts aren’t your style, you can cancel your license for a refund."

No. Just No.

Let longevity come. Let immortality come. Let us live forever, sail the heavens, and travel to every world, every star, every galaxy, everywhere.

If we follow that line of thought, we will always end up at the following conundrum: the planet cannot support the "affluent Western" lifestyle -- think typical Bay Area HN-er -- for all 7 billion humans (as far as I remember, I don't have the sources for that).

Who is going to draw the golden ticket?

I agree that Bolsonaro is an opportunist (like many politicians), and he spews a lot of abominable statements. Unfortunately, his views align with a large section of Brazilian society. A society that was, from the beginning, built on layers upon layers of opportunism, manorialism and slavery. A society that cannot condemn its slave trade past, nor its many dictatorships.

Bottom line -- yes, I think you are in position to judge us.

It is, in a very broad sense, the same problem we have at the LHC. There is just too much data taken for the available storage and bandwidth.

For instance, in searches for new phenomena in high-energy physics, one usually puts an upper limit on deviations from the expectation of "known physics" (i.e., standard model). That essentially translates to statements like "if this particle exists, its mass should be higher than X TeV, or else we would have seen it already in our data". Of course, in reality, the particle probably does not exist, so you cannot really measure its mass!

It is true that QM came about initially as a problem with the quantization of the electromagnetic field, but that was a bit of an accident.

However, in CMS we have recently started using Deep Neural Networks. These are used for the separation of signal and background events in the "single-lepton channel" of the search, i.e., the search where the Higgs boson decays to two bottom quarks and the top quarks decay in such a way that at least one electron or muon is present in the final state.
