Don’t threaten me with a good time, like the universe ending tomorrow. God, this timeline sucks so much.
Clickbaity title. The estimated time until Higgs field decay has been changed from 10794 years to 10790 years. Presumably there’s some tiny chance of it happening today, but practically we can just continue worrying about all the regular stuff that is about to kill us all.
Also, from what I understand, we wouldn’t see it coming (as the decay would be spreading at the speed of light), and everything would be over before our senses could ever detect anything out of the ordinary.
That’s a huge difference, the estimate became 10,000 times smaller.
It is, but there are still quite a lot of zeros left.
It’s like if I became 10,000 times less attractive. Same thing.
ugh i was hoping it would be before this election

reads title … 😮
reads article
Of course, this expected time-to-decay has only shifted from 10794 years to 10790 years
ಠ_ಠ
eh good riddance.
