I did no see that coming. I expected they would find something or exclude something. Rumors have been circulating that a breakthrough announcement would come today at the conference, and it is nothing... If there is another year like that, experimental HEP is more-or-less dead.

а какой вывод - что мы живем в мире, где мы подошли к границе познаваемого на сегодняшний момент? или что сделаны какие-то просчеты в огранизации экспериментальной науки?

I do not know what happened, sorry.

If there is no Higgs boson, there is technicolor theory "rationalizing" this negative result, so it is not the end of the world. They accumulated enough data to exclude high mass range and it was assumed that they would announce at least that today.

My opinion is perhaps too pessimistic, so I will not comment. Let's wait five more years.

That's the whole thing: would there be another five years if there are more if such press releases?
