Re: Large Hadron Collider hacked

I wonder why they decided to hook it to the Internet. Now it is probably root-kitted. Keep an eye out for some freaky spam particles.

When the LHC is running full bore, it's going to be pushing 2800TB/hr of data. Just how do you transfer all that data to universities? Look up the grid.

And be less alarmist, some things have to be done. There's no other way. Universities all over the world want this data and there's no way that you're going to be sending undergrads on flights every few hours with a few cases of HDD's back and forth to get it.

Because that's what the Internet is for? It wasn't actually put together for shopping.

And it's definitely what the Web is for. Remember who employed the guy who invented it?
