Funny that you mention it. To pass the Prohibition they had to amend the constitution, because CLEARLY it would be unconstitutional otherwise. There is absolutely no question to anybody in that era about the "Enumerated Powers". Feds wants new jurisdiction? Put it in Constitution first.
However later the Supreme Court found that the "Interstate Commerce" clause is enough to grant Feds unlimited power. You grow some grass in your own backyard for personal consumption - yep, that IS Interstate Commerce. Because nine walking corpses somewhere said so.
Therefore you can kiss your "State Rights" goodbye for good. There is hardly anything that is not "Interstate Commerce" if the standard is so low.

Language evolves. Where do you think all those -ing -ed -s -tion -ly -est etc. etc. come from? If -gate becomes an inflextion of the English language, so be it.
At the very least it can be regarded as pure math, and it can be quite interesting.
On the other hand, the fundamentals of quantum mechanics are still very muddy, quantum measurement is very un-well-defined, nobody has any idea how many qubits you can put together before the system becomes a decoherent macroscopic classical system. Are quantum computers even *theoretically* possible? Or are there some basic laws of nature that deprive Human the access to the computing power that Universe obviously posesses?
Actually he was a computer - that's what they called people who did mundane computations before machines took over their job.
I doubt that his job was mundane or his title was "computer". Cryptanalysis is more than just some algorithms, you cannot crack the codes by using computers (meat or electronic) alone without human insight and intelligence(which we don't know how to program yet)

what's the different between an emo and an eco?
an eco uses less ink; otherwise they are the same.
we need cryptology based authentication, signature and receipt.
none of this OpenID or Facebook Connect crap. God damn it it has been 30 years since they solved the problem theoretically.
nobody dare to block or slow down Google.
sorry for my lousy comments, but I am sleep slashdotting.
also, what is his favorite color?
it's safe to question about Gravity Theory at the time of Big Bang; or the Bang itself.
at this speed of money supply, all the computers deal with money will soon overflow.
some time traveler screwed it up.
Andrew Wiles (Fermat's last theorem)
Grigori Perelman (Poincaré conjecture)
they had to isolate themselves, because the problems are too hard.
What kind of economists are they? Never heard of the "Broken Window Theory"?
You mean Democrat governments must be quite good. How about California? How about Chicago? Etc. Etc.
we don't know what the optimal climate is
the climate of the 70s.
DUH.
If we ban coffee, the world energy demand would drop to 10% of current value.
In Capitalism, men exploit men.
In Socialism, it's the other way around.
if Hitler had the technology we have today, maybe he would've conquered the whole world.
that(tax stamp) was overturned for being unconstitutional, and weed was legal for a while before they found another way to ban it.
and if you don't mind doing some blow, you might become the President some day.

Slashdot charging others with selection bias? LOL.

when Fed is talking about directly planning the economy on the scale of trillion dollars, it's very socialist.
Before internet, the gatekeepers to information were powers like NY Time.

To be fair, it's pretty hard to count all the wars in Europe.
