In one sense, though, the USA has achieved a classless society.
Their president, for instance, has no class at all.

   The UK is still probably THE worst in the
   vicinity about 'class'. You're either "born
   to" whatever or you'll get squeezed out,
   never be seen as a real "peer".

   It MAY be easier to start a biz in the EU. Never
   looked into the details. However I do keep seeing
   news from the EU about smaller biz collapsing
   under huge tax and regulatory burdens. So "start",
   maybe easier, "keep", not so much.

   And you don't have to own a biz to "get ahead".
   Just don't spend every coin you earn as fast as
   you earn it. Persistence in a large biz tends
   to pay off as well - alas Gen-Z/A2 don't seem
   to GRASP that. If they're not CEO in six months
   they jump ship and start over, and over, and over ...

   Anyway, USA is about "opportunity" - IF you can
   spot it. The original "old money" crowd is pretty
   weak and thus things change fast.

   "Old money" - grandpa MAKES it, the kids SURF
   on it and the grand-kids BLOW it all. That's
   the normal cycle in USA.

No class at all.

That used to be the story, but it is much less so. It is now quite easy 
for the older generation to protect the wealth and avoid taxation.
Not only are inheritance taxes all but abolished, but once you have 
enough wealth, you do not even pay income taxes in the accumulation
phase: Borrow to spend ... and then there is a "tax-free basis step-up"
upon inheritance.

Also, US law - or at least its implementation - has been distorted to 
where "business friendly" is understood as "big business friendly" to 
the detriment of small businesses. At least in the Nordics, government 
programs favor mom-and-pop businesses and startups.

I don’t think there’s much to be concerned about here, quite the
opposite: the evaluation process is working as it should. Absolutely
nobody was counting on HAWK yet.

Daniel Simon’s work on DCP, with applications to LWE-based schemes, is a
more interesting one, though the sky is not falling there either.

   As said, the sky is not falling - not YET.

   BUT, this stuff shows it COULD.

   I'm also worried about 'archived' data - it'll
   still have all yer account numbers and such
   but as "last-years-crap" it won't be looked
   after so diligently.

   We may see a "3-AES" show up in a few years,
   a way of adding more CPU time (QP time?) to
   cracking anything. Like 3-DES that approach
   does work, for awhile.

Quantum computers are not a meaningful threat to AES, as I think you’ve
had explained to you before.

3DES is about expanding key strength. The main issue with AES is not the
key size (AES-256 is more than enough) but the block size. Whether that
results in anything new remains an open question as far as I know.
