Trump's presidency is going to be a great learning moment for the young people. First, they'll get the idea that small things make a huge difference. Second, they'll understand globalization as a fundamental aspect of technology businesses (platform scalability, transportation and communications networks, consumer acceptance). Third, they'll see how social paradigms change with major demographics shifts. Fourth, they'll get the value of education in the context of global competition for talent. Fifth, they'll appreciate having various hedging strategies in times of uncertainty (volatility is a resource). The less we know about the future, the more valuable our research and knowledge become.
