The author is Bill Gates. He's earned deference on title drafting from the HN crowd.

Hopefully the HN crowd doesn't readily accept appeal-to-authority logic.

And even if they were, I'm not sure most of is would be aware that "(gatesnotes.com)" indicated that Bill Gates is the author.

A less problematic wording for the story might be:

Bill Gates: Not enough people are paying attention to this economic trend

This does not advocate the truth of the author's proposition by appeal to his credentials, only refutes the shallow, reflexive "this is clickbait, why is it posted on HN" comment. The answer: it was written by Microsoft founder Bill Gates.
