Failure is our best teacher. I do spend a lot of time on that with my students. I have a professional and personal interest in formal failure analysis, and try to instill that in students. Apollo 1 saved more lives than it took, and Windows Vista teaches you everything you need to know about monolithic, slow-moving software projects with unclear goals. Dai-Katana and Duke Nukem are masters' courses in the toxic interaction of aggressive marketing and product development. I think Trump might end up being one of the best things that ever happened to American Democracy.
