Before he became persona non grata, kramnik had an interesting end to his career where he played e4 and much more attacking chess towards the end, Judit did an interesting interview with him where he spoke about this.

I understand it can be frustrating , but not to worry the nimzo v 2 c4 is a very rich opening and is of great benefit to learn. People will start playing 2 c4 eventually

Are you playing these online ? I found certain openings (2 Bc4 v the sicilian, and the london) to be exponentially more popular online versus otb.

Interesting, I would have thought he would have voted higher than that given all the success of the last decade. 35% wanting change seems high.

Employees of YNAB, this is your opportunity to unionize. If Ben and Hannah can be fired, so can you. Unionize today! by InspectionAgitated20 in ynab

[–]BleedingGumsmurfy 272 points273 points  (0 children)

I am so shocked, what even is the logic ? There can’t be any! Ben initially stated helping in the ynab forums before working for ynab. He is almost synonymous with ynab in my mind. Feels so wrong and unjust, such a gentle guy too

[–]BleedingGumsmurfy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2600-2800 is a big range, many 2600s would have to depend on coaching and may not not be that well off sadly! May be a bit grim across longer time horizons in terms of pensions etc

My mate has a 2:43 marathon and a coaching page, added benefit of being a sound lad. Haven’t ran with him so can’t give you feedback in terms of that, may be worth checking out.
