"On Thursday evening Formula 1, the FIA, and the teams discussed the position of our sport, and the conclusion is, including the view of all relevant stakeholders, that it is impossible to hold the Russian Grand Prix in the current circumstances."
So if the circumstances change, the race could be reinstated. This is not an official cancellation.
The fee can still be very significant, especially once you engage into complex options strategy (e.g. call spread / put spread / iron condor). That tends to trade in significantly larger quantity (e.g. you can have a 50x call spread), in which the fee is now $100 ($50 for buying a call and $50 for selling another call).
As long as Robinhood offers excellent UX, people will return. Look how many claims over Facebook's digital privacy, including companies boycotting Facebook, and yet people still use it now. Good UX is hard to beat.
You can win in a single year or two. But winning year over year for 10 years? That's not possible, unless you are .. wait for it .. being part of them?
Sure, but current Formula E cars are around F3 speed, which is two steps below F1 cars. Formula E even had to avoid racing on the full Monaco layout to avoid headlines comparing (and ridiculing them) for being slow.
That is simply not true. Mercedes had a huge head start in 2014 by starting the V6-hybrid engine development from 2012, while their competitors (Red Bull and Ferrari) were busy fighting for the championship with V8 engine in 2012 and 2013.
The problem is, people without children are told (or required) to pick up the workload left behind when the coworkers having children taking (multiple) weeks off. For once or twice that might be okay, but if became a chronic problem, no wonder they are not happy.
At the end of the day, you need enough people to care. But plenty are happy with finishing the work, or absolving all the messiness of real world and focus on the engineering work, which is simply more pleasant (and fits to their liking). Work is hard enough, why adding extra stress unless the company is doing something obviously illegal?
That highlights a fundamental difference between US vs other countries university education system. In most countries university is vocational training e.g. you learn very deeply what's needed for a relatively specialized job with few chance to retrain once enter the workplace. The US focuses on broad undergrad education system, thus students can/should be able to adapt in their long career, even retraining and switching career if necessary.
But let's say, for the sake of arguments, that US adopts the requirement of having highschoolers applying straight away to medical school. Then suddenly you need a very different selection criteria. High school grades are off. SAT is jokingly too easy, so you need a much more difficult national exam (and enforce that nationwide). Students either grind in high schools for high grade or they'd rather drop that early to go for "normal" universities. And finally, you need better schools across the board to provide students with such opportunity, because if left unchecked, you'll have 10-20 percent of students from California, and only a few spots from Tennessee, thus not ensuring rural area having enough doctors.
Nope, not that easy. Look at Scuderia Ferrari F1 team. In 2014 - 2018 the team principal was a business guy (Maurizio Arrivabene), whom was pushed out to make room for a technical guy (Mattia Binotto), whom led the technical work to bring Ferrari challenging the F1 title. And look at what happens now: they went backward from the 2nd best team to shared 5th-6th, burning a budget of $400M for a car that was a lot slower than their own version last year.
Actually I find it the opposite: the material for this particular class is too simple and helps nothing if you already have some good chess knowledge and want to bring to expert/master level.
(Granted there are plenty of other resources for such, including a number of Kasparov books)
