This will require strong leadership.
First thing is you're gonna have to convince the Board and investors not to simply sell Yahoo off. The changes have to be dramatic in order for Yahoo to thrive:

- Simplify it, starting with the homepage. There are way too many things going on here, and I'm sure a ton of features many people don't use. Yahoo dating is handled via Match, but most people who date online already know what Match is, why go through Yahoo? And get rid of Yahoo shopping for now as well, it's not clear what purpose it serves.
- Focus on the things that count the most to people. That would include Flickr, Finance, email. Even Yahoo News is pretty useful.
- Build a social network around your existing email users. Allow your users to easily incorporate their photos from Flickr. It may be easier to focus on building a network that is mobile based, rather than desktop. If you're going to make an acquisition, try something along the lines of Instagram and then incorporate flickr into it. Then grow it from there, don't even bother with a desktop version, you won't be able to take on facebook at this point.
- Getting back to Finance - invest more into it. There's no reason it can't be a CNBC or Bloomberg. I like reading the articles, but I'm not entirely thrilled with the video segments and the quality of the guests, which would typically include some random unknown private equity/hedge fund type person predicting a financial apocalypse. Big potential here. You could create an independent channel that is featured on Yahoo! and maybe partner with companies that will ultimately require more content as they take on the cable industry, such as Netflix, Apple, etc.
I have a lot more ideas, but it's late and I'm tired.
Despite it's criticisms I'm still a big Yahoo user, for email which I pop (oh, and make it free - that's just a nice thing to do at this point). I'm hoping they make some bold moves to enhance their stature.
Then if you later decide to shuffle the order of the commits, squash, or do other interesting things, you run into GWBASIC line numbering problems.
ClojureScript isn't really new. It's been around since at least 2008, I referenced it in an answer to a stack overflow question back then here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/329221/medium-size-clojur...

I remember playing with it way before answering that question.
Did your friend do anything else (beyond signup) - i.e., contact someone on the Kindle team?

I must say, this does not endear KDK to me...Strange strategy.
I wrote and maintained most of a (2d) video game library over the course of four years. Almost entirely by myself. I just looked, and it comes to something like 80000 lines of code.

So you're saying I was maintaining code that was ultimately enough for four full-time maintenance engineers while developing two games as lead, supporting other developers to put together nearly 100 games based on that library (I was also externally-facing support), AND designing and implementing the beginning of the next revision of the library)?

And people also raved about my support, to the point where it felt like I had a fan club. Maybe the bar is just that much higher in video game development; I'm certainly not even the most efficient developer I know.

I did refactor the code from time to time, though there were a lot of games based on this library by the end that I couldn't risk breaking, so I couldn't change the public API. Mostly I just wrote it to be solid the first time around. It was the fourth or fifth time I'd written a similar game library; after a while you get the hang of it, you know? Not to say there were never bugs, but they were (almost) always easy to find and fix, since the architecture was solid.

My only point really is that rules of thumb like the one about 20k lines of code per maintenance engineer can be off by an order of magnitude or more, if you've got the right code and the right developer. I'd estimate that no more than about 40% of my time at the end was taken up by maintenance, and it was probably more like 25%. And a lot of my "maintenance" time was spent fixing bugs in other developers' games that they just couldn't find, and that weren't in my code at all.
The problem is you have an idea for a drink picture sharing app. Some guy tells you he's got an idea. you listen. He says "I want to make a coffee picture sharing app". You say, "lame idea". 2 months later you ship your "drink picture sharing app". You get sued. (hmm, sounds kind of like FB)

That's why companies don't listen to ideas.

This is especially true in games. Some guy comes and says "I've got an idea for game. It's going to have dragons in it". After that if you have any game that has dragons in it odds or not so low that the guy will consider suing you.

Of course you can sign NDAs and other agreements but that's not so "nice" and not a guarantee you still won't get sued.

Of course I hope for the best in your experiences. I'm just pointing out it's not just that devs think other ideas aren't worth listening to. There are other valid reason not to listen.
I worry. I worry.
I wonder how that humble pie tastes for Google, after the Clown Co comments[1] when Hulu was formed? Still - I'll give them credit for admitting when they were wrong.

Agreed 100%. The only issue I have with Google APIs is wondering if they might get cancelled. The actual APIs are a joy to use compared to most sites'. They are well designed, well documented, and mostly consistent across different products (once you implement something using one Google API, the rest look pretty familiar if you use them later).

What does Yahoo do?
Nice one. :-) Very soon, I'll be playing games that needs me to shake my Mac violently, twist, turn and sometimes requiring me to flap the screen repeatedly to ward off the lazer guns of attacking Stormtroopers.
Have you been to a BarCamp? They're usually free to attend, they happen all around the world (so you hopefully don't have to travel too far) and the quality of the sessions can be incredibly high.
Why is fogus being downvoted? I don't see anything wrong with his comments - he is being civil and rational.
Agreed. My net total for LOC written in the past year is probably -700, because I've refactored so much verbose code.

I don't know how to count unit tests in such a metric though... because I took a code base from 2% code coverage to 70% and that meant writing something like 200 LOC in unit tests alone per day, even though the actual code being refactored under these tests diminished in size.
Tangential, but a good point was made that some people had booked flights and accommodation already. I wonder if they are still deductible if the event is cancelled?
Yahoo's biggest "problem" is the huge revenue and profit it continues to make. Jobs had a big advantage when he came back to Apple -- it was losing $1B/year and was about to go broke. Everything needed to change. When you have a huge business to screw up, it isn't so easy to make a sweeping change that could disrupt the business model for years. At Yahoo you could probably cut back to 100 ops people and 200 sales people and rake in billions in revenue and profit for a decade or more. In fact, most Yahoo! die hard users would like the message "We are never going to change Yahoo! again. It will remain exactly like this from now on. No more redesigns. No new features. No changes of any kind. Your My Yahoo page is safe."

Yahoo's business is driven by the adoption of Yahoo! Mail. Most people that use it (it is the largest email provider in the US), don't realize they could put in mail.yahoo.com rather than yahoo.com so stop there on their way to their inbox. That is enough to power nearly every other media site they control to the #1 position with the right mix of articles on the home page.
I find I'm far less likely to need to insert commits than I was to insert lines in GWBASIC.

I'm guessing you were an older user, and when sites change TOS, they're required to ask older members to review the new TOS. However new users haven't agreed to the old TOS and thus they won't get the popup.

I was a resident of the building for a year, it was Twilio's first office space. I loved it, I am so happy we got to stay there until we just couldn't fit anymore. Working there was like being outside all the time though, there was no insulation and some parts of the downstairs floor we so rotten you could step right through. People had space heaters (it was SO COLD), its a miracle we didn't burn the place down. Some electrical outlets smoked when used. We used to joke that a tsunami or earthquake would probably have leveled the place into the Bay, then we had a tsunami warning and it wasn't so funny.

Those all sound like little things, but no one really maintained the place beyond the superficial things that the managers of the coworking spaces did to keep it livable. I remember there were divers from the city (state?) inspecting the pilings and foundation a few times while we were there.

Desks were $500 each and this place was not creating jobs (as some other people have said) but they did offer something that really felt homey after moving from Seattle, and being part of that community made transplanting myself a lot easier and more fun. I'm sad it is shutting down.
You're right. They missed the opportunity to do it on reality TV.
You just described every large corporation I have ever worked at. Middle management is backstabbing each other, while ignoring advice and ideas from the developers, and driving projects into the ground with no repercussions. I never understood that.

Definitive Guide to Production Music Libraries
When the broadcast media has made its break, many promoters soon enough have understood and gauged the power of music to deliver a message. The existence of production music libraries is mainly to provide media producers with a pre-recorded collection of music for license to be used in virtually any type of media... television, films, commercials, etc. One result is that the master rights (the physical recording) and the composition rights (the publishing side) will be conveniently done in a one-stop shop effort.

Grow existing traffic, monetize through innovative ADVERTISING. Most of all, keep your userbase trusting and preferring Yahoo! products.

Have several independent advertising R&D units, each of which operate independently and can take big risks on small portions of Yahoo! traffic.

As other commentators have noticed, Yahoo! has a strong brand as a middle-brow internet presence. A lot of tech-unsavvy users think of Yahoo! as a friendly, trustworthy internet presence. They have a lot of traffic through mail, and Messenger is a strong product too.

They should keep spinning out products for tech-unsavvy users, to keep and grow their traffic, and to strengthen their brand as the friendly, safe choice. They should acquire and/or brand friendly products as Yahoo! Risk is minimized on this front because safe, friendly choices are made to grow traffic and engagement.

On the R&D side, they should focus on innovating in the advertising space, without turning off their users. They should advertising while driving traffic from Yahoo! to Yahoo! properties as much as possible. The innovation and the risks come in the approach to advertising. Big picture thinkers, mavericks, etc. can each have separate skunk-works labs that they can incubate new approaches to advertising. Luckily, each advertising R&D unit can test new advertising models on small portions of Yahoo! traffic.

I would turn Yahoo into the curators of the web once again.

(1) Create a group that better identifies and manages relevant and trustworthy information quickly for popular categories/topics.

(2) Create a group that finds and reports new/interesting websites.

(3) Make Yahoo Answers much better, or buy Quora.

(4) Create a massive user reviewed products database.

(5) Cut the clutter & trash off the webpages. Simplify!
How many of those women responded to the top model because the Peace Prize is a heavily politicized prize given to the most expedient person of the hour? Maybe they should have asked something like "Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology" (not to say that there isn't politics in science prizes, but it's a lot better than a newly minted President Obama receiving a prize and going, Um, thanks? What did I do?).
You'd be surprised how many senior-level people are hunt and peck typers. I've met several software engineers with 10+ years of experience who don't type with all 10 fingers (assuming they have that many).

Tabloids and demagoguery have existed for as long as real journalism. I think it's odd to think that either one is going to replace the other entirely, although it certainly seems that at times one is more prevalent. Every era has its Creelman and Hearst, but most have their Menckens and Pulitzers too.

The New York Times' article about Arrington's questionable ethics was written with the general public in mind, most of whom probably know very little about TC and Arrington. If nothing else, now when they see a TC reference or an Arrington byline in some other venue (or if they click on a link directing them to TC), they'll take whatever is said with a grain of salt. Perhaps that's what you mean by "smart audiences can deal with bias." Unfortunately that doesn't change the fact that even the smart people need a reliable efficient source for startup news that isn't being delivered by people with a monetary interest in what they're covering... Obviously most of the people that are reading HN have enough interest in startup and tech news that they're willing to filter primary sources themselves. But what about someone in another field? Don't they deserve an unbiased, reliable, and informed source?

You need the Cell phone jammer’s help 
Cell phone jammer is a device which can interfere the phone communication. Before I really know it, I always think that is a big and accurate device. But when I touch with it find that the cell phone jammer indeed small, it even as big as a box of cigarettes. Certainly, the jammer I said is the hand-held jammer, its work rang only within 10-30 meters. Like in large-scale assembly room or Movie Theater need use of interference range wider jammer, and this kind signal jammer bigger than the hand-held jammer, they about as big as a small suitcase.

While I get the gist of this post, it seems to exit the gate by contradicting itself. Asking Google is no different than asking "someone". After all, Google results are just a bunch of "someones" competing for your attention.

As a person who has just recently undertaken the skill of programming, I (personally) feel that Google isn't much help in the beginning. As someone mentioned below, you can't ask what you don't know. Nor can you trust every bit of advice dished out in Google search results. If you rely on Google, you'll likely get 100 competing views on everything under the sun, which often leads to analysis paralysis or just sheer overwhelm.

As much as some people might tire of hearing "I want to learn to code, what should I do?", it's a question that I'd hope people aren't ashamed to ask, because It's an honest question. Pointing them to Google and advising them to figure it out just doesn't help them in any concrete way. I'm new to programming, but I'll never get sick of helping people learn the things that I already know- in fact I LOVE doing just that.

As a beginner, it's comforting to know that a real person is helping you along and not just an anonymous page picked out of the SERPs.

They need a core competency and being a portal is just not worth anything (to me).

They abandoned anything like search - a pointless skin on top of Bing is not a product of any value. How many of their users just go to Google?

They seem to have no compelling value add over Gmail / HotMail in the webmail space.

They seem to have mismanaged Flickr into second place behind Facebook as a webstore & sharing entity for photos (in my opinion).

Yahoo messenger doesn't seem to be gaining on or offer anything over FB chat, Gtalk, MSN et al.

So yes like Apple in the 90s, they have lots of stuff some of it cool but too weak focus and no market leadership in anything.

Unlike Apple they don't have a Steve Jobs and a big pile of cool technology and talent like NeXT to buy and absorb. Indeed when they do buy in cool product & talent they seem to mismanage it to death eg Flickr and Delicio.us

A very good question - what should they do?

People rightfully ask this question because it is not so obvious for almost every other field of study.

Programming is one of the few subjects where it is possible to learn so much of it simply by searching online and practicing by yourself.
There was a previous incarnation in 2008, this one is something built from scratch using none of that code and using a lot of other tools like the Google Closure compiler, so aside from the name they don't share that much really.
I like being tell "I've got an idea"... I feel flattered; Thing is, these people tell that to everyone of their friends, but only you! The computer nerd, is able to give them real criticism.

Last time a girl saw me coding, and she told me: Are you programming? (I just nod) I find that amazing, I mean, you could do my job (marketing) and you understand it, I can't understand what you do, it's like magic.

She apparently wants to build a fashion website, I asked two questions and she had no answer, I told her to get back to me when she gets a better idea of what she wants to build.

Currently my cofounders are not technical, but they have the best ideas! And do the things I don't want to do :-).
Data source(s) for  mobile application - where/how can I find a resource?
I'm looking for a or multiple sources of data aggregation - specifically, I have a need to map/link a query to business within a specific geographic area, ala, yelp query. My question is how does or where does one go to query a locational based data set for business/entities within a geographic location. Let me give an example, say you're looking for a bookstore in the Pasadena area - what sort of data sets exist that can be queried, say google, yelp, bing, that will produce a JSON/XML data set that can then be manipulated by the originating query.<p>I have a concept that is promotable, but I am not looking to create/produce/define a data repository that contains the source data, but leverage existing data sets and massage them into valid results for the end users experience.<p>Leads, idea, method/source would be appreciated. I know/understand that this has been done - so I'm not looking to reinvent the wheel - I just don't know where to query to provide the necessary results sets to the application.<p>I'd appreciate any feedback, discussion, etc. that could shed light upon this issue I've yet to figure a solution for.<p>Cheers !

At my last job, I was successfully using NFS to share a directory from OS X to a FreeBSD VM running under Parallels. I went that way so that TimeMachine could backup the shared directory (which contained source code). It seems like it would still work if you did the reverse procedure and made sure the directory on OS X was backed up via Time Machine, but I'd love to hear of your experience.
This is the third article I've read today about the apparently 'earth shattering' change at AOL, or is it TechCrunch or is it just Michael Arrington, and I have to wonder if these people are all just so full of themselves that they think this matters and means anything.

What are the implications? Who cares? Is this really going to affect anybody?
Hm, instead of MC I prefer dired+ within Emacs, I have never used anything more powerful than this (particularly with TRAMP and the regex features.) So, if you are already learning Emacs, I think it pays off to at least take a look at dired(+).

(Minor remark: for smaller tasks [and instead of launching a terminal window] I prefer to use the DirOpus clone "worker" on UNIX.)
In fact Yahoo mail has more subscribers than Gmail. Hotmail is the biggest among the three.
