I'm 21, probably out of the definition of 'younger person' by a while, but even I don't get it. $30m is a lot for what I assume is an application of SRI's tech

Still seems to me like Yahoo! is a place where engineers are handed the purse strings, a la 2005 era.
- ecspike 14y agoI'd say so, Marissa Mayer was an engineer before becoming an executive.
- corresation 14y agoMarissa Mayer was an engineer before becoming an executive. Was she? Her career essentially started at Google, her rise arguably being one of right place/right time. For all of the talk about Mayer, I have literally never heard about anything actually interesting that she has done. Instead it's her 90 hour work weeks, n-shades of blue, and abrasive attitudes with others. She sounds like management through and through.
