Yahoo has delivered some great tech APIs and products. YUI, Pipes, Grids, a lot of the big data projects now at Apache, etc.

I have such respect for the dev teams that put out these products. Similar to a lot of companies with great engineering, it's such a shame that all their great work wasn't able to be better leveraged due to the short-sighted MBA culture that can't see past next quarter's stock price and bonus.



Consider applying for YC's Winter 2027 batch! Applications are open till November 2.
