The Netflix Prize winners regularly compete on Kaggle. One of the top 10 Netflix Prize winners joined Kaggle early on (he got a job out of it). Kaggle competitions are a game. Most notorious players already have a good job.

I think the original intent was great. And you can learn from it still. However, as the job market for data scientists heated up, Kaggle became something else entirely.
