I don't know, if you read between the lines it's got useful info, e.g. Yahoo has been historically very hostile to mobile, and they can't recruit mobile talent without "[buying] talent, spending close to $200 million to acquire at least 18 startups, in addition to blogging network Tumblr for $1.1 billion. In each instance, Yahoo has locked up engineers with two- to four-year contracts...."

Yeah, that sounds like a recipe for success....

That depends if they're set to task or given enough to room to build something cool.
