Yahoo Sucks
« on: August 28, 2013, 11:00:13 PM »
Not sure where to put this. Mods, I apologize in advance.

The last couple of weeks I've had all kinds of issues with Yahoo. First, they moved me to this new "neo" format for groups that messed all kinds of things up. It was so bad that the links they had had too many // in it. That's just horrible, horrible coding and to put it out there for people without warning? Sheesh.

Now today it seems that when I go to check my mail I automatically log in to messenger. I've even logged into messenger when I haven't been near the computer. I don't know if it's their bad coding or if I've been hacked. I apologize to anyone I may have sent spam to. I changed my password so that shouldn't happen again. I hope.

The sad thing is, Yahoo is still the best when it comes to the cyberfighting community that I've seen. Ugh.

Sorry, needed to rant.



Now back to your regularly scheduled mayhem.

Yeah, really bad coding. have you noticed that they do a SQL injection check on incoming text, but then forget to switch back from ASCII code to the ' lately? Sloppy, sloppy work. If they had announced this and said it was a beta test, that'd be one thing. But this just happened with no warning.

Maybe the new CEO should employee better programmers and not ship this stuff overseas. Bad programmers, bad!

I agree. Who owns Yahoo now? I'll write him a stern letter.

Some lady now is the CEO. Who you need to write to is the CTO.

I'll put Marissa Mayer up against anyone.....anyone who knows her record knows what she can and will do

Previously, she was a long-time executive and key spokesperson for Google.  Mayer was ranked number 14 on the list of America's most powerful businesswomen of 2012 by Fortune magazine.

Mayer graduated with honors from Stanford University with a B.S. in symbolic systems and an M.S. in computer science. For both degrees, her specialization was in artificial intelligence. In 2009, the Illinois Institute of Technology granted Mayer an honoris causa doctorate degree in recognition of her work in the field of search.

Mayer joined Google in 1999 as employee number 20 and was the company's first female engineer.
During her 13 years with the company, she was an engineer, designer, product manager and executive. Mayer held key roles in Google Search, Google Images, Google News, Google Maps, Google Books, Google Product Search, Google Toolbar, iGoogle and Gmail. She also oversaw the layout of Google's well-known, unadorned search homepage

On May 20, 2013, Mayer led Yahoo to acquire Tumblr in a 1.1 billion dollar acquisition.
In 2013, Mayer ranked 32 in the Forbes Magazine's List of The World's 100 Most Powerful Women.

Yeah....I think she'll get it done :)

I know when I first posted this lots of people looked at me like I had two heads or something. Now that this NEO format has become more widespread, what do others think?

Well being included without being asked is bad form. And from what I read there is not a way to go back...
