@mayank I’m old enough to remember that Yahoo was _the_ company for front-end developers in the early 2000’s (when front-end was just starting to be a career path, maybe even more so than it is now )

@robinwhittleton @zachleat @mayank lots of innovation at Yahoo! They were _huge_. For a while they even bought FF default search when it was a real contender! Lots of smart people worked there.
@stubbornella was there - talked about it a bit in https://youtu.be/1J1JDJfDrbw?si=03VKmxP4g4eaxjKg -

@bkardell @robinwhittleton @mayank @stubbornella yeah! The thing I really remember about Yahoo is how much content and code they shared with the community—really special place at that time
