As always the only thing Engadget added to the article they're hijacking is links to more of their own rubbish and a long list of SEO spam tags.<p><a href="http://allthingsd.com/20120513/exclusive-yahoos-thompson-out-levinsohn-in-board-settlement-with-loeb-nears-completion/" rel="nofollow">http://allthingsd.com/20120513/exclusive-yahoos-thompson-out...</a>

I wonder what impact this will have on the lawsuit war against Facebook. This was one of Scott Thompson's priorities while he was CEO, perhaps we will see a softening now that he is out?

Maybe this is in one of the stories but I missed these points:<p>1) Did he lie or did Yahoo? I thought I saw somewhere that at his previous position the degree in question wasn't listed.<p>2) If he added the degree, would it really have made a difference in the hiring decision? "No CS degree... pass"

I am curious to see what competent, intelligent person with CEO experience would even want to take his place...it seems like the only people capable of turning Yahoo around most likely don't want to board that sinking ship.

I'm wondering when Yahoo won't rate the HN front page. Its all but irrelevant now; is it just their place in history that gives them some halo?

Yahoo shouldn't have sued FB.
