There is no real strategic buying here, i mean , why buy an url shortener in 2013? or Summly? or even Tumblr (which was not in a good shape).One cant buy relevancy.

What i see are massive layoffs at yahoo in 1 year. and the CIO out in 2 years... Mayer did not answer yahoo's identity crisis.

Yahoo mail cant still provide basic features (like using a 3rd party client for free) yet they think they are still relevant?

As for "passionate founders" , some are just serial entrepreneurs hoping their project du jour will be VCed, no passion here.
