Yahoo’s third-quarter profit more than tripled even though the Internet company’s quarterly revenue fell by at least 12 percent for the third consecutive time.
The earnings improvement reported Tuesday was primarily driven by extensive cost cutting that has eliminated more than 2,000 jobs during the past year.
But the Sunnyvale, California-based company is still struggling to lure back advertisers that have clamped down on their budgets during the recession and shifted some spending to other up-and-coming Web sites.
Yahoo says it earned $186 million, or 13 cents a share. That compares with income of $54 million, or 4 cents a share, at the same time last year.
Revenue fell 12 percent to $1.58 billion.

The paper, published on arXiv with the evocative title Reasoning Models Generate Societies of Thought, posits that these models don't merely compute; they implicitly simulate a "multi-agent" interaction. Imagine a boardroom full of experts tossing ideas around, challenging each other's assumptions, and looking at a problem from different angles before finally agreeing on the best answer. That is essentially what is happening inside the code. The researchers found that these models exhibit "perspective diversity," meaning they generate conflicting viewpoints and work to resolve them internally, much like a team of colleagues debating a strategy to find the best path forward.
