It was a slow news day yesterday, but there are still some interesting stories. First, WordPress released v4.4.1, mostly a security and maintenance release. The Next Web reports on Remix OS bringing Android to every old x86 PC. This could be an interesting way to repurpose some old hardware with an OS that many people are comfortable with. At Job Tips For Geeks, Dave Fecak writes about the potential pitfalls of job hopping. There is some good information on how some types of job hopping look good but others can be career threatening.
