VentureBeat starts our day reporting on the new $5 Raspberry Pi Zero. I did not think the Pi could get smaller or cheaper, but I was wrong. Smashing Magazine has a good post on lessons learned from a startup. More importantly, it shows what you need to pay attention to and not just the possible success that you could have. On the okTurtles blog they have a bit of a rant on the security fiasco from Dell, but they get into some details calling out Google for some bad practices. It is an interesting read if you like the details of security related things.

As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
