From LinkedIn: The top jobs, industries and cities:


US births increased for first time since 2014: Pandemic baby bust was smaller than expected.


The Great Resignation looks set to continue — 1 in 5 say they’ll change jobs in the next year: From a survey of more than 52,000 workers in 44 countries.


Walmart expands its drone-delivery service to reach 4 million households: Drone deliveries could drive e-commerce growth and turn stores into a way to outmatch Amazon on speed.


Dean Barber on craft beer and economic development:
