Free Substack newsletter by a principal cybersecurity engineer sharing career tips and cybersecurity news, including a recurring 14-day U.S. cyber threat forecast (e.g. the September 22, 2026 VECTR-CAST report on actively exploited Cisco, ScreenConnect and VMware vulnerabilities).
Why I recommend it: Good for people moving into cybersecurity who want a practitioner's read on current threats. The threat levels and forecasts are the author's own analysis, not an official CISA rating — cross-check CVEs against the CISA KEV catalog.
FinanceBuzz article by Josh Koebert, syndicated on MSN, listing nine fields it argues are shrinking: journalism, computer programming, data entry, telemarketing, photography, translation, bookkeeping, legal assistance and customer service. It cites Bureau of Labor Statistics projections — 4% fewer journalism jobs, 6% fewer programming jobs and 6% fewer bookkeeping jobs by 2034 — and points at information security analysts as a growing alternative with a 2024 median salary above $124,000.
Why I recommend it: Useful as a prompt to check your own field's BLS projection — not as career advice. Three things I would not take from it: the headline conclusion is the writer's opinion, not the BLS's; a projected national decline says nothing about whether good jobs exist in your city; and the page is packed with affiliate links to insurance and money products, which is how it earns. Look up the BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook entry for your own job title and read that instead.
