Whoever thought the number of vulnerabilities would correlate to the number of patches needed to be produced? Mind blown...

At least they're fixing (some of) them?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Visual Studio Online is being rechristened as Visual Studio Codespaces. And pricing cuts are coming for all tiers as of mid-May. Changing the name is easier than explaining just what it's for
Or who really should want it.
"(An aside: Visual Studio Online originally was the name of Microsoft's DevOps hub, which ultimately was renamed to Azure DevOps.)" Naming continues to be their A-game /eyeroll.

Sure...
Fraudsters can call your bank posing as you (spoofing your phone number) and call you at the same time as if they are the bank (spoofing the bank phone number).
Certain banks will provide default info (such as your last 3 transactions) by phone because they think the fraudster is you based entirely upon phone number (since they see the spoofed your phone number when calling the bank).
The fraudster can use those 3 transactions and your spoofed number to prove he is you.
The fraudster can act like he is the bank by repeating 3 transactions to you (quite convincing) that he is seeing on your bank account -- you think it must be bank.
It's all very ugly. Hope this helps.
Conclusion
Never answer calls from bank. Just hang up or ignore. If you think it is something, get number off back of card and call bank.

Wow, thank you very very much  , did not really expected an answer.
Ok, now for a moment I'm released that this does not involve 'etan' verification used for banking stuff.
Thank you very much again!

I'm paranoid. To the point of owing a (faraday cage) wallet that blocks "hands free pin" and not having money in the bank.
I would have fallen for it, since no one can know my last three transactions. Those shouldn't be available over the phone.
And I would blame the bank; they promise to keep my "money" safe. If they loose it in any way, I'd be expecting reparations.

Anyone would; if I lend you a thousand asparagus and pay you to hold them a month, I may expect a thousand asparagus after that month ends.
If your mother (or any third party) says "cook them" and you fall short, you'd be owing me some asparagus.
After COVID, quite some banks will be short asparagus.

We’re pleased to introduce the first preview of Source Generators, a new C# compiler feature that lets C# developers inspect user code and generate new C# source files that can be added to a compilation. Why write code when you can get the compiler to do it for you?
Edit: Oh, I foresee so many ways this might end up abused.

Not sure what is going to be worse... the possible abuse? or the possible crap / missfunction messy functions that will be shipped to production?

I fully intend to abuse it. I'm going to beat it like a rented mule.

Don't beat animals 
Violate it like a parking meter instead

I wouldn't actually rent a mule in the first place, much less beat one. It's just an expression.

I'm not sure how squirting a quart of glue down the coin slot of a code generator is supposed to work? 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Like a vending machine.
€0.50 for Hello World, €1.00 for Game of Life, €1.00 for a todo list app, etc.

That's how a parking meter violates you, not how you violate a parking meter.
