Scammers are trying to steal email credentials from employees by impersonating their organization's human resources (HR) department in phishing emails camouflaged as internal 'back to work' company memos. So I wasted all that time walking downstairs to my office?

In .NET 3.0 we introduced a GC.GetGCMemoryInfo API for library code to get memory load related things (this was used in ArrayPool for example) so it exposed things library folks wanted at the time. "The sweet sweet memories you gave-a me You can't beat the memories you gave-a me"

The UK is spinning up a new regulatory body, intended to "enforce a new code to govern the behavior of platforms that currently dominate the market." Because if anyone knows good management, it's the UK government
Too political? Or recognized for the sarcasm intended (and could probably also be said for just about any government past or present)

Italy’s Borexino detector has confirmed a decades-old theory, finding the first-ever evidence of a carbon-nitrogen-oxygen (CNO) cycle that produces neutrinos in our Sun. Because it's the dawning of the Age of Aquarius?
And here I thought 'neutrino fluxes' were just in Star Trek.

I think they'd be better off worrying about "where the sun don't shine".

If they do this properly (e.g. as a subsystem running over WSL), I don't see why it would affect core Windows all that much. They're already upgrading WSL so that it can run X-Windows applications; how difficult can it be to add a Dalvik VM that runs Android apps?
For that matter, Google already has an Android emulator that is distributed with Android Studio. Why not license it, and modify it to run over WSL?

Workplace Analytics, which is available as part of Office 365 enterprise plan as an add-on, makes use of Office 365 email and calendar metadata, including to/from data, subject lines and timestamps to create set of behavioural metrics that can be used by the managers to know what’s going on in an organization. Mine's negative for some reason

They leave out the most important metric of all, a simple "hey Mike, how are you?"
The people who this system was designed for are probably far past the point of getting an honest answer though

C#9 record and C#9 init property are really nice addition to the language. As explained in C#9 records: immutable classes, both are syntactic sugar that don’t require any change at IL level nor runtime levels. Sprinkle your own syntactic sugar in your apps
