It was just the fist thing that popped out of my head. If anyone is actually interested; all they have to do is lookup "Fuzzy Wuzzy".

Is anyone else having this issue?
I am registered for the MS Build conference, and yesterday received the links to see the sessions, speakers, etc. However going to any of the links, the page loads without any content (just a header and footer).
Anyone else seeing this? I have tried chatting with the MS Build people on this, but no progress.
Would be nice to see what is happening for these sessions ahead of time. Would be even worse if I cannot even see the sessions when they start streaming...
UPDATE: tried running it under Fiddler, no errors showing, but lots of traffic for a bit.

Tried Firefox? Or a different browser?

For a period, Firefox was the safest bet to read all sorts of web pages, and it became my favorite. However, the last few years it has seriously deteriorated, and nowadays my list of sites that FF cannot handle is growing rapidly. It is still my standard browser, but I have to accept that when some other page includes e.g. Twitter refernces, if I want to see those, I have to start another browser.
I had an issue with a web mail client: The server timed out, repeatedly, over a period of more than two weeks, on three different machines, from two geographically distinct sites, using three different web browsers (FF, IE11, Edge). The support lady had a single proposal: Maybe you should switch to Chrome ... No! Edge's spying on me is bad enough, I refuse to be pressured in under Google Control just because one web server repeatedly reports timeout. The support lady gave no impression of true professional understanding; arguing about real culprit would be futile. And I abstained from explaining why I do not consider Chrome a viable spy alternative.

I have observed it too, I think it started when the problematic with https and the incorporation of TLS. Since then, the load of the pages is getting worse and worse.

No, in fact I just re-imaged my machine completely. So at this time only have Edge browser (running Chromium though).
I would be really disappointed if Microsoft was not supporting their own browser for this...

Reimagining computers is fun and you learn a lot. But you will need at least need a breadboard, a multimeter and an oscilloscope to do that, not a browser.

The bug probably made them take social distancing and isolation to a new level.

You have two edit boxes with labels on the same "line", and two lines. Do you prefer:
The label left justified, so you see:
label: [editbox] label: [editbox]
Another label: [editbox] Fourth label: [editbox]
or, the label right justified, so you see:
label: [editbox] label: [editbox]
Another label: [editbox] Fourth label: [editbox]
Is there a UI design guideline for this?

I would go with the first option.
I remember reading something a while back about how it's easier to read text when it is left aligned.
Apparently it's something to do with the eye starting at the same point.

Left justified.

Personally I prefer left adjustement and to make it more attractive visualized something like this (where "......" should be as discreet as possible, can be. e.g. a slightly different colored background for the labels):
label............. [editbox] label............. [editbox]
Another label..... [editbox] Fourth label...... [editbox]
Btw: I'don't know about any design guid about this.
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

Depends on the content. Strings left-justified, numbers right-justified.

Depends on how much the label sizes differ. Small differences, left adjusted, large differences right adjusted.
I can't remember at what difference one swaps between them but it's a balance between readability and actually seeing which label belongs to which box.

That is my immediate reaction as well.
With two lines, it doesn't make that much difference; there is no (visual) doubt which label goes to which edit field. If each column has ten or twelve entries, especially if the longest entry is at the top or bottom, it could be essential. In multi-language applications, you cannot make any assumptions about which entry is longer.
Yet I must admit that in one of my applications, I did reorganize the entries so that all the fields with short labels was placed in one column, the long ones in the other, to save screen real estate. That was an internal tool never to be used outside the company and never to be translated to other languages.

I realize how prejudiced one gets from how the question is phrased though.
If I can put the controls in a left side menu I usually stack the labels above the controls. It depends on how many controls there are of course.

First option, and with label text aligned to the text in the edit boxes rather than the controls top-or-bottom aligned
