"Microsoft Update Causes VS Code Editor Breakage on Ubuntu"

TL;DR Summary
Microsoft's recent update to Visual Studio Code has caused issues for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS users due to a change in minimum build requirements, leading to a break in workflows for developers. The update, which automatically installed for most users, raised the minimum glibc version to 2.28, incompatible with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS's 2.27. Affected developers were caught off-guard and are now facing challenges in their work. Microsoft has suggested workarounds, including using the web client or downgrading to a previous version, while also locking heated discussions on GitHub.
