Editor's note
I put together a very mixed issue today: low-level C# with Unsafe.As, practical EF Core keyset pagination, and a solid look at trimming and Native AOT. The Azure Blob and TLS articles are especially useful if you ship cloud apps and care about both throughput and security.

Dynamically Support TLS Versions in .NET
TLS articles always matter, but the Azure Key Vault piece is the one I’d bookmark for real apps.
The trimming and Native AOT episode is timely if you’re trying to reduce size and startup time without surprises.
