Corona is the virus type. Another example of a corona virus is sars, mers or china flu 2019. Its effects can vary of being a common cold or this will definitely kill the chain smoking uncle if he gets it. The china flu falls in the latter category + a bunch of unknown factors probably caused by the gain of function research that was done on it. All in all it is not dangerous for you as long as you don't have any pre-existing conditions.
It can also track meaningful changes. So stuff like adding comments can be filtered out. They probably looked at git activity, targeted low and meaningless code changes and went through that. Any false positive can be filtered out by hand and you are left with a list of people that need to get fired
Not like apple wasn't against corporate espionage themselves, but it was indeed a dick move. The most hilarious thing with MS was the reason why pirating XP was so easy. MS thought that they would sell a lot more business versions (practically unlimited activations per key) of XP professional than that they actually did. And generated a bunch of keys for that. This meant that guessing a key was easier than normally as there was a big chance that it was a key that sat somewhere in stock.
This was to be expected. None of the staff can make a decent cup of coffee so no wonder that they can be replaced by a machine which can do the same. The machine I have at home can make better coffee than you get at a starbucks
I said neither of those things. I said that it is deadly if you have pre-existing conditions and unknown side effects due to the gain of function research that was done on it.
