Stop stop it’s already deaaaaaad

Ya, the ol’ honeypot is probably pre-history. :) I just didn’t want anyone to think it was uniquely new to engineering.

It’s nice this is being recognized, this has been happening since ww2 with American engineers being entertained in Japan. The hostesses would be educated in airplane technological jargon and eavesdrop on their engineering conversations when they were drunk etc.

Here’s something similar, Chinese hostesses in Japan spying etc: https://www.tokyoreporter.com/japan/kyoto/chinese-hostess-club-kyoto-industrial-espionage-customers-leak-information/

Honeypot stuff is real

I would assume there are too many sociopaths/narcissists/HRppl making design decisions.

I think it’s more like China is on china’s side. If Europe wants to fight itself, and give China money, why is China going to prevent it? Also the weaker Russia gets the easier it is for China to take back the land Russia took.
