Seeing a lot of (technically grammatically incorrect!) phrasings like "between you and I", "for Sam and I" lately. One way to interpret: this is yet another way English-language culture is forgetting that it ever had anything to do with Latin. Same idea as https://twitter.com/VitalikButerin/status/1479817912106074119

the generation of coders grew up watching anime and it's also very present on crypto twitter so i guess that's where the japanese is coming from :)

though as far as I can tell Japanese influence on the English *language* has been minimal (okay, we can say "sushi" and "ninja" and if you're lucky "zen", woohoo). Though I would love to see counterexamples!
