Techies are interested in Japanese culture, for the simple reasons, techies are hungry to know more and understand new things, and because they see a lot common interests with Japan, and moreover, things that bring similar but yet novel developments, these techies feel japan brings something new to be discovered. Yet, they feel like they can relate to it, like they do in the West. Lets look at history, even before world war 1, the Japanese government was developing an inspired European military strategy, more and more in fact till well we know what happened in WW2, it's not to far from the Napoleons, and English rule for example. Now this is the interesting thing, Japan did not just acquire western technology and throwed it away, they actually culturally integrated it, but they used it to their advantage even way before the culture shocks of today, and by doing that, well they excelled in it. The Japanese culture since the 60s and more so today has had a fusion of cultures, which today the young generation of Japan, feel much more Americanized and westernized. As the youth of Japan, today is more and more Americanized,they also feel partially like they are missing out, because so much of what they like comes from America, or other western countries. Japanese techies are as curious as the western techies, why we share the mix. Whats happening in the western world? Well the same thing is happening On the opposite side, here as well in the western world, we feel we are missing out on new and interesting things, which go hand in hand with what techies or other non techies like. As the Japanese culture has brought commonality and newness to many industries, think products such walkman (that device even blue Steve Jobs mind), think anime's(stuff that makes physicist dream big), think ruby(programming), think videogames(biggest entertainment industry). And today, science and many more areas of expertise, share a lot of curiosity and interests with the western world and the rest of the globalized world. I would say this is due to simple reason that the Japanese culture has merged with the western culture to some point and that produces very interesting stuff, mixes are always very interesting and unique. So to close my thoughts, I would say the world is in a better place, because of this relationship we have between the West and the East, and we are hopefully moving towards a unified, peaceful and interesting human civilization type 2, referencing Kardashev Scale. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale
