“I Gave Up on Getting Developers to Act Against Their Instincts.” Yukihiro Matsumoto, Ruby Creator

Introduction We’re thrilled that our good friend Yukihiro Matsumoto, creator of the Ruby programming language, has been able to join us at RubyRussia 2019 as a speaker for the second time, having previously spoken three years ago at RubyRussia 2016. In the time that we’ve been holding the conference — now more than ten years — Ruby has undergone a great deal of evolution, and Evrone has grown and developed alongside it. Grigory Petrov, Developer Relations at Evrone, sat down with Mr Matsumoto to hear from him first-hand about being a star, the philosophy behind Ruby’s design and evolution, and a little about Japanese life and culture. The Interview This is your second visit to Russia, the first being in 2016, and since then, the number of people attending RubyRussia has doubled. Thank you so much for your talk, I really enjoyed it, and I now know the answers to a few of the questions I was going to ask you! Grigory: I saw that people weren’t just asking you questions, but also asking for pictures with you too, and even asking for autographs — you’re a star! We developers certainly like the language, and what you’re doing for the community, but are people like this all over the world, or is this something specific to Russia? People ask to take photos everywhere: in every country and at every conference, people want to take pictures with me. But I think this is the first time anybody has asked me for an autograph! Yukihiro: As the creator of a programming language, you presumably get lots of questions, suggestions, ideas, and so on. What’s the one thing you’re asked most often? Grigory: The most popular question is: "I’m from the language X community; can’t you introduce a feature from the language X to Ruby?", or something like that. And my usual answer to these requests is… "no, I wouldn’t do that", because we have different language design and different language development policies. Yukihiro: We can’t just take some feature from language X and dump it into Ruby, although in some cases, we do of course borrow ideas from other languages such Python, JavaScript and Elixir. This question gets asked again and again, but getting a positive response to it is very rare. It’s great that you’re able to say no; I find that technologies that are “designed by the community” don’t often necessarily end up with the best results. There are so many different languages and technologies, so we can really look at the best practices and implement only the things that are a good fit. Grigory: We’ve recently seen a wave of adding gradual typing to dynamically-typed languages such as JavaScript, Python and PHP. What are your thoughts on type annotations and gradual typing? Why are they so popular? And what are your general ideas and plans for type checking in Ruby 3 and beyond? For example, Rust and Go are statically-typed languages. If the software built using them is growing pretty fast, you can end up maintaining huge codebases, potentially millions of lines of code, with hundreds of team members working on each, and in those cases, type checking is a very convenient way of detecting mismatches. Yukihiro: In contrast, with dynamically-typed languages, we have to write tests in order to avoid type mismatches in our code. As software grows, the volume of tests (and burden of writing them) grows with it, and that’s really helped to drive the recent popularity of static and gradual typing. At the same time, however, static type declaration is redundant, and with a language like Ruby, we want the benefit of static type checking without the redundancy of manual type declarations. As a Ruby community and as the Ruby language, we try to satisfy both needs at the simultaneously: we’re going to have the type information file separate from the Ruby program — the Ruby program itself doesn’t contain any static type information. Instead, a separate type information file, we call it "Ruby signature file", contains the type information about the library, Gems and your programs. We’re going to provide a tool, called the "type profiler", which can collect the type information about your software. After collecting the type information for the library and your software, the type profiler has all the information it needs about all of the classes and methods, so it can then detect type contradictions — type conflicts. You can even refine the type information in your signature file by hand to afford better type checking. In future Ruby, you’ll be able to check the types statically, to some extent — but to a very limited degree. You’ll have the traditional Ruby behaviour, which does type checking at runtime. With a "level one type checker" it's possible to find between 40-80% of type errors by using the type information available in the source code. A "level two type checker" can generate additional type information based on analysis of the code itself. With these tools, future versions of Ruby can provide static type checks without needing explicit type annotations in your code. During the talk at the conference, you’ve mentioned this, and it’s quite the idea. I’m a C/C++ developer, and so static typing is natural for me, and I always viewed types as a way of declaring my intentions, so as to help the language and tools find possible errors in the future. Grigory: Your idea is to create a system, where you write code itself, but it’s possible from that code to infer enough information to be able to spot errors without resorting explicit types, and I like the sound of that a great deal. It’s great that you conduct experiments, test ideas. What future do you see for Ruby? What way do you steer the language? Actually, I don’t steer the language or the community. I just provide technology and the community decides which way to go. At least, we have enough technology for as many domains as possible to make Ruby flexible and productive. For example, Ruby is mostly used to build web apps right now, but I’d like to see Ruby used in research, or AI and machine learning. We’re trying to make the technology usable in new domains. Yukihiro: We developers like to label and categorise things. Like, this is a sports car versus this is a family car. We label programming languages too: JavaScript is a "web language", C is a "system low-level language", C# is "for Windows UI native applications". How do you tend to categorise Ruby? Grigory: I would categorise Ruby as a productive programming language. Productivity is one of the biggest, primary goals of Ruby. I designed Ruby for humans, not for machines. Sometimes core contributors complain about the design of the language because it is difficult to implement it efficiently. Ruby’s design isn’t focused on performance first, but on productivity first. That means the implementers have a bigger challenge, but we’re excited about that challenge: we aim to make Ruby as productive for developers as possible, and, at the same time, as performant as possible. Yukihiro: With Python, we don't have multiline anonymous callables due to implementation issues. It’s good to hear that for Ruby, you and core developers are trying hard to make developers’ life easier, despite the technological challenges of the implementation. Grigory: If we talk about challenges… Imagine that you have an opportunity to travel back in time and give only one piece of advice to your younger self, at around the time you’ve started Ruby language development. What advice would you give yourself? Don’t take too much from other scripting languages. Your programming language will be the best general-purpose programming language. Features introduced just to make Ruby more comparable with scripting languages will be kind of an appendix in the future — mostly useless, until they go wrong — so it’s best not to focus too much on them. Yukihiro: In the past, there was a huge difference between "scripting" and "compiled" programming languages. Nowadays, the world has changed: between virtual machines, bytecode, and JIT compilers, the line between them is quite blurred. Grigory: During this evolution, you’ve implemented lots of changes and conducted lots of experiments with Ruby. Some were successful, some were not. What do you see as your greatest Ruby design success? What do you like the most? If I had to pick one thing, I would say blocks. A Ruby block is a quite unique, quite useful abstraction of a high-order function. It’s much simpler than in other languages. It’s restricted, but it’s convenient. Yukihiro: It’s a coincidence, but blocks are the things I like the most about Ruby. In my own talks and interviews, I say Ruby is about DSL, syntax sugar and blocks. Blocks are great. Grigory: In the languages like Swift, if the last argument is a function you can put braces around it for something like a Ruby block. There’s a proposal for a similar feature to be added to JavaScript. I’m very proud of that. Yukihiro: Yes, JavaScript can emulate blocks by passing a fat-arrow-function as the last argument, because (since ES6) it has that fat-arrow syntax for multi-line functions. Blocks are great. Meanwhile, are there things in Ruby’s design or evolution that you dislike? What would you call the biggest design failure that should be fixed, or is already fixed? Grigory: I have some. Global variables: they were useful for a "scripting language", but now they are more like an appendix. I also regret adding threads to the language, we should have had a better concurrency abstraction. My other design mistake is some objects that are needlessly mutable. For example, there is a possibility to change a time zone for the existing time object, instead of creating a new one. I regret that. Yukihiro: Yes, mutability is a tricky thing and can easily lead to errors in our source code. Grigory: Moving on from the technicalities of Ruby, how do you organize your work on the language? How does your working day look like? I’m a full-time Ruby developer. I spend half of my time thinking about the design of the future Ruby 3. The rest of the time I am working on another Ruby implementation, MRuby, along with some other projects. Yukihiro: For Ruby, the canonical Ruby implementation is done by the core contributors, and so I only need to make decisions such as "this method should behave like this", "this language feature should be like that", "the syntax like this", "the semantics are these”, and so on. I just make decisions and the other developers implement them. So, I’m half designer and half programmer. I spend about a third of my time on MRuby. I’ve checked your GitHub profile and saw lots of commits including during your flight to Russia day. Recently there were a lot of talks about developers "burning out". Do you have any free time? Any hobbies? What do you do for your well-being, in order to not burn out? Grigory: Luckily, I spend all the time on open-source software. I have no pressure from the clients. I have no bosses. I manage myself. That’s the reason I’m so relaxed at work. I have no specific deadlines besides the release date. This freedom makes me feel relaxed. That’s the one secret. The other one is that I try to spend time not related to computers and programming at all. For example, I spend time walking with my dog, petting my cat. I do some service for my local church. I spend time with my family. That time spent on my social life helps a lot. Yukihiro: Many Ruby developers from Russia like Japan as a country and enjoy Japanese culture. They watch anime, read Manga, and some of them visit Japan. As a native of Japan and a software developer, what places and experiences can you recommend to fellow developers who visit Japan? Grigory: Japan is a very diverse country. You can visit metropolitan areas like Tokyo, where it’s kind of futuristic. We have a lot of pop culture, like Manga and anime there. At the same time, we have mountains, forests and historical places, like old shrines and temples. We have beautiful cherry blossoms and the leaves. It depends on your taste and preferences, you can enjoy many things: food, nature, technology. I recommend that you enjoy the diversity of the country! Yukihiro: Is it something in Japanese culture and history that influences Ruby? Grigory: I am not sure. In Japanese, we have sentence chaining, which is similar to method chaining in Ruby, so perhaps this was influenced by the Japanese language. Japan is a wealthy country, some of us didn’t have to work so hard to sustain our lives. That allows me to work on the open-source software, which does not make money at all. We don’t sell open-source software. We can sustain our life through day jobs or from our sponsors, which can help us, including contributors, work on Ruby and to make better technology. That’s what I can think of. Yukihiro: And the last, tricky question. People often want to know what it’s like to see the world through the eyes of another person — to know what they think, and what they feel. Are there any aspects to being the language author that aren’t really obvious from outside? Grigory: The one thing is… Despite what others feel, creating the language is not really a difficult task. Computer science major students take classes for language implementation, and almost everybody that graduates can write their own programming language. Technically, it’s not that difficult. Yukihiro: At the same time, people don’t understand the nature of designing a language. Language is kind of a scaffolding of the mind, a way of structuring your thinking. It’s same to human languages, like Russian, Japanese and English. Programming languages such as Ruby, Python, JavaScript, and so on, help to develop the mind, to allow you to turn ideas into something tangible and useful. That’s the primary purpose of a programming language. I think a programming language should have a philosophy of helping our thinking, and so Ruby’s focus is on productivity and the joy of programming. Other programming languages, for example, focus instead on simplicity, performance, or something like that. Each programming language has a different philosophy and design. If you feel comfortable with Ruby’s philosophy, that means Ruby is your language. Thank you! That was Grigory Petrov and Yukihiro Matsumoto at RubyRussia 2019! Arigato! Grigory: Arigato!

Interview with Yukihiro Matsumoto: Ruby is Designed for Humans, not Machines

When Bitcoin, and by extension, blockchain, exploded onto the financial market, the world began evolving alongside the implications of what this could mean for the world. The idea of a decentralized financial system, independent of countries and politics, seems like one ridden with potential. The blockchain technology is not only applicable in the financial sector, but it can also be adopted and used in many different industries such as legal, medical and education, and already we have started to feel its reach into many of these industries. Blockchain shows incredible potential especially in modern banking but it is not easy to implement overnight as users have to be trained and upskilled to integrate it into existing systems and practices. Furthermore, governments are still reluctant to recognize cryptocurrency, and in China, crypto transactions have been branded as illegal . However, this doesn’t mean that China is not looking into the technology behind cryptocurrency, and the government has already begun using the technology to verify identities, and as recently as May, to adapt it for industrial use. since 2021 opened a blockchain research center The biggest selling point of blockchain is the level of security it affords its users, along with the detail and coherency of its records. In the banking industry, scams and blunders are the biggest threats to the system - the United States alone lost per annum due to identity fraud; with blockchain, personal information may be retained privately while still maintaining the integrity of their verification process, creating an environment that is conducive to maintaining and encouraging trust and reliability, though the main purpose of reliable identification is primed to stop preventable losses. Money laundering and tax evasion are two challenges that may also be combated against through blockchain, with the help of A.I. or standardization. reported over USD$20 billion Retail banking sectors have been investing strongly into blockchain frameworks in an attempt to reap the benefits of the technology, and even the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is policies for blockchain, but it is still a few steps away from worldwide - or at least, mainstream - integration. currently developing Currently, the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications, also known as SWIFT, is blockchain into its global payment initiatives, dipping its toes into both fiat and cryptocurrencies, and already we are seeing the benefits of blockchain, with less banking queries being processed on a daily basis. trying to implement The dissemination of blockchain in various payment solutions will only continue to grow and the modern generation will bear witness to the adoption of this technology, but will we see this growth in 2024? “There is no reason why blockchain technology shouldn’t be adopted by mainstream finance”, says Yuki Nakamura from , a Crypto-staking platform, was quoted as saying, “blockchain is far more secure, efficient, and cost-effective than conventional methods of banking. But like any industry that is being challenged with new technology, it will take time for the industry to evolve and adapt and accept. Blockchain was officially launched in 2009, but it was only in 2011 when it was widely recognized. A decade might feel like a long enough time for industries to warm up to the idea of the technology, but without implementation, it remains as foreign as a new entity.” Nakamura is confident that the long-term exposure of blockchain in the finance industry has warmed up the population and corporations to it being present in their everyday dealings, which means that we will be seeing a great deal more adoption of blockchain in 2024. Stakingy Blockchain should first be implemented as a security measure. As blockchain is capable of creating unique identifiers, it should also be an effective tool in both KYC and AML checks, ensuring that neither has an overlap. These unique identifiers would also have the ability to . But of course, no technology would be able to eliminate it completely as there are always loopholes that hackers and those with malicious intent are able to exploit. suppress fraud It is expected that the adoption of blockchain in the finance industry would be initially geared towards security, including creating a more secure database that includes individual management of private keys which means better sharing options and a higher level of security. It would also increase the integrity of information databases as all blocks in a chain must be validated before it can be edited, creating a highly incorruptible system. Mainstream adoption of blockchain in the financial sector is not that far off, as many industries are currently integrating it into their systems and processes, which we will continue to see in 2024 and beyond.

Is 2024 the Year Blockchain Technology Receives Mainstream Adoption in Finance?

Prime Minister Kishida announced his intention to develop the Web3 environment in London, UK. May 2022: : “Environmental Improvement for Web3 Promotion” item added to the government’s Framework Policy 2022. June 2022 NTT Docomo announces 600 billion yen investment in Web3 field. November 2022: : Keidanren announces Web3 promotion strategy. Nov. 2022 : Tax Reform Proposal outlines support for startups, including tax reform. Dec. 2022 As Japan’s economic strength and competitiveness have been declining for many years, the cross-border (international reach) strength of the Web3 field has the potential to greatly support the DX (digital transformation) of various industries, including the Japanese content industry, which is known as an “IP (intellectual property) powerhouse,” such as animation, manga, and games, as well as their entry into global business. One of the reasons for this is that the Japanese content industry, which is known as an “IP (intellectual property) powerhouse” such as games, has the potential to greatly support the DX (digital transformation) of various industries and their entry into global business. However, Japan is currently lagging behind other countries due to bottlenecks in the environment, such as closed institutional design based on language and other factors, and regulations that are not in line with actual conditions. In addition, many Japanese businesses have highlighted various issues such as knowledge, business idea development, corporate networks, and business human resources to promote Web3 business. Against this backdrop, CoinPost believes that the establishment of an international conference that enables international exchange and the establishment of a distribution network of information and human resources in the Web3 field is essential for the growth of the Japanese blockchain industry as a whole in the Asian market. CoinPost begins its efforts in July 2023 at the Tokyo International Forum, which will be fully equipped with a “Simultaneous Interpretation System” in holding an event where visitors will come from all over the world. Tickets are also available for companies that are considering introducing Web3 technology or entering the Web3 industry in some way.

Preface: This is a comic that contains artwork that is largely by a generative AI under my direction. Hope you all enjoy the story. Read Pt. 1 . here Relating Events on Shanzi, the Desert World Max Simian's birth planet, Tan Aerith, was a jungle rainforest world with huge expanses of verdant growth and great rivers. This is his story and here he relates how he became the Governor General of Shanzi. "Shanzi is a planet of scenic desert vistas. My name is Max Simian, and I am a certified sentient. I serve here under the imprimature of the Alliance." "It has some interesting adaptations in how structures are built there, like these Hiver dwellings." "It has lots of possibilities if you want to be alone." "The planet was discovered centuries ago by this lady's ancestors. Her name is Yuki, Yuki Shanzi actually, and she was the defacto ruler of the entire planet." "Besides the Bug Juice Yuki has quite a few small herds of these desert bovines that are native to the planet. Under Yuki and her family's stewardship the herds have prospered." "Yuki has a gift for being able to work with dogs and she raises them to mind the herds, among other tasks." "The place has some exotic sorts of species. One notable nasty are these sand snakes, this species has relatively smooth scales. And a usually fatal bite." "Another type that can move amazingly fast are these legged snakes. There is some question that they are actually lizards." "Another animal inhabitant are these sand monkeys. Yuki made protective suits for some of them." "But the Alliance didn't drop us here to enjoy the scenic vistas and explore desert biology while we entertained the native population. They sent us here because of these flying insect type critters. Should that bug me?" Max laughs heartily at his jest. "The Bugs live in these hive farms tended by the Hivers." "The Hivers use these tank truck sorts of desert tractors to collect and transport the Bug Juice." "The general surmise is that the Hivers are like the Bugs, native to the planet. Now obviously these guys haven't been driving their little yellow trucks for aeons and aeons. Somewhere along the way, ages ago, their ancestors had formed an arrangement with Yuki's ancestors. It still held to their mutual benefit." "Yuki's ancestors had a sense of value they attributed to gold, and they collected a lot of it." "Things might have continued happily, and I would not be here, except that some wayward society decided that they needed a prison colony and that Shanzi had real potential, potential that would benefit their own home world's criminal enterprise." "These guys here are the second of the two cartels the prisoners had formed here. Both cartels made their living by hijacking the Hiver tankers. Most of the Bug Juice they didn't use themselves, they shipped it off world." "Yuki's family was able, after a fashion, to keep her family safe." "The cartels shared a stronghold, a keep they had built up out in the peeks. From there they plied their trade in Bug Juice with their home planet. The Alliance is intolerant of usurpers, especially those that steal from the Alliance, and such were these guys. Your basic gang of thieves, and then things got nasty." "After a particular hijacking that resulted in a few Hiver deaths the Alliance dropped me here to correct the situation." "I was in command of a squad of Battle Apes." "And a team of Rillas. All my team members had tasted battle, real battle, and our victory would have been a certainty." "The Alliance wanted to demonstrate commitment and they even dropped a Battle Gundam for our use." "I wanted to see all my guys get home safe ya know? And the Hivers and most of Yuki's family wouldn't really want our continued presence after the action. Plus my guys mostly didn't like this duty station. So I was yakking about all of it with this Hiver and he offered up a rude and nasty solution to the entire issue. For him part of it was vendetta, he just wanted approval from the Alliance to act. So I said sure, why not?" "A couple of days later one of the loaded tankers had a breakdown on the sand road. So the Hiver crew just abandoned it. And, as might have been expected, the cartel crews took advantage of their great good fortune; a full tanker there for the simple taking. Three days later when we reconnoitered the stronghold they were all dead, slow cooking in the hot sun. We believe that the chemistry probably also took out the crew of the transit ship that came to get this shipment. We have no idea how the Hiver came up with the knowledge and skill to do this. "Yuki is still the nominal ruler of Shanzi. Now I am her consort." "I serve as Shanzi's Governor General under the imprimatur of the Alliance." "Yuki and I have a daughter, Yukimax, and she is raising a new species of dogs and studying the Bugs." "In our quarters I have a viewbie of a scene from the jungles of my home planet, Tan Aerith." "Sometimes I reflect on the comforts of life there, just watching the jungle from a comfortable perch." "Yuki and I are no longer collecting gold, it is actually relatively worthless because it has no utility. Now we are investing our part from the Bug Juice profits into negotiables that have value nearly everywhere that claims a measure of civilization. We are planning to check one of the upscale tree villages on Tan Aerith for a new situation." I hope you enjoyed this scifi comic novel. A sequel of a sort relating more about The Alliance follows. As always, Comments, Criticisms, and Suggetions are Welcome. Thank you for reading!

Max Simian 2: The Shanzi Episode

Tomie has had a significant impact on horror and pop culture, challenging traditional gender roles and stereotypes. Junji Ito Junji Ito is a Japanese manga artist and writer. Ito began drawing manga in his early 20s, and his debut work was a manga called "Tomie", published in 1987. Since then, he has created many horror series, including "Uzumaki", "Gyo", "Hellstar Remina", and "The Enigma of Amigara Fault.” Ito's works are known for his surrealism and art style, as well as the horrific themes. He often draws inspiration from his own experiences and various horror folklore. Ito is one of the best horror authors, known not just in Japan but in the world; his vision of horror is unique and devastating. Tomie Tomie is a horror story about a mysterious girl named Tomie who has the power to seduce and manipulate men, driving them to madness and extreme violence. She is immortal and can regenerate from any part of her body; if you slice her into 42 pieces, you will create 42 new Tomies. The manga has some of the most disturbing and grotesque drawings and explores very deep themes such as obsession, jealousy, desire, narcism, and female monstrosity. What Is Tomie? Tomie Kawakami is a beautiful and alluring high school student who captivates those around her. Even before her first death, Tomie already enjoyed manipulating and toying with the emotions of other people. At the beginning of the manga, Tomie is murdered by her teacher Yamamoto and dismembered by her classmates on a school trip. Each classmate is given a piece of her body to dispose of. However, her cells regenerate, and she starts haunting and killing her classmates by making them insane. Tomie appears to return in various forms, causing absolute chaos and destruction in those who encounter her. She is a supernatural entity that can never indeed be killed. Yokai and Narcissism Tomie embodies not only a traditional horror but also draws on traditional Japanese folklore about yōkai, supernatural creatures that inhabit the world alongside humans. A Yōkai is often described as having bizarre forms and creepy appearances. They have been created from the spirits of things that have been discarded or forgotten, or from natural phenomena such as mountains, rivers, or animals. Tomie has a similar structure to a Yōkai, created from the remains of the dead, with bizarre forms and a very creepy appearance. Looking from the perspective of narcissism, you can observe it is a central topic in Tomie's personality. She is defined as a beautiful girl who craves attention and admiration, leading her to engage in manipulative and often cruel behavior toward those around her. The focus of Tomie on beauty and self-obsession is a common theme in horror and is also very present in yōkai folklore. Many yōkai are said to have originally been beautiful but transformed into something monstrous, like Kuchisake-onna, Rokurokubi, Yuki-onna, and Amanojaku. In both yōkai folklore and Tomie's story, there is a tiny line between the physical and spiritual worlds, being common the return from death or taking supernatural forms. Tomie's character draws on a rich history of yōkai folklore and incorporates elements of narcissism and horror to create a compelling and unsettling story. The combination of these different influences creates a unique and memorable character that has become a staple of Japanese horror culture. Female Monstrosity and Misogyny Another two big points of view in Tomie's series are about female monstrosity and misogyny, linked with larger issues of sexism and misogyny in Japanese society. The idea of a beautiful, manipulative woman who uses her sexuality to control those around her is very popular in pop culture, especially in horror, and is often used to reinforce negative stereotypes about women. Tomie exemplifies this line, and her actions are often seen as a critique of how women are judged and devalued based on their appearance and behavior. The violent acts committed against Tomie can be seen as a reflection of the violence directed at women in society. You also can see the objectified and dehumanized of Tomie with the possibility to dismembered her body and scattered across different locations. Likewise, the fact that Tomie comes back to life after her murder can also be interpreted as a critique of the societal norms and expectations imposed on women, to conform to standards and expectations. The themes of female monstrosity and misogyny are deeply interlaced with more significant issues of sexism and misogyny in society. The Legacy Tomie has had a significant impact on horror and pop culture, challenging traditional gender roles and stereotypes. Her character's beauty is often associated with femininity and the idea of the "ideal woman", but her monstrous behavior subverts these expectations and forces audiences to confront the darker side of humanity. Making a woman a principal character and an "evil" character, made a subversion in the gender roles, particularly in a genre like horror, which has historically relied on the victimization of women as a central narrative. At the same time, Tomie's series has also been criticized for perpetuating destructive stereotypes about women. The readers argue that her depiction as a manipulative, cruel, and arrogant character plays into misogynistic ideas about women as inherently deceitful and manipulative. Additionally, her violent deaths and supernatural rebirths can reinforce toxic ideas about women's bodies. Tomie's legacy is unquestionable. She has inspired countless works of horror and has become a cultural icon in Japan and beyond. Her character's unique combination of beauty, narcissism, and monstrosity has resonated with audiences and sparked conversations about gender, power, and the nature of monstrosity in popular media. Tomie's is a story written by Junji Ito, but the meaning and effects are created by each reader because that is a masterpiece.

Tomie - The Masterpiece

Java has been around for years and is currently one of the most popular languages for developing Android apps. Java is an OOP (object-oriented programming) language that was built by Sun Microsystems in 1991. Python Python is a high-level programming language that can be used to automate various tasks, such as data analysis or web scraping. It’s also very good at handling different types of data structures, including dictionaries and lists. It is often used as a scripting language in applications such as the Python programming language, Jupyter notebook, and MATLAB. C++ C++ is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm programming language. It offers control over memory management and provides constructs that allow programmers direct access to the machine's hardware. It has become one of the most popular languages for application development for workstations, servers, and embedded systems across a wide variety of domains including finance, games, mobile software, and high-performance computing. C++ was developed as part of the GCC project in 1985 by Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Labs. It is currently the fourth most popular language according to the TIOBE index and has been used for large production software such as Firefox, Android, and Visual Studio Code among others. C# C# is a general-purpose programming language originally developed in 1970 by Dennis Ritchie. It is considered to be one of the early programming languages. In addition to implementing many core concepts of modern programming, C++ borrowed heavily from C for its syntax and preprocessing facilities. By 1977, The C Programming Language was published, which is now widely regarded as the seminal work on C. The original code was written on a PDP-11 computer and was used to control the lights in an architectural model. JavaScript JavaScript, or ECMAScript as it was originally called, is an interpreted computer programming language that is a  dynamic object-oriented language with first-class functions. It has become the scripting language for web applications and websites because of its active development on the ECMAScript standard. It was originally developed in 1995 by Brendan Eich at Netscape and Mozilla, with contributions by others. is a standard scripting language of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), an industry consortium that defines recommendations for web compatibility and accessibility, helping make web applications work better across different browsers and assistive technologies. ECMAScript PHP PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development with aspirations to be as fast as C++ and Python. Originally created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1994, PHP is now produced by The PHP Group which has over 100 developers. on staff. PHP is most commonly used in web development, but it's also widely used as a general-purpose scripting language for many other applications, including e-commerce modules and corporate web apps. The general availability of PHP along with the large number of free extensions that are available means it's possible to find virtually any functionality you may need. Ruby Ruby is an object-oriented, general-purpose programming language with a focus on simplicity and productivity. It has also been called the "programming language for the 21st century". Ruby was conceived in 1992 by Yukihiro Matsumoto in Japan and released as a beta version the following year. Matz made Ruby in C because he didn't like existing languages at the time. In 1994, Ruby was released by Japanese businessman Sir Matz Matsushita as a J2EE-compatible programming language. It quickly became popular in Japan and then internationally. By the late-1990s, Ruby hit 1.0 and began to be adopted by several companies for use in business applications for its speed and simplicity. Swift Swift is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm computer programming language developed by Apple Inc. that compiles and runs as part of iOS, OS X, watchOS, tvOS, and Linux. Swift has been dubbed "Objective C without the C" because it uses more modern programming paradigms than Objective-C. Swift was introduced in 2014 and open-sourced later that year. Swift is developed by Apple in conjunction with the open-source project Cocoa Touch and has been widely adopted, making it one of the most popular programming languages in the world. According to Apple Inc., as of September 2018, Swift is the third most used programming language on GitHub, behind only Java and C#. Scala Scala is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm programming language that runs on the JVM and .NET CLR. It has a close relationship with Java. This interoperability makes it possible to mix Java and Scala code in a single application as well as share libraries between both languages. The language is based on the concept of a statically typed, functional programming language with support for object orientation and a strong type system. It uses mutable by default but supports immutability in its strict subset (called Scala 2.8). Scala was developed by Martin Odersky, who also created the successful Java Language Specification. Go Go is an open-source programming language for the Google App Engine platform. It combines a simple, clear syntax with safety and offers type inference, automatic garbage collection, native libraries, and a small memory footprint. Go supports compile-time checking, concurrent programming, and multicore CPUs. Go is designed for building large systems that need to be robust and perform well.
