The QWERTY truth

The QWERTY key layout was designed to address mechanical constraints of typewriters rather than typing speed, noting alternatives like Dvorak and Colemak and the social barriers to switching

Why movie robots are often silver?

The silver color for cinematic robots stems from film history, material properties, and a visual cue of "non‑humanness," not mere fashion
