    No, nothing directly to do with technology. Just regular physical representation of otherwise unwritten ideas.

      Those concepts aren’t exclusive to computers. Why do you think red triangles are used in road signs, or handles are only on one side of doors that open in one direction?

        I’m confused then. People do think of technology sometimes when they think of cryptography, but where does that and things like road signs and door labels fall together aside from being a part of communication? Unless I misunderstand you, the characters on an ordinary sign are typically fully ordinary English.
