🎯 Did you know that the origin of the term “bug” in computing literally comes from an insect?
In 1947, engineers of the Harvard Mark II computer found an error in the system caused by a moth trapped between the relays of the machine. They recorded the problem in the logbook as the “first real case of a bug found”.
This episode helped popularize the word in the world of computing. The original log page, with the moth glued to it, is still preserved in a museum in the USA.
Isn't it curious how a simple insect helped define such a common term in technology? 🚀
