Anniversary of first ever computer bug - a Moth

This is well-known to be a moth-myth. This was NOT the first computer bug, nor was it when the term was coined (as the actual article indicates). Grace Hopper was just being clever in her logs.

The Jargon File debunks this; see http://catb.org/jargon/html/B/bug.html. Money quote:

[T]he use of bug to mean an industrial defect was already established in Thomas Edison's time, and a more specific and rather modern use can be found in an electrical handbook from 1896 (Hawkin's New Catechism of Electricity, Theo. Audel & Co.) which says: “The term ‘bug’ is used to a limited extent to designate any fault or trouble in the connections or working of electric apparatus.” It further notes that the term is “said to have originated in quadruplex telegraphy and have been transferred to all electric apparatus.”
