7. A bug is
a programming error. In the old, old days, programs were simple and computers were huge. Most computer program failures were caused by (grimace) cockroaches getting into the circuitry and causing various failures as they were electrocuted and burst into flame. Hence, computer program failures became known as "bugs" ... and in those days the question was always, "Did I code it wrong, do I need to call Orkin again?"

8. That right in the days of computers like Eniac they used vaccum tubes
which created heat and attracted the bug. So they daily had to literally clean the bugs out of the computer.
