Long before modern computers existed, Ada Lovelace saw that a machine could work with symbols and not just numbers. Today, on #AdaLovelaceDay, we celebrate her and the women in STEM whose work has changed the world.
A portrait of Ada Lovelace is displayed alongside text celebrating her legacy. The text reads: "Celebrating the Legacy of Ada Lovelace. Get to know the great mind who was ahead of her time." IEEE's logo and website, ieee.org, are at the bottom.

Next time your code breaks, blame a moth. Edison coined the term “bug” in the 1870s. In 1947, Grace Hopper’s team found a moth in a Harvard Mark II relay and pasted it in the logbook to document the first-ever computer bug.
