&gt; This wasn’t the first case of attributing unexpected mechanical defects to invisible pests. The popular term “bug” to describe technical glitches was used as early as 1876.<p>I always thought the term &quot;bug&quot; came from people finding a literal bug stuck in the machinery of an early computer [1], TIL that Edison was using the term in the 1800s.<p>[1] - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;education.nationalgeographic.org&#x2F;resource&#x2F;worlds-first-computer-bug&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;education.nationalgeographic.org&#x2F;resource&#x2F;worlds-fir...</a>

I distinctly remember a Rob Ager&#x2F;Collative Learning YouTube video on Gremlins. It was very enlightening on how deep the Gremlin mythology goes, but alas I can&#x27;t find it right now.<p>He does list three videos on his page. An 8-minute video, 30 minute video, and 93 minute video. You might have to buy them...<p>Even if you&#x2F;I can&#x27;t find the gremlin video, I highly recommend you watch any of Rob Ager&#x27;s videos on movies you think you already know. He does do a lot of work on Stanley Kubrick. He will insist The Shining isn&#x27;t his favorite movie, but that&#x27;s hard to believe with how much he has focused on it. Anyways, Collative Learning is an excellent rabbit hole to fall down.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.collativelearning.com&#x2F;FILMS%20reviews%20BY%20ROB%20AGER.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.collativelearning.com&#x2F;FILMS%20reviews%20BY%20ROB...</a><p>Edit: Okay I&#x27;m a doofus, on mobile I needed to scroll horizontally to find the watch links. I don&#x27;t recognize the 8-minute video or 30 minute video, so it must have been the 93 minute video that I saw.

Gremlins exist, in real life they are called weasels:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.iamexpat.ch&#x2F;expat-info&#x2F;swiss-expat-news&#x2F;furry-menace-how-weasels-cost-car-insurers-thousands-switzerland" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.iamexpat.ch&#x2F;expat-info&#x2F;swiss-expat-news&#x2F;furry-me...</a>

Interesting that the RAF and USAF both had gremlins. Did the Luftwaffe?

The articel mentions gremlins in the context of WWII but neglects to mention the animated cartoon &quot;Russian Rhapsody&quot; which I vividly remember from childhood, wherein Hitler personally flies a bomber which is disassembled in flight by gremlins:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Russian_Rhapsody_(film)" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Russian_Rhapsody_(film)</a>

&gt; Forty years ago, Hollywood made gremlins loveable—portraying them as adorable, furry creatures.<p>Did the author even watch the movie?<p>The fluffy lovable creatures are mogwai, and they transform into the not-at-all furry or loveable gremlins if fed after midnight. They arent gremlins until they transform.<p>This inaccuracy invalidates the entire “Hollywood gremlin” discrepancy that is being made for much of the article.
