Bloomberg JS Blog
The official Bloomberg JavaScript blog - insights, tutorials, and best practices from Bloomberg's JavaScript engineering team.
Some time ago, @jonkuperman.com & @tchetwin.bsky.social had a dream for the JS engineers at Bloomberg to be more public about the cool JS work we have going on.
That dream has come true - now we have a blog platform π

Left Virgin after they left our entire street without internet for five days, but gave us daily updates that the issue would resolved βwithin hoursβ
Moved to EE (stable but slow), then to Hyperoptic (stable and blazing fast).

Really need to whip up a tool to block everyone who liked a post as well as its author. Doing it manually took ages.

And get that man with double chin
Who'll always cheat and always win,
Who washes his repulsive skin
In women's tears:
And smash his desk of polished oak
And smash his hands so used to stroke
And stop his boring dirty joke
And make him yell.
The later stanzas of Betjemanβs βSloughβ are just as appropriate as its opening βCome friendly bombsβ in this contextβ¦

I must not Tailwind
Tailwind is the style-killer
Tailwind is the little-death that brings class plethora
I'll face Tailwind
I'll permit it to pass over and through my site
And when it's gone past I'll turn the inner eye to see its code
Where Tailwind has gone there'll be nothing
Only CSS will remain

I know I told you how awesome it was to watch you effortlessly bossing the stage, but I should have also congratulated you on making it absolutely hilarious and a *really* clever way of showing how flexible GSAP is: would never have occurred to me to use it with canvasβ¦ Top dev rel-ing to boot! π

The dictionary definition of βcrinkledβ
crinkled I'krnkld |
adjective
having small surface creases or wrinkles: a skirt in crinkled fabric.
crinkle |'krkl|
verb
form into small surface creases or wrinkles: [no object]
: Rose's face crinkled in bewilderment | [with object] : he smiled boyishly, crinkling his eyes.
noun
a wrinkle or crease on the surface of something: there was a crinkle of suspicion on her forehead.
ORIGIN
late Middle English: related to Old English crincan (see cringe).
Both references are a bit obscure though, so I would probably just go with βcrinkledβ
