A little lighthearted Friday javascript for you:

new Date("2016-08-05T23:42:11.177Z").getTime().toString(36)

I don't get the ref

"iriebrah"?

Yeah wtf is that? Even googling it leaves me scratching my head.

I believe it's supposed to be "Irie, brah", where irie is a Jamaican word closely associated with the Rastafarian movement that basically means "cool", and "brah" is a permutation of "bro".
