Ooh I love picnic and hippo! In the spirit of Simon's squirrel nutkin, we give
things the INATOR treatment. So when we fixed our locations section, we
called it the Locinator. And the research upgrade was the Researchinator.
We backronymed this to mean It's Now A Totally Operational Resource.
For tech kludges there are:
IIWII. (it is what it is)
and

Currently working on the UI and UX for a project coded using MVC (a bit like
MVVM) and, thrillingly, using AES-57, AES-60 and AES-X098C schemas. We’re

is nice.

Okay, I couldn't resist this call-out.
Back in the day I had a brief foray at Eastman Kodak Company before their
ill-fated attempt to move to digital.
As the TWAIN API is probably still used in Museums for digital imaging, and
while arguable there is general consensus that intended or not,
And then there are the justa acronyms (apocryphal retronyms or real):
JAVA (once upon a time, wrongly rumored by some to stand for Just
Another Vague Acronym, but it's not an acronym at all*)
JBOD (real: Just a Bunch Of Disks: multiple drives not configured as a
RAID** array)

These are great, you've brightened by day, sometimes MCN-L is TLDR.
My favourite recursive TLA is PHP (PHP Hypertext Preprocessor), but then again,

Awesome, Simon. A true unliterary masterpiece.
As long as we're gleefully slipping off the subject, how about our acronym
for the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist collection: Imps and Pimps.

It’s been a long haul; congratulations to CAA for getting this published.
Your point about who CAA represents is a good one. We need to keep in mind
that CAA also represents artists.
Just as an aside, and if it’s of help to anyone: we set our thumbnail size
policy at 400 x 400
