Splendor··on ASCII Delimited Text – Not CSV or TAB delimited text
I tried to use it but one of the tools I rely on (BeyondCompare) resorts to hex comparisons when it detects these comparisons. In contrasts, it treats CSV files better than anything; letting you declare individual fields as key values, etc.

Splendor··on How Sotomayor undermined Obama’s NSA
“It may be necessary to reconsider the premise that an individual has no reasonable expectation of privacy in information voluntarily disclosed to third parties,” Sotomayor wrote in 2012

Sotomayor gets it. The Third-Party Doctrine is the cornerstone of bad privacy policy in the US.

Splendor··on FBI agent tries to copyright torture manual, inadvertently makes it public
It seems like that will be hard to come by since "the copyright office does not allow readers to take pictures or notes". All we seem to have are the rememberings of those who've been in to see it.

Splendor··on Introducing Sourcing.io
> Sourcing.io lets your team members connect Twitter, GitHub and LinkedIn accounts, allowing you to filter by candidates connected in some way to your team.

It's got to be awkward when someone at work comes and asks you to connect your social accounts to their new hiring engine. I wonder how much traction this will get.
