Saw "CSP" and immediately thought of constraint satisfaction problems [0].

When I saw "CSP" I thought of Content Security Policy instead https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CSP
Me too.
Tony Hoare coined CSP in '78. I think he might have the precedent for the acronym.
That doesn't make it any less confusing in 2017
"CSP" and "sync" in one sentence leave no space for confusion.
My mind thought "Chase Sapphire Preferred".

Credit Card churning is a weird hobby.
