Big kudos to Digikey for calling out the tariff specifically.

I hope every retailer does this; it needs to be absolutely clear what a tax on the consumer this is.

@vwbusguy @grimalkina I know an engineer who was measured on patch submission regularity, so they wrote a bot that just broke their patches up into smallish chunks and dripped them out one chunk at a time. Once again, this does not improve quality.

@grimalkina This concept that somehow the best engineer is the one who commits with the highest frequency and/or volume never fails to amaze me. On the other hand, it's useful to see who falls for it.
