The single biggest indicator of the US tariff structure making no fucking sense is that nobody is offering a service to tell you how much you'll be paying despite doing so being a licence to print money right now and how do you fuck up capitalism that badly
There's no money in telling people how much imports are gonna cost if people can already assume: • it can change between when you buy the advice and the goods arriving • either it's available locally and you'll just buy that for ease, or it's not and you'll just have to find out
Yes, that is the joke
how could you even make such a product when that shit changes by the day
That's kind of the point, yes
I'm sure the actuaries are raking it in rn
Contracting has taught me that if the requirements are constantly changing, you're setting yourself up to fail if you start building the software. Show the client a shiny thing! Distract them with donuts, coffee, and PowerPoint slides! ANYTHING but don't build shit until they stop fucking with it.
