DX is developer experience (analogous to UX for user experience).
Tarpit is often used as an analogy for anything that suddenly slows you down.
Potentially a play on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_tarpit
(DX is developer experience, tarpit is used idiomatically to mean “slow/difficult thing”)
