just now (369+ words) The wholesale giant claims the White House misused emergency authority and warns importers could lose refunds even if duties are ruled unlawful Costco is suing the Trump administration over its tariffs, arguing that the White House has exceeded its executive authority in instituting tariffs and that it should be entitled to a refund if the tariffs are found unconstitutional. In a lawsuit filed to the Court of International Trade last Friday, the retail giant argued the Trump administration has misused the federal law, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), it cited to impose the tariffs. In November, the supreme court heard oral arguments over Donald Trump's tariffs, and justices in the conservative-majority court appeared skeptical over the White House's arguments that the IEEPA covers Trump's tariffs. "The vehicle is the imposition of taxes on Americans, and that has always…...

5+ min ago (200+ words) We just finished submitting HexForge: The Spooky Coding Education Game for the Kiroween Hackathon (Category: Costume Contest - Haunting UI). While the game itself is fun'offering 10 JavaScript challenges in a haunted, animated environment'the real story is how we achieved a ~95% reduction in development time by strictly using Kiro's full suite of AI-powered development tools. We didn't just use it for "vibe coding"; we ran a formal Spec-Driven Development (SDD) process from start to finish. Our successful submission showcases how to integrate Kiro's advanced features for a truly structured, high-quality build. HexForge combines JavaScript learning with a sleek, atmospheric dark theme. The most critical step was adopting SDD. We replaced ad-hoc feature requests with a formal specification defined in our .kiro/specs directory. To ensure every generated component was consistent with our design, we created two critical steering files that Kiro consulted…...

9+ min ago (524+ words) Amazon Web Services on Tuesday announced three new AI agents it calls "Frontier agents, including one designed to learn how you like to work and then operate on its own for days. Each of these agents handle different tasks such as writing code, security processes like code reviews, and automating DevOps tasks such as preventing incidents when pushing new code live. Preview versions of the agents are available now. Perhaps the biggest and most interesting claim by AWS is its promise that the Frontier agent called "Kiro autonomous agent" can work on its own for days at a time. "You simply assign a complex task from the backlog and it independently figures out how to get that work done," AWS CEO Matt Garman promised when introducing the new product during his keynote at AWS re:Invent on Tuesday. "It actually…...

12+ min ago (261+ words) Moreover, life gets busy, so these things happen. In 2025 I decided it was time to revisit my projects there, one at a time. The first question I had to ask myself was simple: which projects are worth keeping maintained, and which should be archived? This article shares some general ideas that helped me to decide. Hopefully they will be useful to you too. My goal in 2015, 2020 and 2025 remains simple and straightforward: to share solutions and ideas that solve real challenges in the frontend or full-stack development world. Here are three simple steps that I find useful: Is the project still relevant? If a project scores well on relevance, scope, and usability, it is usually a good candidate to keep, polish, and improve rather than archive. Once you have decided a project is worth keeping, the next question is: how do…...

19+ min ago (396+ words) President Donald Trump imposed a flurry of tariffs earlier this year. Wholesale giant Costco has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration for a "full refund" on import duties the company says it paid this year under global tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump." The lawsuit, filed by Costco at the U.S. Court of International Trade on Nov. 28, states that Congress, not the president, has the power to impose tariffs. Trump imposed a flurry of global tariffs in April, citing the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA, which gives the president power to regulate international commerce in the event of an "unusual and extraordinary threat." On Monday, Costco filed a motion to combine its lawsuit with nearly two dozen other lawsuits previously filed by other U.S. companies challenging the legality of Trump's IEEPA tariffs. "The complaints are materially identical in allegations,…...

22+ min ago (563+ words) Costco is suing the Trump administration, seeking a full refund of the import taxes it paid under President Trump's executive orders earlier this year. The discount retailer, a big importer, wants the U.S. government to stop imposing tariffs on goods Costco brings into the country until the Supreme Court weighs in on the legality of executive orders. According to the lawsuit filed Friday with the United States Court of International Trade, Costco wants the court to declare that the president lacks authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to set tariffs, and has challenged the tariff orders as unlawful. Tariffs are taxes imposed on imported goods. Traditionally, tariffs are levied after getting congressional approval, but in February, Trump invoked a 1977 "national emergency" law " used for sanctions " to issue global tariff orders, bypassing the traditional process. The Supreme Court is now…...
