- I updated an npm package to publish using @npmjs.bsky.social /@github.com trusted publishing, but it took me a few goes to get it right. These are the things that I needed to do to get trusted publishing to work for me: philna.sh/blog/2026/01...
- A React app that has a useEffect that listens to the window resize event and returns whether the screen is mobile or not so that different images can be displayed? These are the lengths that React developers will go to to avoid learning about the <img> tag's sizes and srcset.
- Discovered the contact form on my website was broken and ended up learning how to set up trusted publishing to npm. So that was quite the rabbit hole of an evening.
- Hurrah for Temporal now shipping in Chrome! Better update this blog post already.
- I really enjoy speaking at conferences and trying to share what I've learned. It's really nice to be recognised by @sessionize.com for doing it quite a lot. I guess I need to get some talks accepted for 2026 now!

- Wrote a new blog post. This is the story of how I tried to add one month to a JavaScript date and discovered the result was 9 months earlier. Yes, the problem was time zones. Even though the time didn't matter. philna.sh/blog/2026/01...
- Excited to see the AI Engineer conference is coming to Melbourne next year! webdirections.org/ai-engineer/
- This might be the simplest Langflow flow I've ever built, but it's still really cool. It uses Docling to parse PDFs and return Markdown. You can choose between Docling's standard pipeline, using OCR and other models, or use a vision language model. And you get great results!
- I built a @langflow.org workflow and bookmarklet to help me summarise and categorise articles for the AI++ newsletter. It saves me time, so I thought you might like to see how I built it. www.langflow.org/blog/langflo...
- Ever wanted to build your own coding agent? I just built one in @langflow.org using 3 components and 2 MCP servers. Sure, it's no Cursor, Codex or Claude Code, but it's a start! See how to build your own here: www.langflow.org/blog/ai-codi...
- Just had a cold call from an AI career coach. It refused to coach me on how to bake a pie, even though I emphasized that it would both help with stress and improving my career. Kept it on the line for 4 minutes before the AI decided it no longer wanted to speak to me.
- Power cut on my street. I can’t prove it, but it feels like this has something to do with us-east-1.
- Hey! Did you know you can expose your Langflow flows as MCP servers? It's as easy as: 1. Create flow 2. Get MCP server details and install in MCP client 3. There is no step 3 Or in more detail: www.langflow.org/blog/build-m...
