I'm thinking of writing an app to manage ticketing and events in Europe. There's Eventbrite but it mostly for larger cities instead of mid-sized ones. I think there could be a niche for cheaper alternatives especially since student societies get charged like 2.50 euros on top of a 10 euro ticket.

Also, writing a Masters thesis on area-level and individual-level predictors of breast cancer... so a lot of applied ML.

I'm right now working on the Managed Postgres offering for our European Serverless cloud provider, https://molnett.com/. We're building it around Neon and are happy with it so far, but are stumbling upon unforeseen issues like query modes (Thank you Pgx for not being compatible by default with PGBouncer).

Hope to launch it soon!

I’m vibe coding https://vespera.guide, a travel-planning tool that blends AI-driven suggestions with real-time re-planning—aimed especially at people who want to get inspiration and stay organised in their trip planning. Think of it like a curated jumpstart for itineraries, but still flexible enough to keep spontaneity.

I’ve been mostly been getting all my shit out of various clouds and trying to get more things offline where I can control the tenancy, risk and cost.

I'm working on a drop-in replacement for Django admin with better UI/UX and useful features like custom forms that Django Admin lacks.

I'm working on OnlineOrNot (https://onlineornot.com), a tool for getting an alert when your team vibe-codes your product offline. Just hit 4 years of running the business.

Currently adding the ability to pause checks on a schedule (for when you have scheduled maintenance on your DB and don't want alerts during that time).

I'm working on https://ad-si.github.io/LuaCAD/

LuaCAD is a scripting library which uses OpenSCAD as engine to create 2D and 3D models. The OpenSCAD language itself is quite limited and has several issues and Lua is much better suited for the job!

So if you're interested in programmatic CAD, please check it out!

A 3D printable HP Voyager style clone shell, based on my 12c Platinum, Internet photos and lots of eyeballing. It was on the back burner for a while, but I'm moving on to something else. STEP file available publicly, no electrical work had been done.

I had an idea to screen the YouTube videos that kids watch through a suitable LLM to assess whether the content was child friendly. There’s an emerging issue with insidious messaging / themes creeping into child-focused content that looks completely innocent on the surface, and I wondered if the current generation of LLMs can pick up on this. (Initial tests seem encouraging.)
