Internet archiving tool, which is currently stuck in limbo between releases because it's a big architectural overhaul and I haven't had energy/time to pick up all the mental context from where I left off https://github.com/pirate/archivebox and

slow and steady wins the race I guess...

Podcast hosting service https://wisecast.fm

That's awesome! I am actually finalizing some editing for my podcast right now and hope to launch by the end of May. I was planning to use Transistor.FM for hosting, but now will certainly consider using Wisecast to support a fellow Django maker.

Excellent! Currently, I am offering a free 60-day trial and would appreciate the support :)

I've been working on a small Django project called https://CodeSnippetSearch.net. It allows you to search through code snippets using natural language. Currently, Python, Java, Go, Php, Javascript, and Ruby programming languages are supported.

As with any cool project nowadays, CodeSnippetSearch is powered by neural networks (six in fact - one for each programming language). The project is open-sourced and you can read about the implementation details here: https://github.com/novoselrok/codesnippetsearch

Cocktail recipe and execution tracking for home enthusiasts. I started 1.5 years ago when my in-laws were visiting, the local version with good modeling and Admin input took 2 weeks.

The public, user facing data input, and production deployment, is taking the other 18 months :)

You know the saying, it is 90% done, now we only have to do the other half.

But I recently restarted. As of yesterday the app actually runs on AWS Beanstalk, although with its attached RDS. I have a coworker now that’s really into cocktails so I feel like I am building the site for him.

https://cronitor.io is built with Django. It was a side project from March 2014 to March 2020, but as of last month it’s now my full-time job!

Looks great, I think I've read about this before!

Just FYI, the CSS for your homepage appears to be intermittently 404'ing. Could be a failed release and your static manifest being out of date on one or more of your running backend processes – we've had this before with Django.
