Weekly #35: Vibe Coding Weekends with Professor Claude

This issue covers April and May 2026.

A Month of Vibe Coding

This past month I went on a vibe-coding spree — 25.7 billion Claude Code tokens spent in total:

Almost all of those were burned across six weekends, because weekends are the only stretches I have for messing around (otherwise a 20x plan would only last me three days).

I usually have at least seven long-running tasks going at once in Claude Code, and I'm not glued to my desk the whole time — my Samsung small foldable phone is fantastic for this. I can be anywhere, watching short videos with one eye while keeping the other on the agent dashboard. The moment an agent stops, the phone catches it first; voice input keeps them moving (the ruthless boss can't let them rest):

I polished the blog a bit, added multi-language support, and shipped a few new modules:

Workouts:

A photo wall:

And a comics pipeline: I set up a workspace that locks in my own character and art style, so I only need to say one sentence to the agent each day (optionally with photos — it style-transfers and anonymizes them), and it auto-generates a 4-panel strip and publishes it ——

Sharing turned out nice too:

I also wired up analytics. The site does about 10K PV/month right now:

The App

Following up on last issue's finance app: I added quite a bit — AI voice input for transactions, OCR receipt capture, position tracking and analysis, and a family-shared ledger that took me a long while to get right.

MoneyWise is now live on iOS, Android, and macOS, and it has fully replaced MoneyWiz which I'd been paying for for years.

The whole journey from development to App Store didn't take much time — design, dev, ops, and the store-listing materials were all handled by Professor Claude.

This period I shipped 14 new immersive technical longforms. Each one is an encyclopedic deep dive, paired with rich visualizations and int…
