What Is Mike Michelini Up To Now - Aug 24 - Aug 30, 2025
Last week of August, last week of "summer", I survived 10 days without my amazing wife Wendy holding down the fort (her father helped a ton though, have to admit)! I'm so brain dead from "vibe coding" but while there are so many people speaking bad about it, it is unlocking a whole new world.

This Week's Updates
Vibe Coding Progress: Each day we get better. Jonathan is asking me what apps I'm making - well, the big focus is a productivity tool for both personal and business: RegardingWork Game (game.regardingwork.com).
Have to admit, it's still buggy, so if you're willing to be a beta user, it's a tool to track your time and add a bit of social pressure. The real power is in the teams function—set up a work team and compete with each other. My daughter Maggie is even using it for her homework!

- Hamza.market: Working on making a third-party app via the API to create fun product listing tools with multiple data sources.
- Being a Dad: Been vibe coding and spending time with my kids. Barely leaving the house lately.
Thanks for watching! Feedback is welcome, and see you on the fun new now.mikesblog.com where there are prizes and more ways to engage as we vibe code that out.
