that’s it. no Docker needed.
just sharing in case someone else is staring at that Docker command and wondering if they missed something obvious
you didn’t. the docs are just kinda off here.
anyway, dug around a bit and turns out - yes, you can just add the remote GitHub MCP server directly in Claude Code
here’s the claude mcp add command to add GitHub's remote MCP server
but then you go to the Claude Code guide
and it’s like: “run this Docker container locally”
wait, why?
and for tools like Cursor and VS Code, they *do* recommend using that.
which makes sense. it's nice and clean.
I was trying to add GitHub’s MCP server to Claude Code and man, the official docs make it weirdly hard
they suggest running it via Docker 🤔
which is odd because... GitHub *does* have a remote MCP server

"DevRel Without the Developer"
AI agents are already using your APIs and skipping everything else.
Pageviews, Discord pings, SDK installs - they don’t tell the full story anymore.
DevRel isn’t dead. But the old playbook is.
I made a one-click deploy template for Flask on
@digitalocean.com
I’ve got a bunch of tiny Flask/FastAPI apps I mess with, and now I can actually share them without saying - “ok so first, clone the repo…” 😀
Just click the button, and it's ready!
Repo link in the comment.
I wrote a thing! ⚡️
Hook up Cursor to your own custom-trained LLM with DigitalOcean’s GenAI Agent—super simple to set up.
Instead of getting random AI suggestions, you get your code, your way, every time.
Check out the guide to build your own.

Feel so prepped for the imminent“why” question from the 3 y/o at breakfast this morning!
I KNOW! Adding to calendar now 😊
Missed it :-/
AI is out here solving quantum physics, but can it sort my 87 tabs, close the junk, add important ones to my to-do list, and file “read later” where I’ll actually read them?
That’s the AI promise I want 😊
Oh, so you are still on Gsuite?
I am such a nerd 🙂
ha, it looks like they're rasing it even more to $14.40 per user/month starting Dec 15 🙂
@cassidoo.co do you still use and like fastmail?
I think I am ready to switch away from GSuite for my personal email at this point.
I have three emails with them (including one for my wife), and they have gone from $7 each to $12 each in less than 12 months.
What’s the best alternative for personal domain email?
Just want to say that Vienna has perhaps the best Christmas markets I have ever seen.
Absolutely magnificent, and the level of detailing is insane.
High recommend for holidays.

2.5 y/o while tucking her in last night 😘
Curious, was that alt text auto generated?
Each template is beginner-friendly, pre-configured, and skips unnecessary defaults like dock icons and app windows.
Oh, and it’s free. 🎉

Introducing the macOS Menu Bar Starter Kit: a collection of SwiftUI templates to help you skip the confusion and get straight to building.
Here’s what’s included:
1. Classic Template: A lightweight dropdown menu bar app
2. Window Template: A menu bar app w/ detachable window for more complex UI
What I really needed was a starter kit—something modern, simple, and built with SwiftUI using Apple’s recommended approach.
Since that didn’t exist, @kunalbatra.com and I decided to create one.
Even tools like ChatGPT and Claude didn’t help much—they often pointed me in the wrong direction, making things even more confusing.
There’s no “menu bar app” template in Xcode. Tutorials are outdated.
Even simple tasks, like adding a Quit button or removing the dock icon were easy enough to find
The truth is, when you’re new to something, you don’t know what you don’t know.
That’s what kept tripping me up. I had no idea what the “right” way to build menu bar apps was, and every time I searched for answers, I’d end up down endless rabbit holes.
🚀 Now available: A Simple Starter Kit for Building macOS Menu Bar Apps
I’ve been exploring macOS development for a few months now. One of the projects I worked on was PopLight, a menu bar app that monitors internet connectivity.
Building it was fun, but getting started? Not so much.
We took our 2.5 y/o to the Christmas market in Salzburg yesterday, where she discovered these soaps.
She meticulously picked up and smelled each of the 20-odd varieties before settling on these - a heart and a Euro coin.
Unwittingly, of course. Still, not a bad choice in life! 😊
Solidly at 9 while we’ve been in the road this year. No complains 😊
Also just recently discovered “stage manager” in macOS. Game changer to keep the desktop clean and tidy all day long.
