Markdown's creator weighs in on rumored Apple Notes export feature by David Uzondu The rumor mill is churning as we draw closer to WWDC2025, and one of the interesting developments being discussed is a report from 9To5Mac that claimed Apple Notes in iOS 19 iOS 26, will finally get Markdown export capabilities. This caught the attention of many, including the person who actually invented Markdown. John Gruber, the creator of Markdown, shared his thoughts on this potential new feature on his weblog. For those who don't know, Markdown, which Gruber developed back in 2004 with significant input from Aaron Swartz (RIP!), is a lightweight markup language designed for creating formatted text using a plain text editor. Its main advantage is that it is easy to read and easy to write. When the news first broke, some interpretations suggested Apple Notes would gain full Markdown support, transforming it into an application where users could directly type and see Markdown syntax, much like how specialized editors like Obsidian operate. These tools are intended for users to work directly within the Markdown framework for all their note-taking. Gruber himself indicated that he does not believe Apple Notes should become a full-fledged "Markdown editor," even as an option. He stated that such a change would be a "huge mistake." His reasoning is rooted in his original vision for Markdown and his view of Apple Notes' purpose. He reiterated that he initially designed Markdown as a "text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers" and for contexts requiring plain text file storage. He feels Apple Notes serves a different, valuable role with its current WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) rich text editing. This interface, he argues, is excellent for quickly capturing thoughts, particularly on an iPhone, and aligns with the Macintosh philosophy of user-friendliness. He pointed out that creating a syntactically incorrect markdown is trivial, whereas a malformed note should not be possible with Apple Notes. Despite his reservations about a complete Markdown overhaul for the editing experience, Gruber finds the prospect of exporting notes in Markdown format very appealing. He wrote that this specific capability "sounds awesome." He pointed out, quite rightly, that Apple Notes' current export functions are rather limited, primarily offering PDF and Pages document formats. Adding Markdown export would provide a much more flexible way for users, especially those in the "niche" he identifies with, to move their content out of Notes and into other applications. Gruber did express curiosity about how Apple might handle images embedded in notes during a Markdown export, as image handling can be a tricky aspect of Markdown. -

What? Every single app I've installed from the Microsoft Store comes from its intended developer and works perfectly fine. What apps do you install? -
By RejZoR · Posted
Microsoft Store is such a weird place filled with so much absolute garbage and with reputable apps that somehow come from questionable sources. Like, the app name is known, the images back it up but the publisher is just some weird name that's not mentioned for the apps we know. -

Wireshark 4.4.7 by Razvan Serea Wireshark is a network packet analyzer. A network packet analyzer will try to capture network packets and tries to display that packet data as detailed as possible. You could think of a network packet analyzer as a measuring device used to examine what's going on inside a network cable, just like a voltmeter is used by an electrician to examine what's going on inside an electric cable (but at a higher level, of course). In the past, such tools were either very expensive, proprietary, or both. However, with the advent of Wireshark, all that has changed. Wireshark is perhaps one of the best open source packet analyzers available today. Deep inspection of hundreds of protocols, with more being added all the time Live capture and offline analysis Standard three-pane packet browser Multi-platform: Runs on Windows, Linux, OS X, Solaris, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and many others Captured network data can be browsed via a GUI, or via the TTY-mode TShark utility The most powerful display filters in the industry Rich VoIP analysis Read/write many different capture file formats Capture files compressed with gzip can be decompressed on the fly Live data can be read from Ethernet, IEEE 802.11, PPP/HDLC, ATM, Bluetooth, USB, Token Ring, Frame Relay, FDDI, and others (depending on your platfrom) Decryption support for many protocols, including IPsec, ISAKMP, Kerberos, SNMPv3, SSL/TLS, WEP, and WPA/WPA2 Coloring rules can be applied to the packet list for quick, intuitive analysis Output can be exported to XML, PostScript®, CSV, or plain text Wireshark 4.4.7 changelog: The following vulnerabilities have been fixed wnpa-sec-2025-02 Dissection engine crash. Issue 20509. CVE-2025-5601. The following bugs have been fixed Wireshark does not correctly decode LIN "go to sleep" in TECMP and CMP. Issue 20463. Dissector bug, Protocol CIGI. Issue 20496. Green power packets are not dissected when proto_version == ZBEE_VERSION_GREEN_POWER. Issue 20497. Packet diagrams misalign or drop bitfields. Issue 20507.
