I want to setup a server where I can review and discuss software engineering and cybersecurity papers and tools with like minded folks. I am looking at https://bookwyrm.social as a potential candidate. Is there something like this already available?

I feel like I am missing something very basic in Mac Ventura. Why am I unable to sort my files alphabetically? I have tried every option there is as suggested by google and stackoverflow answers, and I certainly am not using groups. #macos #userhostile

I really wish #Zotero, and several other programs will just let me type in #markdown, and not automatically format the text. I do not want the particular changes in font and color with auto-formating that these programs provide, and I am really happy with plaintext and unadorned markdown. To make matters worse, when I copy these formatted text elsewhere, the original markdown is completely stripped.

Why does this have to be so user-hostile?  The default paste when copying formatted text should be to match the destination formatting. Not the source formatting, and paste is one of the most important functionalities in modern word processing. I wish they would provide at least some option to change these short cuts #microsoft #msword #macos #userhostile
