I'm pretty surprised but I think Claude is better at "coding" and ChatGPT 5 is better at thinking about code. Maybe Claude is just too biased by context though in this limited situation.

How would you explain to someone why words are not violence?
Is mental health less important than physical health? If yes, why? If not, then why are hurtful words not equivalent to physical violence?
I think this is a missing link in my ability to prosecute my arguments about free speech.
reply
Mental health is fundamental, even more so than physical health in many cases. You can have a great body, but if your mind is in bad shape, there are thousands of people with good lives, physical health, etc., committing suicide because their mental health was on the rocks. Now, that doesn't make words physical violence. Hurting isn't the same as hitting. If we treat every opinion as violence, we end up limiting freedom of expression, which is what allows us to discuss, grow, and overcome harmful ideas instead of hiding them.

I don’t agree, words can be violence. If you damage mental health you’re left with good physical health that cannot be use.
Recovering from a physical wound can be relatively fast (excluding mutilation). Recovering from even a light mental wound can take years, decades, maybe also never.
I think the fact that people can’t value mental health as much as physical health, is partly because you can see someone bleed and you cannot easily avoid feeling empathy from your eyes. Stuff that you cannot see, and you don’t have the intelligence to imagine and empathize, can be really easily ignored.
reply
Then:
  • Is it acceptable for the state to make hurtful words illegal?
  • Is it acceptable to use physical violence to defend oneself against hurtful words?

I’d have to say no and no.
But to make no and no work in real life, we have to invest on mental health awareness and wellbeing. Both to make people generally better than what they are, and also to make people resist better against mental violence.
reply
But how would you justify the "no", and "no", when we currently accept the state making physical violence illegal, and even endorsing physical violence as a proper response to defend one's self against physical violence?
And further, if there are people who oppose government spending on mental health awareness, or people who do not acknowledge the importance of mental health, such that mental healthcare in the country never gets better, when does physical violence become justified, if ever?

Could we add an option, for example, where I can highlight a word and have some options at the top or to the left with shortcuts to add some Markdown style to that word? Would that be very difficult?

I can't wait to share with all of you what's been brewing lately. It's gonna take some time to make it inarguably better than what we have (and arguably better than everything else), and some other time to polish it until it meets our quality standards.

Other than the shortcuts, what about a toolbar that follows you? I will see how to make it work in one way or another, but I agree with your vision ^^
reply
Yes that's what I tried to highlight, an entire toolbar with buttons that follow the cursor as scrolling will be great!
These two shortcuts #693148 would also be superuseful to have

mmmh... yes but they will be used for another reason. don't worry, I'll be clearer in a dedicated post!

That would help, if in the /guide even better so it's easily reachable.

The UI is in flux. The toolbar has a bit more going on. I'm sure sox will see this and take it into consideration.

@ericfj unknowingly threw me into a rabbit hole of trying to figure out the state of the art in RISC-V freedom-tech-compatible secure enclaves, aka how to securely not use AWS Nitro Enclaves. This is interesting.
