I recently bought a MacBook Pro M4 Max with 128gb of RAM, and it's quite capable of running the Qwen3 Coder Next LLM, an 80B model, and the Nemotron 3 Super model, a 120B model, with extremely good performance. I still use Claude and ChatGPT because the work I do involves writing software using Swift 6--and neither model has been trained on Swift 6 yet.

Comment Dumped Grok over this (Score -1) 67

Grok was constantly say it was doing something that it had ZERO ability to, and I kept calling it out and it kept apologizing and then immediately doing it again.

As a guy who spend 5 figures a year on Ai, the last thing I want is that. I know Claude and ChatGPT also do it, but Grok was doing it CONSTANTLY.

Such as freetaxusa. Search around. Turbotax is so lame and overpriced. Rant: we should just have some basic withholding percentage, tariffs, and then a similar basic flat percentage from all corporate revenue. No funny deductions, no net profit games, just revenue almost like a federal sales tax. IMHO if these were some reasonable level it'd be fine, we could then fund the rest on deficit spending (like we're so prone to do anyways.)

He's also a sleasebag who has been credibly accused of sexual assault by three women (and in general being a sex pest to many more). When a former friend (Jonny Robb) threatened to out him over it (it had been gnawing at him for a long time, and he was friends with some of the girls), Milton entrapped him (deliberately switching the topic to money, baiting him into asking for money to stay quiet, knowing that he was poor), then when he got Robb to ask for money, reported him into the police for extortion. Robb - his old friend - committed suicide after being released on bail.

Not defending Milton at all, but it bends the constraints of credulity to say that he "tricked' his former friend into asking for money. If he was being confronted by Robb for his sexual sins, how did he manipulate the conversation into convincing Robb to ask for money to keep quiet? Just because he was poor? That is severe mental gymnastics.
