No one, or atleast very few, were sleeping with someone's significant other. Who wants to do that and then be a sitting duck at work where the angry bf/husband can walk in and see you any moment. When the women are ready to leave the bfs, that's when they contact the salesperson. I've seen it happen atleast 10 times, 2 to me personally. Even dated that nightmare for 2 years once.

But go ahead and label everything you misconstrued as low class.

Never mind what was misconstrued or not. The behavior I mentioned is low class.

If you feel it applies to you/your experience, whatever, but it’s not a personal jab.

Ive worked in sales for over 10 years. Incel is a weird insult for salespeople, as I've never met a group of people that sleeps around more than salespeople. I spent years selling cars even, and if you bring a gf or wife you're having trouble with to go car shopping... Odds of her later sleeping with the car salesman are not zero to put it mildly.

Nowadays, incel is synonymous with the Andrew Tate “top g”/alpha sex obsession. Backwards? Definitely, but more symbolic of the arrested development/lack of maturity than the lack of sex.

Sleeping with others’ significant others, or actively trying to/bragging about it is a perfect example. Low-class behavior that will get you props from low-class folks.

There’s a nice visual interactive showcasing LOESS Regression toward the bottom of this article about the bias variance trade off: https://mlu-explain.github.io/bias-variance/

Not shocked to see that module 0, machine learning, is 1. Optional and 2. Just a few YouTube videos.

It seems like most people I see billing themselves as an “AGI researcher” or discussing alignment on Twitter (or irl in SF) have no actual background in AI/ML.

I went to a top university. Everyone I know from it who became a VC wasn’t impressive, above-average, or even average in some cases. However, they were extremely money obsessed.

But not the right-leaning newspapers? News flash (no pun intended): they’re all the same.

If anon334455 didn't want to leave a comment, anon334455 didn't have to.

What's the point of anon334455 commenting except to warn others to be careful?

Catharsis, ego, etc.

Created a new account to warn everyone to be more aware around street corners. I once tried to catch a train so I rode a scooter on the sidewalk which I normally don't. Seeing no cars, I didn't slow too much at a street corner, and ran into someone. Luckily the top speed on the scooter was 15mph and I slowed to probably 13mph, but still, the force was too much and the person failed pretty hard. I swear to never do that again. Please pay extra care around street corners, and tell your kids to do so.

Of course the type of person to ride a scooter on the sidewalk and hit someone will spin it as a lesson to others. It’s too bad you weren’t sued so you could learn to accept so e responsibility.

Everything on blind is completely unsubstantiated, doubly so if it’s a, “I heard from…” post. But still, I wouldn’t be surprised to see this come true.
