Off-Topic Discussion​

What’s an “off topic discussion?” After all, isn’t the topic whatever you’re discussing?

Yep, it’s certainly difficult to discuss this matter.

It’s more like the any topic discussion.

If it’s an “off topic forum” does that mean whatever the topic may be, you need to go go somewhere else?

Here’s an off topic subject. The Olympic Games is a joke.

Nope, as I said it’s really the “any topic forum”, which is clearly explained with “Talk about any subject here.”

I think it means an off-topic, like something being "odd" or not "typical."

You mean like "Do you think it's important for your underwear to match your outfit?" kinda off topic?
Because I've always been curious if other people think of this.

This is a forum for political topics fitting the sub-forums. Off-topic is topics not fitting the sub-forums.

It all stems from the initial Forum interest in Topic Modelling , OP -- I am personally much involved in this area and it is the only reason I am here wasting my time ..

Please note
So many scholars in humanities departments are turning to the tool in their research that it is sometimes described as part of the digital humanities in itself. Last fall, the NEH sponsored a workshop at Maryland which expressed concern that “the most promising work in topic modeling is being done not by humanists exploring literary or historical corpora but instead by scholars working in natural language processing and information retrieval.” There is not, it seems safe to say, another machine-learning algorithm in the world anyone would expect humanists to lead the progress of. Newcomers to the field could be forgiven for thinking that digital humanists need to topic model to prove their mettle; analog humanists could be forgiven for assuming that the computational interests of literary scholars and historians are particularly focused on the sorts of questions that topic models answer.

Frankly I am surprised you are not aware of this fun and pleasurable area . It is catching on very fast in Poland .

Always wear clean underwear because you never know when you might be involved in an accident.

Good advise, but, should my clean panties match my outfit? Try to stay on topic. lol

Best I can tell is it would be a discussion that doesn't mention Trump and/or denigrate Right wing, conservatives, Republicans, or the Southern States.

That would be fine if true.
I am speaking from personal experience here, and yes I am aware of your past employment here.
So maybe I just got bad advice?
