Awesome. Can you create a neutral net that arbitrarily closes questions as off topic or non constructive? ;)

It’s something I’m interested in! Unfortunately I’ve come to the conclusion that upvotes on Stackoverflow aren’t correlated with question content (or I’m not skilled enough to be able to differentiate between “good” and “bad” questions). Check out the linked write up for more detailed info.

I think the original comment is being sarcastic and suggesting that the actual humans that close discussions and mark them as "off topic" don't understand the question and perform these actions at random. This is a sentiment shared by many who don't "live" in those types of forums.

Oh, great, now I know how my clueless questions look like to a knowledgeable person! Example:

>"I need to create an image from a imported wav file (for a user - friendly format find enough header for the cookie). I looked for a solution, but that didn't work either."

"View from View to View, Need to open this new View in View" https://stackroboflow.com/#!/question/4781 A common problem for everyone, i'm sure.

"I come from a C # background, this is my first Silverlight project, but I'm new to Windows."

Now that is comedy!

I was cycling through some answers, when suddenly the following, completely unrelated text shows up in a random code block:
