OK guys. Anoraks off

Why is a technical discussion "anorak"?

I think he's referring to a kind of jacket. It's Britishism, like "boot"
or "bum" or "lift" or "lorry" or "petrol"...

I know, but it's also an expression, a bit like "nerdy" in the US. It
signifies people like train spotters and people who attend star trek
conventions

I just think it doesn't apply to a technical discussion
