# Long text classification in BERT

What I had in mind when we talked on Wed was item 3 in [this answer](https://stackoverflow.com/a/67123504) to the Stackoverflow question [How to use Bert for long text classification?
](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58636587/how-to-use-bert-for-long-text-classification)

This refers to https://github.com/google-research/bert/issues/27 which has a tip by Jacob Devlin (who is the inventor of BERT).
