It's generally when someone is hinting at personal interest beyond the immediate conversation, or otherwise an overt complement where they might not normally show up. Complements are not flirting in their own right, but they can show up readily if someone is either genuinely interested or romantically interested. Hopefully, it won't be hard to parse between actual direct interest in a topic and, "hey I just want more attention from you and this topic is my in.".
