I don't think MDMA is "legal or decriminalized" in the Czech Republic...? Sure, consumption of _anything_ is decriminalized here (you are allowed to possess only a tiny amount for your own consumption) but other than that, ow

That's exactly it, SelectMany is what in .NET corresponds to flatMap in e.g. Java. (And, unlike the parent, I don't like the narrow scope of .NET naming very much, focusing on just the list monad (a.k.a. IEnumerable).)

Well, MediaWiki has a comprehensive API, so yeah, see e.g. https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox#action... But I don't think Wikimedia Foundation wants to provide a free-to-all unlimited compute...

A big reason for obligatory codesigning and developer accounts for mobile apps has been that we would know _who_ is doing malicious things, right? So... are there lawsuits already? Will someone go to jail? Or at the very least, has the deve

I have just installed Fauxpilot < https://github.com/fauxpilot/fauxpilot > (nVidia GPU-only) and it works... OK. Still evaluating and I'm basically sceptic on the whole concept, but... let's see.

That's exactly the point of "implementation defined". The code is fine on all those compilers/architectures where the expectation is valid. It just isn't portable to those exotic/hypothetical architectures wher
