For example, [normal_id_glm](https://mc-stan.org/docs/functions-reference/normal-id-glm.html), or [bernoulli_logit_glm](https://mc-stan.org/docs/functions-reference/bernoulli-logit-glm.html). These are much faster due to reduced autodiff. We may need to re-factor how our models are structured to best use these. Also, these assume...

We have a bit of this already but a few chunks are missing (especially for the discrete model). We should be doing a sort of SBC for all the combinations...

It would be nice to support true multi-level models like those in [Bambi](https://bambinos.github.io/bambi/main/notebooks/radon_example.html). However, this does not fit that nicely in the `fit(X,y)` framework. We may need to add additional...

- We should use `stan::rng_t` instead of `boost::ecuyer1988`: https://github.com/stan-dev/stan/pull/3263 - We can drop the specific dependency on `mingw32-make` on Windows: https://github.com/stan-dev/math/pull/2999

If a model is compiled with `STAN_THREADS` and uses a function such as `map_rect` or `reduce_sum`, this will lead to the model spawning multiple threads during each call to the...

## Summary There have been discussions about moving to C++17 for [a while](https://github.com/stan-dev/math/issues/1300). Stan compiles fine under `-std=c++17` since https://github.com/stan-dev/math/pull/2693, and C++17 is already used by RStan. There so far...

#1422 is failing for a reason I suspect is unrelated to the changes there so I wanted to run CI independently.
