Don't require two Stan programs to use standalone GQs (add a flag to services to turn off GQ block)
#### Summary: This came up when @rok-cesnovar and I were discussing the PR to add standalone generated quantities to CmdStanR: Using standalone generated quantities requires the user to keep two...
Currently, the output looks like ``` > cat(unique(hmm), sep = "\n") Informational Message: The current Metropolis proposal is about to be rejected because of the following issue: Exception thrown at...
Our input mechanisms for data and inits should handle NaN and +inf and -inf values. The new JSON reader handles them for input. But the current R dump format reader,...
#### Summary: In a simple linear regression model, I'm feeding in data for which the optimal value of parameter alpha is 0.5. If I don't put bounds on the parameter,...
#### Summary: The dynamic HMC algorithm can be parallelized to run the forward and backward sweeps in independence. See for a description and a decent evaluation the thread on discourse:...
#### Summary: Implement the automatic selection between metric=dense_e and metric=diag_e as described in: https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.11916 #### Description It's not always obvious when the diagonal or dense metrics are the best. Or...
#### Summary: I was wondering how hard would be to sample in parallel from the approximate posterior from variational bayes. #### Description: In my algorithm I explore the tails of...
#### Summary: Custom C++ functions may return slightly different results when called with seemingly equivalent inputs from Stan. The problem lies in not promoting `int` to `real`. #### Description: When...
#### Summary: The `deep_copy` function is applied to right-hand sides of assignments to avoid aliasing. However, all of our array slicing makes a copy itself, so this isn't necessary. Also,...
#### Summary: The merge trailed a bunch of todo items: ``` stan/src/stan/command/stanc_helper.hpp: // TODO(martincerny) help for standalone function compilation stan/src/stan/command/stanc_helper.hpp: // TODO(martincerny) Check that the -namespace flag is not set...
