C# has a special syntax for simultaneously testing and "destructuring" a nullable value type. It is something like "if (Value b is not null = c) {", and if "c" is non-null its value is assigned to b. I've used this a dozen times but I can't remember the syntax and also I cannot search for it because Google returns nothing but stack overflow questions from 2012, which predate whatever this syntax is. Does anyone remember this?
For example, here I am trying to access field "x" from a struct "B3":

The leader of France's National Rally (RN) said police seized documents from the far-right party's headquarters on Wednesday, a raid prosecutors said was linked to a French probe into alleged illegal campaign financing. It is the latest legal trouble for the party of Marine Le Pen, the longtime standard bearer of the French far right, which has come under increasing scrutiny in recent years. FRANCE 24's James Vasina reports.

The image features a vibrant yellow flower with five large, wavy petals, each adorned with water droplets, suggesting recent rain or dew. The flower's center is a cluster of stamens, with a prominent, bulbous pistil, surrounded by a ring of yellow filaments. The petals are slightly curled at the edges, adding to the flower's delicate appearance. The flower is set against a backdrop of green leaves and branches, with a rough, gray rock visible at the bottom right, providing a natural contrast to the flower's bright color. The overall composition highlights the flower's beauty and the freshness of its surroundings.

🛰️ La semaine dernière, peu avant le désamarrage du cargo Progress MS-29, la Station a effectué une manœuvre de réorientation, un tangage de 90°.
Le cargo était amarré au point MRM2, qui est orienté au zénith (vers le haut) dans la configuration normale de l'ISS. En inclinant l'ensemble de l'ISS de 90° (autour de son axe latéral), le cargo Progress a été positionné à l'arrière (derrière) du vecteur vitesse, permettant un couloir de désamarrage propre et sûr (pour qu'il ne rentre pas après désamarrage dans la "sphère d'exclusion") et tirant parti d'une mécanique orbitale efficace pour sa trajectoire de départ. Des considérations thermiques, énergétiques et de visibilité entrent également en jeu dans la planification d’une telle manœuvre de réorientation.

As he shares a graph from G. Elliott Morris showing Trump polling underwater on all key issues, Simon Rosenberg says,
"Trump is not having the victory lap week he thought he was going to have. The mounting death toll in Texas is a searing reminder of the harms his 'more for me, less for all of you' agenda has brought to the country. The ongoing Epstein fiasco has been ugly for him in many, many ways."

Israel, through Netanyahu, his fascist collaborators, and a host of enablers (hello Canada and your national broadcaster, CBC), has turned itself from a tenuous oasis for the oppressed into a textbook humanitarian disgrace.
These are inexcusable offences against Jews and Judaism as much as they are against Palestinians.
The perpetrator's first crime is always against himself and his own humanity.

The image depicts a scene set on a large, futuristic space station or platform. In the foreground, a woman in a long blue dress stands with her hands clasped, observing the scene. To her right, a man in an orange jumpsuit with a helmet and gloves is also looking down, while a group of individuals in various attire, including robes and helmets, stand behind him, observing the activity below. The background features a massive, complex structure with a large, spherical section suspended above a platform, with several smaller spacecraft visible in the sky. The platform is populated with numerous figures, some in robes and others in casual attire, engaged in various activities. The overall color palette is muted, with shades of blue, gray, and orange, contributing to a sense of a technologically advanced, possibly dystopian setting.

The signboard is situated in an outdoor setting, with a grassy area in front and a road visible in the background. A truck and a car can be seen on the road, indicating a busy area. The sky appears overcast, suggesting a cloudy day. The signboard is supported by a metal frame with yellow poles, and the overall color scheme includes green, yellow, black, and red.

The image shows a white cat with a shaved body and a cone collar around its neck, sitting on a dark-colored surface. The cat's face is visible through the cone, displaying a grumpy expression with its mouth slightly open and tongue visible. The cat's fur is mostly white, with some areas shaved, particularly around the neck and back. The background includes a light-colored couch and a framed picture on the wall. The text "FUCK OFF" is prominently displayed at the top of the image, and "FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF" is at the bottom, both in bold, white letters with a black outline. The overall tone of the image is humorous, with the cat's expression and the text conveying a sense of annoyance.

B3? b;
and B3 is a value type such as a struct, is
if (b is B3 _b) {
// Non-null variable named _b now exists
}
However I also just in replies learned something WILD, which is if you don't remember or don't want to type the name of B3, you can just type
if (b is { } _b) {
// Non-null variable named _b now exists
}
and the compiler accepts that just fine and does the right thing. What on *earth*. C# is simply too big
