Registered S3 method overwritten by 'butcher': `as.character.dev_topic()`

[hfrick]

Where is this coming from?

library(tidymodels)
library(tailor)

set.seed(1)
dat <- sim_regression(200)
split <- initial_split(dat)

rf_spec <- rand_forest(mode = "regression", trees = 20)
tlr <- tailor() |> adjust_numeric_calibration(method = "linear")
rf_wflow <- workflow(outcome ~ ., rf_spec, tlr)

# set aside data for calibration
set.seed(2)
i_split <- inner_split(split, .get_split_args(split))
i_analysis_dat <- analysis(i_split)
cal_dat <- assessment(i_split)

manual_fit <- fit(rf_wflow, data = i_analysis_dat, calibration = cal_dat)

Looks like it's not workflows:

library(parsnip)
library(tailor)

set.seed(1)
dat <- modeldata::sim_regression(2000)
dat_cal <- modeldata::sim_regression(200)

rf_spec <- rand_forest(mode = "regression", trees = 20)
rf_preds <- fit(rf_spec, outcome ~ ., data = dat) |> 
  augment(new_data = dat_cal)

tlr <- tailor() |> adjust_numeric_calibration(method = "linear")

manual_fit <- fit(tlr, .data = rf_preds, outcome = outcome, estimate = .pred)
#> Registered S3 method overwritten by 'butcher':
#>   method                 from    
#>   as.character.dev_topic generics

And not tailor either. It's coming from probably:

library(probably)
#> 
#> Attaching package: 'probably'
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:base':
#> 
#>     as.factor, as.ordered

calibrator <- cal_estimate_linear(
  .data = boosting_predictions_test,
  truth = "outcome"
)
#> Registered S3 method overwritten by 'butcher':
#>   method                 from    
#>   as.character.dev_topic generics
