No that aspect is fine, I’m just commenting on the placement of data function annotation so, instead of placing it on the class constructor you place it on the test function e.g @ParameterizedTest(name = "{0}") @MethodSource("things") fun `test the things`(thing: Thing)

Ah I see what you mean - this leaves the smaller point that the parameter providing function can decorate the test function itself

Right, but in the single argument case, a list (or stream) can be typed and won’t be an issue. Is the benefit then more for the n-ary case of arguments?

Watched TestBalloon presentation (www.youtube.com/watch?v=80AS...) by @olivero2.bsky.social - I like the framework overall, but I thought the parameterised testing example was contrived - did you perhaps mean the use of `Arguments.of` not being type safe?

Re-watching the brilliant “Wibbly-Wobbly, Timey-Wimey stuff” by @kevlin.bsky.social (www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdAp...) the day numbering section is sooo enjoyable. In Greek, “Monday” is “Δευτερα”, literally, “the second” :>

feels like at least part of what is happening is that a lot of people want politics to solve the "my life feels empty" problem and the populist right is directly appealing to them

My daughter was born in London also, and for a while she was as British as the hills(see what I did). Now, who the fuck knows. What’s the nationality bar anyway, if not the perfect understanding of a cultural reference? Does that then make me more British than Greek? Neither? Do I care?

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

your response to “I was raped” should not be “I was right”
4 panel comic

Panel 1:
A Purple Woman looks distraught, on the verge of breaking down. She says “that man raped me”
Orange Guy standing next to her is absent-mindedly checking his nails. He says “Wellll, I’ve always disliked him and his work.”

Panel 2:
Purple Woman begins to cry. Orange Guy adopts an incredibly smug expression and says “Guess I must just be a good judge of character”

Panel 3: 
Purple Woman dissolves into sobs. Orange  Guy notices, puts his hand on her shoulder and says “Aw”

Panel 4:
Purple Woman crumples to the floor. Orange Guy, looking bemused, asks “Are you crying because you’re jealous of how smart I am?”

I think about this interview with the distinguished philosopher Conan O'Brien a lot. I actually think this is a healthy way to live your life! www.nytimes.com/2019/01/14/a...
Is this how you want to go out, with a show that gets smaller and smaller until it’s gone?

Maybe that’s O.K. I think you have more of a problem with that than I do. [Laughs.] At this point in my career, I could go out with a grand, 21-gun salute, and climb into a rocket and the entire Supreme Court walks out and they jointly press a button, I’m shot up into the air and there’s an explosion and it’s orange and it spells, “Good night and God love.” In this culture? Two years later, it’s going to be, who’s Conan? This is going to sound grim, but eventually, all our graves go unattended.

You’re right, that does sound grim.

Sorry. Calvin Coolidge was a pretty popular president. I’ve been to his grave in Vermont. It has the presidential seal on it. Nobody was there. And by the way, I’m the only late-night host that has been to Calvin Coolidge’s grave. I think that’s what separates me from the other hosts.

I had a great conversation with Albert Brooks once. When I met him for the first time, I was kind of stammering. I said, you make movies, they live on forever. I just do these late-night shows, they get lost, they’re never seen again and who cares? And he looked at me and he said, [Albert Brooks voice] “What are you talking about? None of it matters.” None of it matters? “No, that’s the secret. In 1940, people said Clark Gable is the face of the 20th Century. Who [expletive] thinks about Clark Gable? It doesn’t matter. You’ll be forgotten. I’ll be forgotten. We’ll all be forgotten.” It’s so funny because you’d think that would depress me. I was walking on air after that.

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

I have absolutely no idea how anyone or any agency could ban recursive self-improvement. Alternately, I suggest you legislate a ban against naked pointers in programming languages, for at least that would gain you some political capital among conservatives.
