| 16:48.17 | youtah | Trying to spread the info that, yes, you can Register to vote the same day as the Election in Utah |
| 16:48.18 | youtah | https://twitter.com/youtah/status/1059846698443333632 |
| 16:50.32 | aeryndunham | Same-day registration should be a thing everywhere |
| 16:54.55 | jlp_znc | already voted... dropped the forms off Sunday evening. |
| 16:56.50 | Migs | I can't understand any possible reason that same-day registration isn't everywhere. What's the logic? |
| 17:06.57 | aeryndunham | I am also astounded that early voting isn't everywhere |
| 17:07.07 | frostyfrog | Possibly too much hassle for those running the show? |
| 17:07.29 | jlp_znc | well, you see, if you have same-day registration, then the "undesirables" have more of a chance to vote. |
| 17:07.56 | Migs | what's the actual reason though? |
| 17:08.34 | Migs | I mean, is there an actual argument people make against it? |
| 17:08.48 | Migs | too much overhead? |
| 17:09.51 | jlp_znc | I think the only argument against it is that people might try to register to vote somewhere where they shouldn't be allowed to and there is less ability to certify their authority to vote. |
| 17:10.33 | frostyfrog | Or maybe voting twice? |
| 17:10.40 | jlp_znc | same day registration is only available in 15 states. |
| 17:10.43 | aeryndunham | I suppose, but actual cases of voting fraud are SO rare |
| 17:10.57 | jlp_znc | oh, 17 states now. |
| 17:10.59 | jlp_znc | plus DC |
| 17:11.51 | jlp_znc | oh, wait again... two states allow same day registration for early voting, but not on election day itself. |
| 17:11.57 | jlp_znc | so it is only 15. |
| 17:12.40 | aeryndunham | ooooh someone is trying to tell me I didn't report an issue |
| 17:12.53 | aeryndunham | links to the DM with multiple comments and updates that she opened on September 5 |
| 17:13.04 | jlp_znc | http://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/same-day-registration.aspx |
| 17:15.26 | jlp_znc | some states issue a provisional ballot for same day registrations and the ballot isn't counted until after the registration is verified. |

| 17:42.44 | frostyfrog | aeryndunham: oof |
| 17:43.38 | aeryndunham | I don't mind when they're like "oh yeah sorry that isn't a priority" or "we got busy" but a full "we know nothing about that" is super fun :p |
| 17:43.55 | frostyfrog | LUL |
| 17:44.06 | frostyfrog | it is fun! |
| 17:44.26 | frostyfrog | Because then you get to find evidence and say, "You were saying?" x3 |
| 17:45.11 | aeryndunham | And it's not even one of those tickets I opened that got summarily ignored; they've commented and everything |
| 17:52.47 | frostyfrog | make them feel dumb >=D |
| 17:52.48 | frostyfrog | jk jk |
| 17:53.08 | aeryndunham | Nah I'm always nice |
| 17:53.19 | aeryndunham | I vent my frustrations to strangers on the internet :p |
| 17:53.29 | frostyfrog | ye |
| 17:53.30 | jlp_znc | :) |
| 17:53.32 | frostyfrog | I am strange |
| 17:53.51 | frostyfrog | don't worry about it and you'll be fine :p |

| 21:58.34 | youtah | I feel bad rejecting merge requests sometimes |
| 21:58.51 | youtah | especially when I know they put a lot of time and effort into it |
| 21:59.10 | youtah | but it is nice to have a health conversation and discuss it as a learning opportunity |
| 22:00.04 | romanovic | youtah: is that because you are rejecting their feature or improvement in its entirety? Or are you just asking them to fix some things before they submit their request again? |
| 22:00.25 | youtah | it depends |
| 22:00.51 | youtah | in this case, it was the in it's entirety. |
| 22:01.18 | youtah | it was entire classes that weren't needed because they existed elsewhere |
| 22:01.44 | youtah | I do love the learning and education aspect of it |
| 22:02.00 | youtah | I've learned a ton myself by reviewing others code |

| 22:13.55 | romanovic | I feel lucky, haven't had to deal with pull requests from more than 4 other developers lately. I don't envy people who are trying to wrangle input from dozens or hundreds of developers |
| 22:15.17 | romanovic | I can sympathise with Linus's project management style |
