YouTube Music just got a new podcast superpower that’s been a long time coming

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-25 06:21:15

TL;DR Google Podcasts used to offer the ability to remove gaps of silence from podcasts. When Podcasts was retired, YouTube Music did not offer a similar tool. Work on a “trim silence” option for YouTube Music was spotted last year, and the feature is finally available now. Progress is supposed to mean improvement, right? While we’re no strangers to seeing Google transform one app into another, merging features in the process, it’s extremely frustrating when we lose some functionality along t

August 13, 2025・6 minute read Many software projects take a long time to compile. Sometimes that’s just due to the sheer amount of code, like in the LLVM project. But often a build is slower than it should be for dumb, fixable reasons. I’ve had the suspicion that most builds are doing dumb stuff, but I had no way to see it. So I’ve been working on a cross-platform tool to help speed up builds (you can try it, see below). It works with any build system or programming language (Not just C/C++).
