and still getting better. i think they updated it today to make the 'hide completed podcasts' option sticky between sessions. a day after they announced the end of the app.

theyre folding it into youtube music, which somehow STILL isnt at feature parity with the goog play music app from 2011 and only keeps getting more annoying.

rip another useful app with a clean interface being rolled into the youtube garbage heap

i download podcast mp3's manually from the particular podcast website and play them in a normal-rear end music player

i only listen to like 2 podcasts though and they barely update more than once or twice a month so it's fine

so im hearing reports that this year the grace hopper conference, meant to celebrate women and nonbinary people in tech, is somehow full of undergraduate men who are pushing, shoving, cutting in line, etc to get the chance to speak to recruiters. there are videos of hordes of very male presenting dudes waving resumes at recruiters, not a woman in sight

probably doesnt mean anything about the state of the tech industry :allears:

there's councils, there's events [they're a huge sponsor of the grace hopper conference] there's internship programs, targeted recruiting, etc. and while my friend personally got dozens of women into google net net their recruiting funnel is still 95% top50bscs dudes
