Requires a direct connection to the monitored JVM this ends up limiting usage to development environments in most cases.Good for tracking CPU usage, a Java profiler usually provides a CPU sampling feature to track and aggregate CPU time by class and method to help zero in on hot spots.The ability to manually run garbage collection and then review memory consumption can easily shine a spotlight on classes and processes that are holding on to memory in error. Great for tracking down memory leaks, standard profilers detail out all memory usage by the JVM and which classes/objects are responsible.This allows a developer to dive into the call structure at whatever angle they choose. JVM profilers will track all method calls and memory usage. This depends on the type of debugging task.

Others will have effects that activate on the next shot or for several more shots one shows the ball's path, including rebounds, while another will extend the length of the ball catcher. Some activate immediately one causes a second ball to be generated from the green peg when struck. Each of the Peggle Masters has a unique special ability that is activated when the player strikes one of the two randomly selected green pegs on the board.

Pegs light up when hit, and once the ball either falls through the bottom of the screen or is caught by the ball catcher that moves back and forth along the bottom in a fixed manner, the pegs will be removed. The goal of each level is to clear the board of the twenty-five random pegs that are turned orange at the start of the level, by using a ball launcher located at the top center of the screen to strike one or more of the pegs. Each level features an arrangement of approximately one hundred blue "pegs" positioned to correspond with the level's background picture, inside of three walls on the top and sides (leaving the bottom opened), along with other fixed and moving features. Within the game's main "Adventure" mode, Peggle is divided into fifty-five levels. Screenshot of a typical Peggle level in the Xbox Live Arcade's "Peg Party" mode.

Special powers associated with a diverse of cartoon "Peggle Masters" can be activated to aid the player in this task. Inspired by pachinko and bagatelle, each level of Peggle challenges the player to shoot a limited supply of balls at a field of colored pegs to clear out specifically marked pegs while attempting to achieve a high score through skilled shot planning.

Netflix has been advertising for a head of audio and podcasts since at least March, someone who can shape “the vision and implementation for Netflix’s growth in the podcast space,” according to a posting online. Like podcasts, these efforts have largely been a marketing effort to drive attention to shows and films, but they raise the potential for future revenue streams.įor now, podcasts sit firmly within Netflix’s marketing division. The company also has been turning its hit shows like “Stranger Things” into video games. Netflix hasn’t diversified its business areas beyond its core streaming platform, although it has dabbled in merchandise, consumer products and publishing, according to Bloomberg. The company aims to have 20% of the listening on its service be non-music. ![]() “A big priority for many buyers, including Netflix, is incubating IP,” Hurwitz said.Ĭompany Town Dawn Ostroff’s plan to turn Spotify into the ultimate podcast hubĭawn Ostroff, Spotify’s chief content officer, says she plans on making hundreds of original podcast series next year as part of a strategy to expand the streaming platform’s podcast offerings.

Such audio programs include the Gimlet Media thriller “Homecoming,” that later became a series on Amazon Prime Video starring Julia Roberts and the L.A. Podcasts have become a popular way for creators to inexpensively test out ideas, creating new intellectual property that can later be developed into TV shows or movies. In 2019, TNT and podcast studio Cadence13 launched “Root of Evil: The True Story of the Hodel Family and the Black Dahlia,” a companion to the TV series “I Am the Night.” Earlier this year, Apple TV+ launched a companion podcast for its series “For All Mankind” featuring discussions with people who work on the show. Netflix’s rivals have similar efforts around promotional podcasts. About 80 million Americans listen to podcasts weekly, up 17% from last year, according to a survey by Edison Research and Triton Digital. Podcasts can be an effective way to build marketing buzz for shows. The investment in audio can pay dividends. So far, Netflix has used mostly outside producers to make its podcasts, and it taking pitches for new show ideas, several people familiar with the matter said. The show covers a wide range of topics, from colorism to body image. The most popular podcasts so far are spinoffs such as “You Can’t Make This Up,” which digs into the real stories behind Netflix’s true crime films and series and “Okay, Now Listen,” a biweekly podcast under the company’s Strong Black Lead brand hosted by Scottie Beam and Sylvia Obell. The audio push builds on Netflix’s existing library of about 30 podcasts, which are primarily tied to the promotion of popular TV shows and movies such as “The Crown” and “The Irishman.” The streamer even has a podcast for its jobs page, called “We Are Netflix,” that features employee accounts about life at the company.

After the breakup, McCartney drove down to visit Cynthia and her son Julian at their home and he wrote what would later become the ballad of “Hey Jude” in the car while driving. In 1968, John Lennon and his wife Cynthia separated because John was caught having an affair with Yoko Ono. This joyous song’s origins are steeped in loss, heartbreak, and sadness.

No other instrument since has been able to combine the range and dynamic power like the piano does. ![]() Foot pedals allow pianists to control the dynamics of what they’re playing, and this is what makes the piano a unique instrument.

As a result, most people don’t choose to eat tenrecs – although they can. The meat can also be hard to prepare, especially because of their sharp quills. This means you’d have to hunt a tenrec yourself, as there’s no store where their meat can be bought. Tenrec meat can be hard to access, however. While it’s not common, some people can and do eat tenrecs! These quills can grow to be around 17 mm long. This helps when they curl into a ball, as predators will only be able to reach these sharp points rather than the tenrec itself. Like porcupines, some species of tenrec have a backside full of sharp and dangerous quills. They’re also only a few centimeters long! That makes them the same weight as half of a poker chip! If you’ve never held a poker chip, 5 grams is also comparable to a sheet of paper. The smallest tenrec weighs less than 5 grams.

Here, they snack on a variety of water animals, including tadpoles. They’re nocturnal like other tenrec species, and they’ll spend their nights in streams around the island.

However, as part of the Afrotheria group, they’re also related to elephants and sea cows. The tenrec is most closely related to the golden mole. Instead, these similarities come from convergent evolution, which means two animals evolved the same features at the same time despite being different species. They’re related to elephants!ĭespite looking like a variety of other small mammals, like opossums and hedgehogs, tenrecs actually aren’t closely related to them. Tenrecs are pregnant for around two months, and their babies are nearly fully dependent on their mother for their first month, much like some species of marsupials. ![]() There are 31 species total included in the tenrec family, each found only on Madagascar or the surrounding islands. Instead, they are referred to only as such (i.e., “female tenrec”, “tenrec baby). Unlike some other species, there are no names to differentiate between male, female, and infant tenrecs. ![]() However, they are most common in humid forests. Just as they can have various appearance, the tenrec can also be found in a variety of habitats, including different types of forests. They can even resemble marsupials like the opossum! And, because of convergent evolution that has led different tenrec specimen to evolve at the same time as other small mammals, they often resemble everything from hedgehogs to shrews to rats. These small mammals are endemic to the island of Madagascar.ĭespite all being in the same family, tenrecs are a diverse animal with a variety of differences. The name tenrec refers to any species in the family Tenrecidae. The word tenrec comes Malagasy word tàndraka, which is related to the Malay word landak “porcupine”. They are nocturnal omnivores and enjoy a variety of plants, insects, and eggs. The tenrec is a small mammal endemic (found natively only in one area) to Madagascar. ![]() ![]() ![]() That doesn’t mean you have to spend hours in the sun getting burnt, or looking like a lobster.
