Music of XX century is rather a broad subject, but I assume - from your question - you are looking for popular music genres like pop, rock, hiphop, etc.
In fact, most of this music has been as much a cultural phenomenon and and a statement of a generation, as it was... music. Not being rude to individual artists, who were at times very talented, a lot of this music is musically rather simplistic and doesn't require any preparation, but a cultural context. Granted your film-literature preferences, a good territory to start explorations from would be watch a few music movies, like the history of the Doors etc. that could give you the context needed and you are all set for many months of listening. But is all largely about youthful energy, about love, a man vs society, about dance and drugs. So - if you are not too young anymore - it can be a bit boring ;)
One exception would be jazz, that is a bit more complex to grasp, but again - you have a good series from Ken Burns to start with. That being said, to enjoy jazz truly in it's more complex genres, I would argue at least certain musical background is beneficial, maybe some youtube talks etc.
Classical music... well this is a true ocean. Just Beethoven piano sonatas could be a passion for a year or two. You're talking about XX century, and there's been great classical music published in that period! But probably - if you go that route - you really want to start with renaissance and baroque. Here a lot of great introductory courses are available. If you don't have musical background, Robert Greenberg series on Great Courses is really an entertaining and valuable intro.
And then there is world music, ranging from African roots bands playing drums to Indian classical music.
Now - having all that said - my personal perspective is that to enjoy music, you want to enjoy music. What I mean by that, is that you might want to dance, sing, play! Even a simple baroque dance, played by your self, could be way more gratifying that latest dull pop hit. If you really want to enjoy music and not just be a pop music encyclopedia who knows names of The Beatles - you should do one of these!
In combinatorial optimization, the basic principle is is always: every primal, has a dual. That is, minimazing some expressions, means maximizing the other. Primal-dual would also - I feel - fit better to the principle, as described in this article.
That would be one of the options - I have used Primavera in one of my previous jobs. But I assume from the question that the company has decided to use JIRA for that purposes.
If the requirement is coming from accounting (qualification of spend as capex) there’s no way to push back, but it also doesn’t mean you need to follow the exact process of bigger company. You can negotiate minimum amount of documentation that for legal reasons your team needs to track in JIRA and do just that. Good luck!
This post confuses many things but firstly it doesn’t properly talk about Product Management. PM is customer centric and marketing heavy discipline and just knowing how to code and good intentions of devs may not work on competitive market. Secondly Scrum is project management framework and says nothing about software development practices and leaves them completely to the judgment of the team (including developers and PO because they collaborate heavily in Scrum).
Sure, computers can be very helpful to master certain skills like learning to read music or maybe mastering some aspect of technique. But to decompose music into aspects like tone, pace and so on is a huge oversimplification. And by learning to play piano I assume one want's to play music. Playing piano again in my view is about hearing, you have to play it in mind, make it sing, and only then bring that to the instrument. The instrument is just a tool.
Piano is not about mechanics. Everyone can do that. Piano is not about playing. It’s about hearing! And no app can replace professional human being with ability to hear these tiny nuances. Sorry to say that but if you want to play music, not piano, get a teacher.
