Core Competency Puns

I'm curious how other people have dealt with something like this happening, it's got to be pretty common.

For most of my life, I've listened to and produced a lot of minimal abstract electronic music. I knew a bit of music theory, enough to do the kind of modal harmony common to a lot of electronic music, could sort of play keyboards, but mostly worked with generative / algorithmic sequencing and focused on sound design primarily.

Well, over time I got into Downtempo/Chill and Lounge Music, then Jazz and Jazz-influenced things like Bossa Nova, Exotica, "groovy" soundtrack music, etc. I also learned how to play keyboards much better, and a shit-ton of music theory over the years. But I don't play nearly well enough that I'm ever going to play Jazz (I'm primarily a composer/producer anyway.)
I'm not really "stuck," I currently motivate myself around working with music theory concepts I find interesting like non-functional harmony, but it feels a bit weird to have many, many years of music experience but find the music I'm listening to completely opaque as far as the idea of actually making some myself goes. I guess the problem is I'm not really into making "abstract," "cold," "terse," "challenging," or whatever other adjectives would be used to describe the kind of stuff I used to go for anymore, but am at a loss as to how to do "appealing," "groovy," and "inviting."

Every coach or gym teacher should read a book on running technique (i.e., pose method) and teach young athletes how to run before anything else.

Correct running reduces injuries most importantly, but also less fatigue at greater distances. It can help with short bursts as well because trained runners are always on their toes.

And it’s a life long lesson

I had coaches in every sport growing up, I ran cross country and track, and 30 years later a running shoe salesman tells me I’m running the wrong way (on my heels). I read the book he suggested, changed my running method and it’s made a huge difference.

I mean I get it comes naturally for some, but others need the instruction

This essay critically analyses the link between a firm’s core competencies and achievement of competitive advantage. The theoretical link is explored by choosing Dell as an example to evaluate theory and practice gap..

I have seen a lot of comments of the form:

"You only need the absolute basics of SQL. You will learn all the things along your job"

And there was an professor who said something like this:

"To have a profound knowledge about (scalable) databases with their architecture/design is very high on the list of core competencies every cs major should have. It will not only help you working with databases but basically in every other field."

① Safety capability

DFWallet will open all the core random number values that are used to ensure fairness during operation on the platform, and fully achieve the openness and transparency of core data. Compared with the server-side data manipulation in the traditional platform, DFWallet uses the blockchain decentralized data encryption channel to transmit, so as to achieve true security and fairness. At the same time, DFWallet outputs the digital assets in the platform to the blockchain, and discloses its integrity and uniqueness to realize the blockization and security of users’ digital assets.

② Security protection based on cryptography

DFWallet uses private key security. Only need the user to enter the wallet address,you can conduct transactions, transfers and other behaviors through transfers. The entire transaction process does not require the user to provide any private keys and passwords, and no user account sensitive information will remain on your mobile phone or browser, and it will not be spread on the network to achieve the best security protection status. Since its creation, DFWallet has always put security in the first place in the product, and has established a complete set of blocks from local storage of private keysto multiple encryption algorithms, to self-developed algorithms to ensure private key security, cold wallets, and observation wallets. Chain security scheme. In order to protect the security of the private key,the DFWallet team has developed an encryption algorithm by itself and stored it locally on the user device after multiple encryption. In order to support permanent encryption, a double isolation strategy is adopted, that is, the password and the private key are locally isolated. The two are in the encryption algorithm. It is completely different from the strategy. At the same time, it supports biometrics, encryption factor obfuscation and other methods for identification, to ensure the user’s information security to the greatest extent, and escort the user’s digital assets.

③ Experience fluency

DFWallet is developed based on blockchain technology. The platform team gives full play to its rich experience in the field of platform construction and adopts a “deep coupling” method to process core data through smart contracts on the blockchain. The two are seamless Calling and combining ha

I remember when I was doing OCS that we had to pass the overall case study by getting a scaled score of 80 out of 150 while also being proficient in all the areas that they are testing us on and we will fail even if we get above 80 while not being proficient in one of the areas. Have they changed that and now we can we pass the case study if we get a score of 80 without getting the proficient mark in 1 or 2 activities?

I posted this on the BU SDN thread too.

My question is:

So, my primary just got verified the other day, and I am finishing up my secondary to BU, and I had a quick question about the core competency part. I am non-traditional applicant who was a humanities major, and I have lots of credits. If I just list my humanities courses, it is over the 600 character limit, even with judicious use of abbreviations and cutting a few out. Am I expected to be able to list all my courses? Or did people only put some of them? I was fine listing everything for the other sections, even in Biology, which I basically have done a second major in.

I also did a research paper on a humanities topic, and I wasn't sure if I should cut even more courses out, in order to list it, since it isn't mentioned anywhere else in my application.

Anyone have any thoughts? Was anyone else not able to list all their courses?

Thanks!

Edited last question.

I'm a founding partner of a Cloud and DevOps services company. My associate and I started as tech guys in consulting companies, then freelancers, then business owners "by accident". The company is 5 years old, we've been growing, we worked with a few dozens of companies, we have almost ten stable clients, 25 engineers working with us now.

In the last 2 years, we started to have formal marketing efforts. Previously we've been growing by just word of mouth. We worked with 3/4 marketing consultants, with no results yet. Some notes from my experience:

• They've been focusing on just advertising. We've never had our target market, our value proposition, and our services properly defined. We haven't found someone to help us to fix this properly.
• We started to fix this 3 months ago because I've started to educate myself. I had no idea about the target market, value proposition, etc. I know how to solve technical problems only.
• I would have expected the consultants to tell me: "if you do not have this properly defined, any inbound or outbound strategy will be useless".
• It would have been great to have some consultant to define our strategy, not just ads.
• Now we started to work with marketing as a core competency, aligning the target market, value proposition, etc across the company. Not only to be BS in the ads or the website.
• Looks like there are too many technical people in the marketing world, but there is a lack of strategists. Like in the IT world.

Thoughts?

Do you have recommendations to continue my education? I think we found a good marketing guy now, but we still need to learn a lot of things together.

In this AMA, we will introduce in detail Jasmy’s business model and core competencies.

NO.1 Bittrex & Jasmy Q&A

Bittrex Global: Please tell us a little bit about yourself.

Hiroshi Harada: Hello, I’m Hiroshi Harada, CFO of Jasmy. I took on the role of CFO of the Company in January 2020. I am responsible for accounting, finance and tax, as well as IR operations. Kunitake Ando is the CEO of Jasmy and has served as President and COO of Sony Corporation, and President and COO of Sony Engineering and Manufacturing America (SEMA).

Bittrex Global: Can you tell us briefly about Jasmy?

Hiroshi Harada: We are an IoT platform company on a mission to provide the infrastructure which allows anybody to use data safely and securely. We are currently developing and providing the “Jasmy Platform” to achieve this. The Jasmy Platform aims to regain data sovereignty for each individual so that everyone can use his or her data safely and securely. To achieve this, we have combined Blockchain and IoT technology to provide the optimal platform solution for customers around the world, and across industries.

Bittrex Global: What was the motivation for starting this project?

Hiroshi Harada: Our aim is to democratize data. Amidst the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the number of IoT devices is expected to increase dramatically, however, behind the convenience of life, there are always security risks. Security threats such as identity theft and hacking are global issues. In addition, we increasingly find our personal information like purchases, location, website and video viewing history are being used inappropriately by platform companies. Our concept of data democracy is threefold:

1. Store and manage your personal data in a safe and secure way

2. Manage and control your personal devices safely and securely

3. Safe and secure usage of personal data under clear rules

In order to build a “new information age based on consumers” in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, we aim to achieve “data democracy” using our original concept, the IoT and blockchain technology to manage personal information according to the user’s wishes. We’re a small company at the moment, but we have big ambitions.

Bittrex Global: Are there any major milestones for Jasmy this year?

Hiroshi Harada: The first is the commercialization of our platform services. So far, most of the demo testings have already been done by the companies that will be using our platform, and

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has experience into getting to ST3 training using the alternative certificate of core competencies?
