Coding is like spinning plates, and before you even start you've gotta be spinning seven of them. Today's guest is Jim Bennett, the Developer Advocate at Pieces For Developers, where they’re trying to make that plate spinning act run just a little smoother.

Pieces For Developers works as a long term memory for your workstream as a developer, feeding across everything you do, allowing you to maintain flow and easily pick up where you left off after being away from your desk. If as a developer, you've ever struggled with the autocomplete style of LLMs that doesn't seem to work in a dense context, then Jim's work may interest you.

Jim's key piece of advice to DevRel's out there? Constantly evaluate and report. Don't get caught out by mismatched expectations. Know who you're reporting to and what they want. You may be doing a hundred things at once but your North star must be the thing that centers you. For Jim, it's daily active users, but for you it could be something completely different.

Be sure to listen to the episode to hear Jim's full thoughts on this!
