Context
You are a software engineer introducing a new technique and planning a public blog post to drive developer adoption. You need to gather inputs from your internal team, craft credible messaging, and set up responsible benchmarking and usability evaluation.
Tasks
-
Discovery: What initial questions would you ask the team before drafting the blog post?
-
Adoption: How would you convince a developer audience to adopt the technique?
-
Beyond latency/accuracy: What other product aspects do developers care about?
-
Usability: Explain how usability factors in; provide concrete usability dimensions and metrics (e.g., effectiveness, efficiency, satisfaction, onboarding time, productivity, reliability, adoption, Net Promoter Score).
-
Engineering due diligence: What questions would you ask an engineer who claims a new feature will improve usability?
-
Content roadmap: What additional topics can we blog about for software (e.g., observability, learnability, security)?
-
Competitive benchmarking: Should a company compare its software against competitors (e.g., AMD) in public materials? Under what conditions is competitive benchmarking appropriate, and how should legal sign-off, reproducible scripts, and NDAs be handled?
