KODA (Knowledge-Oriented Data Abstraction) is a schema-first data format designed to reduce token usage when sending structured data to LLMs. It works by: Defining structure once (schema-first) Encoding v
This is part three of a series on display consistency in embedded systems. The first two parts were technical. This one is about why the technical parts worked. The picture: ATtiny85 thermometer. Neural network inference. QUAD7SHIFT display. Built from datasheets. He had datasheets. No Stack Overflow. No libraries to install. No AI to generate boilerplate. No tutorials that abstracted away the in
