Flash an AirGradient ONE from the Command Line

I’ve purchased two AirGradient ONE indoor quality monitors to measure air quality in my home. AirGradient devices are open-source, so you can flash your own custom firmware and collect your air data locally rather than sending it to AirGradient’s proprietary cloud dashboard. I keep an AirGradient ONE air quality monitor in my office to measure CO2 and pollution. The existing documentation for flashing firmware requires you to use the Arduino IDE, a clunky GUI program:

Educational Products: Month 10

New here? Hi, I’m Michael. I’m a software developer and founder of small, indie tech businesses. I’m currently working on a book called Refactoring English: Effective Writing for Software Developers. Every month, I publish a retrospective like this one to share how things are going with my book and my professional life overall. Highlights I find that not every reader who purchases early access to my book wants to give me feedback about rough drafts. I figure out where all my time is going and think of ways to minimize time drains. I spend 10 hours reimplementing a web app from scratch that originally took me 300 hours to build. I continue to learn functional programming with Gleam, but I might be cheating. Goal grades At the start of each month, I declare what I’d like to accomplish. Here’s how I did against those goals:

On quitting

I've spoken about quitting a few times before. Quitting is an amazing tool in our arsenal that we should be more comfortable in using. We're taught to never quit, but the truth is that learning when to quit is a superpower. We can never quit our ultimate goal, our destiny. That is ingrained in us. It leads us. But, it doesn't mean that it won't be delayed for us if we get distracted by shiny things along the way. The ideal situation is not to get distracted by the shiny things in the first place. But, we do. I do. Though, I'm happy to say that I don't so much lately. But, I've gotten distracted by mediocrity before because it sounded safe and I wasn't brave enough to say "No!" to. Or I had doubts about the journey I was on. And the shiny thing felt safe, even though I knew that it wasn't the right thing. My ask. The promise. Beware of the shiny objects One thing I like preaching about is that quitting is an important tool that must be used on our way to reaching our destiny. Quitting has served me well throughout my life. And I'm not talking about just quitting a job you hate. Big quits. Something you know you should be done with. Something your friends and family may think you're crazy to part ways with. But, you know in your heart of hearts that you're made for more, much more. The hardest part is quitting things that have somehow become a part of our identity. And they don't have to be things that are necessarily dragging us down. They are usually things that keep us in place and stop us from moving on to the next chapter in our journey. The trick is in realizing this. Once we do, everything becomes clearer. Closing old doors makes room for new exciting doors to open.
