CCS811 indoor air quality sensor driver in Rust

What it does

We spend an enormous amount of time indoors. The indoor air quality is often overlooked but it is actually an important factor in our health, comfort and even productivity. There are lots of things that contribute to the degradation of the indoor air quality over time. Some of them are trivial to guess like breathing, chimneys, second-hand tobacco smoke, mold, etc. There are others that you may not have heard of like volatile organic compounds (VOC) . Remember that smell new things have? well sorry but that can give you cancer . You can build your own indoor air quality monitor with an AMS/ScioSense CCS811 sensor and some Rust using the driver I wrote. The CCS811 is an ultra-low power…from blog.eldruin.com

  Air Lab – A portable and open air quality measuring device2025 · networkedartifacts.com · ▲497

  Hi HN! I’ve been working on an air quality measuring device called Air Lab for the past three years. It measures CO2, temperature, relative humidity, air pollutants (VOC, NOx), and atmospheric pressure. You can log and analyze the data directly on the device — no smartphone or laptop needed. To better show what the device can do and how it feels like, I spent the past week developing a web-based simulator using Emscripten. It runs the stock firmware with most features available except for networking. Check it out and let me know what you think! The firmware will be open-source and available…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Linux sysadmin course, eight years on▲780

  Almost eight years ago I launched an online “Linux sysadmin course for newbies” here at HN. It was a side-project that went well, but never generated enough money to allow me to fully commit to leaving the Day Job. After surviving the Big C, and getting made redundant I thought I might improve and relaunch it commercially – but my doctors are a pessimistic bunch, so it looked like I didn’t have the time. Instead, I rejigged/relaunched it via a Reddit forum this February as free and open - and have now gathered a team of helpers to ensure that it keeps going each month even after I can’t…
