    The year is 2020. Ash has blocked out the sun. My friends are evacuating out of fire zones. Pants are a distant memory. A podcaster asks me over Zoom, “So what’s it like to be a woman in tech?”

    Yikes! Is https://www.airnow.gov an accurate indicator of air quality? If so, ours is pretty good!

    I saw someone on here say they lived through a wildfire and now their signal for leaving is when birds start falling out of the sky dead, and instead of thinking "my god, this is horrific" I thought "dead birds, good, I'll check for that"

    Air filter duct tape trash bag fan
    Aaron Parecki
    That implies I have an air filter lying around. Believe me if there was one anywhere nearby in this town I would have done this already.

    If the entire East Coast looked like Mordor outside and it smelled like a barbecue every time you left your house we would not stop hearing the end of it. I don’t know if people not on the West Coast understand how bad it is

    Uh, not super sealed. 172 AQI is still utter shite. You need a filter, man.
    Aaron Parecki
    Well the hallway is like 240 so...

    That’s cool. And you need better filters. How are you scrubbing internal air? Now I’m really curious what the AQI is in my house and studio!!
    Aaron Parecki
    I need filters at all! Just running the AC right now, but the exterior windows are super sealed and the apartment hallway air is filtered

    Which sensor and hub do you have? I've been wanting a wearable sensor that also measures tvoc, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide
    Aaron Parecki
    It's the PMS5003 sensor that's in a whole bunch of devices. It'd be a real challenge to make it wearable but that sounds like fun!

    Is the inside AQI so much lower just from keeping the doors / windows closed, or do you have active filtration running?
    Aaron Parecki
    We're in an apartment so there's some building wide filtering for the hallway. Keeping all outside doors/windows closed, and running an AC. No special filters tho.

    Fun Friday night project: set up a PM2.5 sensor inside and hooked it up to my home automation hub, and now have a display on the wall showing the terrible terrible inside and outside AQI
