Once again, I foolishly tried to update the cli, since it keeps asking me to do so when I use it. I tried the command you reference, but it didn't work this time. I tried updating node using brew, but now I can't seem to get anything to work (including uninstalling the CLI). I now get this error, which I haven't seen before,
Error: Cannot find module 'semver'

I'm on macOS Sierra 10.12.5
Any ideas what to try now?
Update:
I fixed this using the suggestions from Stack Overflow (here)
I ran these commands,
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules
sudo rm -rf ~/.npm
brew uninstall --force node
brew install node
followed by,
npm uninstall -g particle-cli
npm install -g particle-cli
