Cliff Stoll is a super interesting character. His Numberphile videos are amongst my favorites.
I actually ran into him on Reddit of all places a couple weeks ago. I was looking into air filters for my Mac Studio and I found a post where he had built a special stand with a cut up furnace filter to help protect his Mac Studio from dust. I recognized his garage from Numberphile and asked if it was him, sure enough.
I mean to actually build something like his contraption. My old house collects so much dust.
- CliffStoll 4y agoThank you Donat — your happy note brings a smile to this tired astronomer’s face, We have two wonderful cats who enjoy shedding cat hair around my desk. The new Mac Studio draws cooling air from the tabletop ,resulting cat fluff clogging the air passages. As you saw, it’s a chance to research how filter media work, and to home brew a solution that keeps everyone happy: computer, Cliff, and cats.
