- stevekemp 7y agoMatthew Smith, and later Julian Gollop were definite early "heros" of mine. The former for the obvious reason, the latter almost solely for Chaos. I can recognize a lot of modern developers who are very productive, and seem to have multiple projects on the go. But I always think of Antirez first, he's humble, quiet, thoughtful, and thoroughly competent. I'd rather work with a careful, slow, and precise, person that an army of super-coders.
