To me, the Chuck Norris of programming has to be Fabrice Bellard

He's the Chuck Norris of StackOverflow, maybe.

Yeah I thought exactly the same, but I guess Jon Skeet is from a different era altogether, we're moving into a world where many programmers perhaps have never even entered StackOverflow. I feel old.

Jon Skeet was very much a local hero on StackOverflow, and on StackOverflow only.

Claude & Codex are still learning from Jon Skeet.
