Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie for unix, c, go,

Claude Shannon for information theory,

Isaac Asimov for pushing what I believe to be theoretically possible in computer science.

Larry Wall for perl and taking elegant code hacks to the next level lol

Bram Moolenaar for Vim keybindings which have saved me hours of my life when it comes to editing code
