Just wanted to say: congrats on the book launch Nate! I haven't read through it yet, but skimming through it seems really great. I'm looking forward to reading it all this weekend.

If any of you are on the fence about reading this: please give it a go! Nate is one of the best people I know (both personally and professionally). He's an incredibly hard worker, really great developer, and awesome human. I'm sure you'll learn a lot from him.

C++ has John Carmack, PHP has Zuckerberg, Lisp has Paul Graham. Does anyone know of any good role models to look up to in the ASP.NET world? As childish as it might sound, that has honestly been a sticking point preventing me to be able to really get into all this.

Not sure about ASP.NET but Jon Skeet is pretty much the C#/.NET guru in the internet: https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/9134/jon-skeet-fact...

That's not an exact match with what you are looking for, but try the ASP NET Community Standup which covers lots of "people doing stuff with (ASP) Core":

Anders Hejlsberg is basically the living legend of programming language design.

Anders Hejlsberg for C# I guess? ASP.NET as a framework doesn't have any 'celebrity personalities' that I am aware of, but then it doesn't really need any. Its a good framework, especially with the dotnet core rewrite; you should try it! Put it on Docker and run it on Linux for fun :)
