Graduated in mathematics over 40 years ago. Spent career in engineering R&D (communications and security). More RFCs than other publications. Retired. These days I spend too much time on some probability software (ask for version to run locally free, website coming). Also a problem setter for New Scientist and a trustee of the Friends of my local museum.

@davekarpf Yes, but. The but would be how you consider earlier examples of founders who became cult figures. From the twentieth century that would include Henry Ford and Walt Disney, and from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century Thomas Edison. There are many more. Are these the same phenomenon, or a different one?
