To echo your list of four famous people:

Elon Musk, George Hotz, John Carmack, Jim Keller.

Check out their podcasts with Lex Fridman, especially the earlier ones. And George has a nice blog: https://geohot.github.io/blog

Focus on the ideas, not the person talking. Also, you're probably smarter than these people in at least one way.
