Curious to know who the author is or what he is famous for? I searched his posts, it looks like there were no post for a decade before last year.

Roko, of "Roko's basilisk".

He himself isn't really famous, but due to the infamous reaction his post on the subject received, his username will probably be etched into the history books for centuries. (Or at least a few fiction and non-fiction books here and there.)
