That's understood in the comment which explicitly indicates that there are many programming circles and that Bellard is known in a number of them (but not all).

eg: I grew up in the Australian Kimberley region (kind of remote), spent decades in geophysical mapping, multi channel data processing, computational algebra, and other odd niches, have no real interest in SV, and am quite familiar with Bellard's work.

No idea who DHH is though.

That validates his point - barely anyone outside the ruby community would even know about DHH if he didn't manage to trigger the eternally outraged.

Oh, yes. That was a straight-face answer, not anything to contradict the point. I never heard of the initialism in any other context either.
