Who I am
I am based in India and write from a civilizational Indian perspective. The blog reflects my thinking, not my résumé. I am interested in systems: political, digital, biological, civic, and domestic.
About
Dhruv Chaturvedi
I write about the systems that shape modern life: nations, institutions, infrastructure, software, health, and food. The common question is how things work beneath the surface.
In more detail
What I write about
Geopolitics, Indian policy, technology infrastructure, Linux and self-hosting, strength training, and vegetarian cooking. The common thread is that each rewards slow attention to incentives, trade-offs, and maintenance.
Technology
I care about ownership, autonomy, open systems, and infrastructure that can be understood and repaired. Open source and proprietary software both have a place, but subscription dependency should always be questioned.
Infrastructure and self-hosting
Linux, Docker, networking, and self-hosting are not just hobbies. They are ways to understand the stack, reduce dependency, and make technology feel less like rented magic.
Geopolitics
I am interested in nations, state capacity, institutions, sovereignty, strategy, supply chains, global cash flows, and the incentives behind dominant narratives. The frame is realist, national-interest first, and attentive to local realities.
Fitness & food
Fitness and cooking are treated as systems, not motivational projects. I care about high-protein vegetarian food, sustainable fat loss, training, recovery, and what actually works in an Indian household.
