I’m Anurag.

By day I’m somewhere in the infrastructure stack — automating things, breaking things, putting them back together a little better. By night the same energy goes into the homelab humming under my desk.

The pull is mostly the same across both: I like systems I can understand all the way down. The satisfaction of ssh into a box I own, watching containers start, knowing exactly what touches what. The patience to read a man page instead of guessing. The instinct to script the thing the second time it annoys me.

Lately I bounce between:

  • infrastructure & devops — kubernetes, containers, pipelines, the unglamorous plumbing that quietly carries everything.
  • self-hosting & homelab — running my own things on metal I can touch. Networking, storage, the occasional 2am reboot.
  • linux & macos — daily drivers. Dotfiles, terminal workflows, the small frictions you only notice once you remove them.
  • software — across languages and stacks. Whatever the problem actually needs that day.
  • AI & agents — the rabbit hole I keep climbing into late at night.
  • hardware — because every clean abstraction eventually meets a fan, a cable, or a thermal limit.

This is where I write that stuff down — usually because I just spent three hours figuring something out and would rather not figure it out again next year. If a post saves you those same three hours, even better.
