Welcome to Shalusri: The World of a Technologist
Where curiosity meets evidence, and complex topics get the research they deserve.
Hello, and welcome to my corner of the Internet.
I am Sri Bolisetty, a technologist and lifelong learner with an insatiable curiosity about how things actually work - not just how they're supposed to work, or how people claim they work, but how they really work when you dig into the data.
What You'll Find Here
This site is my attempt to bridge the gap between complex technical topics and accessible understanding. In our age of information abundance and analysis paralysis, I believe in doing the hard work of research so you don't have to—while showing you exactly how I arrived at my conclusions.
🔬 My Approach
- Evidence over opinion (though I'll share both)
- Primary sources over headlines
- Nuance over simplification
- Data over dogma
When I encounter a claim that doesn't sound right, my first instinct isn't to argue—but to research. When I see a technical topic being oversimplified in policy discussions, I dive into the literature borne by peers. When something sparks my curiosity, I can't rest until I understand it deeply enough.
Three Ways to Follow Along
I've organized my writing into three distinct newsletters, because different topics deserve different treatments:
📈 Shalusri Updates
For business and company news
Updates about my consulting work, new services, professional milestones, and company developments. If you're interested in working together or staying informed about my business activities, this is your newsletter.
💻 Tech Insights
For technology analysis and research
Deep dives into technology trends, technical solutions, and industry analysis from a practicing technologist's perspective. Whether it's emerging frameworks, architectural patterns, or technology adoption challenges, I explore the technical topics that shape our digital world.
🌍 This and That: Opinion, Research and Simple Thoughts
For everything else that catches my attention
This is where I scratch my intellectual itches—researching topics beyond technology that spark my curiosity. From fact-checking viral claims to exploring interdisciplinary questions, this newsletter is for anyone who enjoys following evidence wherever it leads.
My first piece in this category examines 30+ years of ethanol research after encountering some questionable claims on social media. Spoiler: the data tells a fascinating story about how industries adapt and evolve.
Why I Write
In a world where expertise is often claimed but rarely demonstrated, I believe in showing my work. Every analysis I publish includes sources, methodology, and enough detail for you to verify my conclusions independently.
I'm just trying to be the most curious person around and I would like to invite you to be curious along with me.
Let's Connect
Whether you're here for the technology insights, the research deep-dives, or just enjoy watching random topics, I'm glad you're here.
Choose your adventure:
- Subscribe to one newsletter that matches your interests
- Subscribe to all three if you enjoy intellectual variety
- Follow along casually and subscribe when something catches your eye
I believe the best conversations happen when people bring different perspectives to common topics. So whether you agree with my conclusions or want to challenge them, I welcome both.
About Me
I'm a technologist, consultant, and researcher based in Frisco Texas. When I'm not diving into technical topics or chasing down sources, I'm probably thinking about the next interesting problem to solve. You can reach me at sri@shalusri.com or connect with me on [preferred social platforms].
This is Shalusri - The World of a Technologist, a brand new site by Sri Bolisetty that's just getting started. Things will be up and running here shortly, but you can subscribe in the meantime if you'd like to stay up to date and receive emails when new content is published!
