Hi, I’m Siddhesh!
I’m a software engineer, writer, and pop culture nerd. I’m from India and am currently living in the US. I’m interested in a million things, but I sometimes like writing about the things I like more than the things themselves.
Obvious Bicycle is the space where I talk about the stuff I find most interesting in the world: books, music, technology, art, and whatever rabbit hole I happen to be into.
Where to Start
Here are my most popular posts:
Culture Shock (40,000+ views)

And here are some other essays I’ve written:
Obvious Bicycle has also been upvoted to the top of Hacker News a couple of times (1, 2), and given a shout out on Marginal Revolution (1, 2).
And More
In addition to writing, I also send out monthly recommendations of the best stuff I come across - articles, videos, tools, movies, you name it. You can check them out here.
I love talking to people as well. You can write to me at siddhesh@substack.com anytime. Come say hi!
