I did a thing
Here is the font.

Modern Mono
I tried Scientifica as a joke, and have ended up using it both in the terminal and editor: https://github.com/nerdypepper/scientifica
The blockiness just works for me. Reminds me of old DOS fonts. Coworkers hate looking at my screen though.

I have no idea how to get URxvt to use a bitmap font
URxvt refuses to use a bitmap font. I want to use scientifica, and I've installed it previously and did `fc-cache -fv`. It works in other applications. In URxvt, I can successfully change the default font to something like JetBrains by putting urxvt*font: xft:JetBrains Mono:size=11 and that works just fine. Replacing `JetBrains Mono` with scientifica or any variation of it does not work. Thanks for any help.

Hi, out of curiosity, what are your favourite fonts that you are using?
Recently I discovered Recursive font (https://github.com/arrowtype/recursive), I like the work behind this. I have been using this, and finally see it as my final settlement. You can even customize the font to your needs: https://github.com/arrowtype/recursive-code-config

Grotesque/Neo-grotesque font in variable flavor
- I have one OFL font with a few variable axes, Recursive, made for Google Fonts – but it isn’t really a neo-grotesque like you are seeking (but still can be fun for web design and dev!)

Improving Netlify's Default HTTP Cache-Control Headers for Immutable Assets
I decided to use the Recursive font on my site once again and when it went live, they kept popping in between subsequent reloads. Looking into it, it turns out that this was due to how Netlify caches things.
