  • Monaspace AUR-packaged fonts do not registered as monospace font in ArchLinux.

    Though Konsole can be configured to use the font, Kitty does not recognize it. Manual install in macOS works for Kitty.

    I like Neon and Argon variants of Monaspace.

    My favorite was PragmataPro (not free) but it has different glyphs from Nerd Fonts. Similar ones are Iosevka, Victor, Mplus 1 code. Now new favorite is JetbrainsMono NF.

    SF code, Fira Code are also in the favorite list.

    Lab mono, fragment Mono are nice and planning to try them.

    Generally I like condense (but not too condesed) round fonts.











  • In my experience. ORM has its limitations.

    You can only depend on ORM upto a point. Beyond that you have to go use Arel (relationship algebra in Ruby), execute prepared SQL statement, trigger and functions.

    I use ORM for concise, easier to read and maintainable code. e.g. joining three or more tables in SQL is cumbersum and verbose. Writing related multiple query is too time consuming, etc.

    I learnt from relational algebra, SQL, ORM to vendor specific SQL.
