Name the library and upload to PyPI #17

I would like to suggest "effsky" as the name of the library. Here's why it's a good name:

msyriac commented 5 years ago

I like it! I had another suggestion : "zenlib", but I think I like effsky better.

msyriac commented 5 years ago

Sigurd doesn't hate effsky! So I think we have a winner.

We also have some reading to do:

Twitter handle @effsky is sadly taken. But the important thing is that the PyPI package name hasn't been taken. I'm going to proceed with the renaming.

jaguirre commented 5 years ago

Is it wrong to point out that "effing" is sometimes used as a synonym for "f-ing"? Check the urban dictionary ...

There's also the confusion that will arise when someone getting frustrated with huge foregrounds in the SAT maps says "boy, we have a very bad eff-sky" ;-)

msyriac commented 5 years ago

These are all valid concerns :) @jaguirre At least it's not "effingsky" (Like when a particle physicist complains about cosmologists trying to measure neutrino mass -- "All they do is look at the effing sky!") @damonge One way to avoid this confusion is to point out "Well actually, it's pronounced effskeee not effskyy according to the creators" every time some one uses the library name. Some people involved in developing the WebSky sim suite resort to this :)

I actually don't think the eff->effing connotation is too bad. e.g., I haven't seen the Electronic Frontier Foundation get in trouble for this.

msyriac commented 5 years ago

FYI, "effsky" is off the table :| We're back to the drawing board.

mhasself commented 5 years ago

New suggestion: fusrmap

"Full Sky Rectilinear Map Processing Library"

Pronounced "fuser map"

Unless having an f in there, at all, is now problematic.

👍

The pedants among us can call it "fusser map".

Hi, some of my suggestions:

-cylpy -curvepy -cmbpy -mappy

As you can see, I am just taking short words and adding "py" to the end, not sure if that is a good method or not.

Isn't putting py at the end just a way to make the name 2 letters longer without conveying any useful information?

ajvanengelen commented 5 years ago

Yes, definitely.

“mappy,” at least, becomes a new word of its own, I guess — pronounce it to rhyme with nappy.

msyriac commented 5 years ago

mappy is taken on PyPI sadly. Sigurd and I came up with a few more suggestions:

astromap ellsky celmap ellpix astropix celpix pixell

msyriac commented 5 years ago

Bringing this one out as a major contender:

pixell

(pix for pixels, ell for harmonic ell space)

newburgh commented 5 years ago

I vote pixell. Also, when someone makes a more efficient version of the code we can call it pixwell.

Thank you very much, I'll be here all week.

I'm locking down pixell, renaming and deploying to PyPI later today, unless there are objections.

msyriac commented 5 years ago

Repo renamed, and pixell is now available on pip e.g. pip install pixell --user

Thanks everyone! Closing.

ajvanengelen commented 5 years ago

So "pixel" with a French accent :)
