       +Abstract: Numerical models are used extensively for simulating
       +complex physical systems including fluid flows, astronomical events,
       +weather, and climate.  Many researchers struggle to bring their
       +model developments from single-computer, interpreted languages to
       +parallel high-performance computing (HPC) systems.  There are
       +initiatives to make interpreted languages such as MATLAB, Python,
       +and Julia feasible for HPC programming.  In this talk I argue that
       +the computational overhead is far costlier than any potential
       +development time saved.  Instead, doing model development in C and
       +unix tools from the start minimizes porting headaches between
       +platforms, reduces energy use on all systems, and ensures
       +reproducibility of results.
