Shaking the Stack: Teaching Seismology to Talk Back
Opening — Why this matters now Scientific software has a strange tradition: world‑class physics wrapped in workflows that feel frozen in the 1990s. Seismology is no exception. SPECFEM — arguably the gold standard for seismic wave simulation — delivers extraordinary numerical fidelity, but only after users survive a rite of passage involving fragile text files, shell scripts, and MPI incantations. ...
