Anne Hathaway bought the rights to a novel about a tradwife influencer who wakes up in 1855 and has to actually live the life she's been selling online. The book is called Yesteryear. It came out 3 days ago. The film rights were already sold to Hathaway, who will produce and star.

Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.

Belgium not international enough? Fine. Our third and final keynote is none other than @katta.bsky.social from TU Wien 🇦🇹! Their work on Critical Access in Embodied Computing inspires #design and #engineering, ensuring that #technology reflects and supports #diversity - a perfect fit for #GITT2026!

I have some big boots to fill, but I will do my best to live up to the expectations! 🤝
Really excited about this new role, looking forward to exploring new #Translation Spaces with all of you! 🚀

This was a bit out of my usual #MachineTranslation comfort zone, but it was great to get to know the field of #CriticalLanguageAwareness and meet so many fascinating people. Thanks to the CLADES organisers for the invitation! 🤩 If you too want to fight #bias in MT, check out biasshield.org 🛡️

The proud supervisor moments are piling up at #MTSUMMIT2025 😍 Now Xiaoye Li presenting (for the first time!) at #CTT2025 the work we did on revision and perceived origin of a translation (HT vs NMT) It's been great working together in Ghent these past few months 🔥

Some key takeaways: we need to be careful to generalise our findings as there is a lot of individual variation across translators and texts #CTT2025

Full house at #CTT2025 at #MTSUMMIT2025 for the paper with Lieve Macken and @paolaruffo.bsky.social on translation difficulties in different workflows in literary translation 🤩
