🚨 We all complain a lot about reviewers/ACs/SACs in the ML/NLP community. But why not look at the data to see what’s going on?
I found some crazy statistics about who is doing/not doing this service in the *CL community. 😱

I'm on the job market! (industry/post-doc/faculty) I work on multilinguality and low-resource NLP, with a focus on computational efficiency. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with opportunities (DM/email)! Applying broadly, flexible location! 🏖️❄️🏔️🌴☔️

How far are we from universal, real-time translation? We sat down with Philipp Koehn, a Meta AI research scientist and one of the inventors of the modern method of phrase-based MT, to dig into promising directions on the path toward universal translation.

Looking for a project in machine translation this spring?Consider participating in our shared task on *conversational speech translation* at @iwslt !
🗓: March 17 test data released
🗓: March 31 submissions due
ℹ️: iwslt.org/doku.php?id=conver…
💬: July 9-10 @aclmeeting
Interested in translation, and how to handle disfluent conversational speech with current models? Check out our Conversational Speech Translation task! We have a constrained track and tracks for speech and text translation to be approachable to all! 🙂

The Machine Translation Marathon of the Americas 2020 is going to take place at Microsoft HQ in Redmond, WA. We start on Tuesday, May 26th, a day after Memorial Day. But when should we stop?
Do you want to finish after 4 days on Friday or after 5 days of MT goodness on Saturday?

"Spelling-aware construction of macaronic texts for teaching foreign-language vocabulary"
A global cloze objective predicts what you'll learn about new words from context/spelling. Human evaluation.

What makes “orange” different in English? Do other languages have interesting color words? Come to my talk in Hong Kong to find out! #emnlp2019
new #emnlp2019 paper with @aryamccarthy, @amuuueller, David Yarowsky, and others --- we quantify what it means to be a basic color term cross-lingually, finding that Berlin & Kay (1969) were *mostly* right, if a little Indo-Euro-centric: arxiv.org/abs/1910.01531
