There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Access Unpublished Brief history How old: created in Feb 2011 by aberg, though recent releases are by Christian Fritsch (chr.fritsch) of Thunder Versions available: 8.x-1.5 Maintainership Security coverage Test coverage Number of open issues: 58 open issues, 17 of which are bugs against the current branch Usage stats: 8,638 sites Module features and usage Once installed, this module adds a new element to your unpublished entity forms, for generating links with a special hash value. When generating the link, you can choose how long the hash value can be used for access. Within that form section, you can copy the access URL for any of your generated tokens, and then paste into an email or some kind of direct message. You will need to set a permission for users to access content using the special access URLs, so if you want anyone with the URL to be allowed access, you'll need to assign that permission to the Anonymous user role The access lifetime can be anything from 1 day to unlimited (never expires), and you can set the default value in the settings form. That form also allows you to set the URL parameter that will be used for access, gives you options to modify the HTTP headers on the unpublished page, and has a check box you can use to delete all expired tokens. Expired tokens will be deleted on cron run, and when you delete an entity any related tokens are also removed. This use case of allowing review of unpublished content for people who aren't users in the Drupal site is a request I hear on a regular (if infrequent) basis, so I've personally found this module really useful. Necessary Patch: https://www.drupal.org/project/access_unpublished/issues/3421309 Not to be confused with https://www.drupal.org/project/preview_link Preview link is missing the ability to set length of access.

Inside the BloomBox: Reimagining Global Education with Sofie Roux

Episode page with video, transcript, and more My guest for Episode #236 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Sofie Roux, the visionary Gen Z Founder & CEO of BloomBox Design Labs, which is transforming education through innovation.  Sofie's journey began long before her studies at Stanford University, where she studies civil engineering and architecture. It all started with "Sparkly and Smart," an art enterprise that remarkably raised $300,000 to support girls' education. Today, through her revolutionary BloomBoxes ingeniously crafted from repurposed shipping containers, she's reshaping education in Malawi by crafting vibrant STEAM learning environments.  Unravel the revolution of the BloomBox, an educational space breaking barriers by merging innovative technology with architecture, designed to host an array of teaching resources for optimum learning. From its humble beginnings, built and shipped from North America, to transitioning operations to South Africa for economic and environmental sustainability, Bloombox has become a beacon of hope. This initiative has not only curtailed costs but has boosted local economies, creating new job opportunities, and reinforced its mission to bring quality education worldwide. What's Sofie's favorite mistake related to this project? How did she react? And what did she learn in the process?  Questions and Topics: Tell us about the functionality of the BloomBox? Starting with the why What was your spark for this passion for helping girls in Africa? Tell us more about the tech of the BloomBox and how it's used? Was the retractable solar panels part of v 1.0? Design spec or lesson learned? With the Bloombox – there are apparent iterations and learning — is that continuous improvement or learning from mistakes, or both? Tell us how you raised the money? “Sparkly and Smart” — website and Etsy The website shows the overall design and installation process. Talk to me about how the end-to-end process design matters, not just the hardware design… Tell us about Design Thinking and how that influences your work and the BloomBox? At Stanford what are the opportunities to learn about Design Thinking and entrepreneurship, formal or informal? Social benefit corporation vs. not-for-profit? Bloombox Design Labs: Revolutionizing Education Through Innovative Solutions Sofie Roux, a Gen Z visionary and CEO of BloomBox Design Labs, seeks to transform the educational landscape with innovation at the helm. Her journey, which commenced even before her tenure at Stanford University studying civil engineering and architecture, is evidently embellished with radical innovations and projects. One such project entails the creation of Bloomboxes from repurposed shipping containers. These blocks have become instrumental in reshaping education in Malawi. Positioned within the learning environment, Bloomboxes are transforming the way students learn and interact with educational materials. After months of sweat, effort, collaboration, $80,000 on technology and meticulous planning, Sofie and her team encountered a debilitating setback when shipping their first BloomBox. But every dark cloud has a silver lining. This setback unlocked a pivotal lesson for Sofie – accounting for important aspects that one might overlook during the planning process, and rallying the community for support during the implementation phase. Building an Innovative Learning Environment with the BloomBox At its core, the BloomBox strives to provide access to quality education for every child, especially girls, worldwide. Crafted from upcycled shipping containers and fitted with a retractable solar roof system, the Bloombox is more than just a classroom – it represents a merging of innovation and education. Designed to host about twenty laptop computers connected to an off-grid server, the BloomBox is equipped with premier technology, lights, fans, projectors, mobile furniture, and a teacher's desk. It also boasts an extensive library of educational resources, transforming it into a full-fledged maker space. Strategic Innovations and Iterations: Fostering Local Economies Since its inception, the BloomBox project has seen considerable growth and progression. Initially, the boxes were built and shipped from North America. However, the need to cut costs shifted this operation to the South African development community, including Malawi. This strategic move not only curtailed expenditures, but also boosted local economies, employing locals whilst galvanizing the project. The transition further aided in building a team in Africa that assists in the ongoing BloomBox installations. Sofie relies heavily on her team's expertise and knowledge – from essential observations to rigorous technicalities – to keep improving the BloomBox design and making it more effective, useful, and sustainable. Sofie's vision proves that architecture is more than designing spaces; it's about creating environments that positively impact people's lives while fostering technology, innovation, and community empowerment. Her journey continues as she plans to scale the project, potentially connecting to Starlink for satellite internet access and reaching more schools, thus proving that the BloomBox design will never be truly done but constantly evolve with each implementation. Embracing Social Enterprise: A Creative Approach to Address Global Educational Problems Sofie Roux, through her BloomBox project, highlights that businesses can champion an aim beyond monetary gain. Her venture is not merely about designing a product to secure returns; instead, it's built around a social cause – to provide quality education access using creative methodologies. She acknowledges her education at Stanford University, a transformative time spent partaking in the Technology Ventures program and working in maker spaces. These experiences undoubtedly embellished her innovative approach to identifying and solving societal issues. Delineating the BloomBox: A Sustainable Social Benefit Corporation As the founder and CEO of a blooming social benefit corporation, Sofie has had to invade some uncharted territories. Often, sustainable development projects need to conjure creative funding methods to continue on their journey, given that government funding might not always be possible. Sofie's BloomBox, for example, is left with the goal of reaching 67 more schools, and this objective requires secure financing. One creative method Sofie proposes is the commercial sale of BloomBox revolutionary roof design, separating it from its educational purpose and marketing it to any sector requiring off-grid power supply. The plan also involves running BloomBox as an enterprise, balancing between an arm that installs BloomBoxes for free at educational institutions and another that seeks commercial gain to sustain the project. Creating Microeconomies Using the BloomBox Design Sofie's vision doesn't stop at providing access to quality education. She has a novel idea of creating a microeconomy around each BloomBox. Connecting with Starlink to access satellite internet is a significant part of this plan. The idea is simple: while providing free internet access to the students attending the school where the BloomBox is installed, the neighboring community members can get online access for a small monthly fee. As the surrounding community continues to pay these modest fees over time, they would eventually cover the cost of the BloomBox, creating a sustainable, mutually beneficial system. The prospect of limitless possibilities that can arise from someone having a connection to the internet is exciting, and Sofie wants to facilitate those possibilities through the BloomBox initiative. Nurturing Courage and Trust in a Social Enterprise Social enterprises, such as BloomBox, often have to navigate a landscape filled with uncertainties. It takes courage to call out potential issues that might arise, requiring team members to speak up despite fears of offending or erring. It involves trusting others once you've done all within your capacity. Sofie shares her experience of trusting others when lifting a BloomBox with a rusty chain did not go as planned. Despite the mishap, she chooses to focus on the positive takeaways and lessons learned from the incident, offering valuable insights for entrepreneurs at every stage of their entrepreneurial journey. Encouraging Support for Entrepreneurs and Continued Growth As Sofie's story unfolds, it becomes clear that supporting other entrepreneurs is vital in inspiring novel solutions and innovations. Entities like the Stanford Technology Ventures program, and other community supporters, by providing access to resources and encouraging innovative action, actively contribute to the success of ventures like BloomBox. Sofie's journey, along with her fellow entrepreneurs, is still in progress, with new lessons learned, challenges negotiated, and opportunities created every day. The continuous growth and evolution of BloomBox and similar ventures promise an inspirational future for aspiring entrepreneurs. Discover more about her journey and BloomBox Design Labs here.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: EA EDA: What do Forum Topics tell us about changes in EA?, published by JWS on July 15, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. tl;dr2: Data on EA Forum posts and topics doesn't show clear 'waves' of EA tl;dr: I used the Forum API to collect data on the trends of EA Forum topics over time. While this analysis is by no means definitive, it doesn't support the simple narrative that there was a golden age of EA that has abandoned for a much worse one. There has been a rise in AI Safety posts, but that has also been fairly recent (within the last ~2 years) 1. Introduction I really liked Ben West's recent post about 'Third Wave Effective Altruism', especially for its historical reflection on what First and Second Wave EA looked like. This characterisation of EA's history seemed to strike a chord with many Forum users, and has been reflected in recent critical coverage of EA that claims the movement has abandoned its well-intentioned roots (e.g. donations for bed nets) and decided to focus fully on bizarre risks to save a distant, hypothetical future. I've always been a bit sceptical with how common this sort of framing seems to be, especially since the best evidence we have from funding for the overall EA picture shows that most funding is still going to Global Health areas. As something of a (data) scientist myself, I thought I'd turn to one of the primary sources of information for what EAs think to shed some more light on this problem - the Forum itself! This post is a write-up of the initial data collection and analysis that followed. It's not meant to be the definitive word on either how EA, or use of the EA Forum, has changed over time. Instead, I hope it will challenge some assumptions and intuitions, prompt some interesting discussion, and hopefully leads to future posts in a similar direction either from myself or others. 2. Methodology (Feel free to skip this section if you're not interested in all the caveats) You may not be aware, the Forum has an API! While I couldn't find clear documentation on how to use it or a fully defined schema, people have used it in the past for interesting projects and some have very kindly shared their results & methods. I found these following three especially useful (the first two have linked GitHubs with their code): The Tree of Tags by Filip Sondej Effective Altruism Data from Hamish This LessWrong tutorial from Issa Rice With these examples to help me, I created my own code to get every post made on the EA Forum to date (without those who have deleted their post). There are various caveats to make about the data representation and data quality. These include: I extracted the data on July 7th - so any totals (e.g. number of posts, post score etc) or other details are only correct as of that date. I could only extract the postedAt date - which isn't always when the post in question was actually posted. A case in point, I'm pretty sure this post wasn't actually posted in 1972. However, it's the best data I could find, so hopefully for the vast majority of posts the display date is the posted date. In looking for a starting point for the data, there was a discontinuity between August to September 2014, but the data was a lot more continuous after then. I analyse the data in terms of monthly totals, so I threw out the one-week of data I had for July. The final dataset is therefore 106 months from September 2014 to June 2023 (inclusive). There are around ~950 distinct tags/topics in my data, which are far too many to plot concisely and share useful information. I've decided to take the top 50 topics in terms of times used, which collectively account for 56% of all Forum tags and 92% of posts in the above time period. I only extracted the first listed Author of a post - however, only 1 graph shared below relies on a user-level aggregat...

Companies use bug bounties and penetration testing to proactively look for vulnerabilities in their systems. These programs should be part of any security conscious organization. However, even with these systems in place, it can be difficult to stay ahead of the hackers and potential attacks. Additionally, the tools available for running penetration tests can be complex to run and often require using a combination of tools. Former pentester and bug bounty hunter Nenan Zaric joins the show to talk about the types of vulnerabilities that companies should be looking for and about how to automate security workflows through the Trickest platform, a company he founded. Nenad's advice from years of cybersecurity work is to be proactive and always attack yourself so that you can find the problems before the attacker does. Topics: Tell me about your history as a former penetration tester and bug bounty hacker. First, what is pentesting and bug bounty hacking How did you get into this field and learn the skills necessary to hack into systems? What are some of the common mistakes companies make when it comes to security that allows a hacker to penetrate their security? How should companies think about protecting themselves and their customer data to prevent such attacks? What is Trickest? Is the idea of automating security workflows something new? How is this traditionally done and how does Trickest improve on the traditional model? What are the common use cases that people are using Trickest for? What sort of common attacks does Trickest help prevent? Who's your typical user? Is it a white collar hacker, like a pentester, or is it security professionals within an organization wanting to have an automated system for testing their security? Walk me through how to set up an automated security workflow. What's the output of a workflow? How do the ready-made workflows work? What are some examples? Where do these security workflows fit with the overall development process for a company? Is this an on-going thing that should be continually run and tested for weaknesses? A large amount of attacks have a human element, social engineering and such, how does Trickest help prevent such attacks? What are your thoughts on the future of security? Are we getting better at protecting and locking down systems? What's next for Trickest? Anything in the future roadmap that you can share? Resources: Trickest
