"Hello, the night king."
let us all DDOS hackernews, what do you guys say? :P
“This isn’t going to change anything but my self esteem.” 😂
spoilers; he shuts down the entire project next week
I gotta say, these logs are probably the best content I’ve seen on TH-cam. It’s so interesting to see you discuss issues and how you’re resolving them.
hkgj
YES
agreed 100%
I always love the cut to the orange tie 🤣
ghjk
yeah haha 😂
My comment got featured in a Ben Awad video. My life is now complete!
i love the subtle nod to the techlead

Just change the name of your startup to CatHouse bro. Now you have a better chance of success:))

@@PlanetComputer use set of meaningfull words instead of randomly generating words with no meaning
Or poosyhouse
It's interesting to hear your thoughts on securing your platform. It all makes sense - phone numbers, social logins, tracking - from the platform perspective, but these are all things that I'd absolutely try to avoid like the plague as a user. Not for nefarious reasons, just for privacy protection/anonymity. Regardless, I love the dogelogs, keep up the good work!
The IP ban and IP sharing thing is even worse. There are providers that save up IP adresses by using carrier grade NAT. So a IP ban could not only affect a whole building but even a whole street or more.
i like the way you hold that mic ben!
Gz on 300k Ben
The subscriber count is literly exaclly 300 000 :D Just how... Congratz tho Ben!
You could allow people to set different "authentication levels" for their rooms, like Discord does with servers
Action 52 font
If you want to go real-secure on the hashing, use an algorithm that allows salting. A small string of random characters that is different for each user, so that even if a secret salt is leaked, it will only affect that one IP. Also makes bruteforcing basically unfeasible.
Hi. Nice update and you've seen the review made by Scott Daly on TH-cam about Dougehouse and Clubhouse right?
Why don't you make whispers off for everyone by default and when a person whispers you, you get a request saying that x user is requesting. It could last a day until you have to request the user again. If they say no, disable the ability to whisper to that user (and in case the person receiving puts "no" by mistake, they can just whisper back to let them both talk).
Ben, you are the funniest dev on YT (maybe the planet)!! Keep making my day!
"I hope next week we get hacked in a more elegant manner" LOL
You could categorize each room like educational , music etc. You can have a searchbar to let users search rooms by category. Also in educational rooms have a screenshare option.
yo it took a double take but I love how you were tieless at first, and then after to the moon slapped on a tie.
do Follower Only as default, then make the room admins allow more loose actions if they want to.
Could you please put all the dogelogs in a single playlist so that we can track it easily in future?

@@bawad I wish I found this before I got to the second-last video lol
Congrats on 300K!
I'm convinced that orange tie is your only tie

When is he gonna wear it in CS??? Jk
"...and also therapy." Gold!
You may look into the img-src CSP if you only want to allow images /avatars from certain domains / urls. Quite a simple implementation but super effective.
your speaking speed syncs with the caption smoothly.
YC reject a lot of people don't get discouraged. I'm going to apply to YC soon and if I get rejected, I will reapply... reapply... reapply.

Best of luck 💪
Ive watched your content for a long time and I have to say, the doge logs have been the best content you’ve ever made ❤️
yes!!
Simp.
@@31redorange08 not sure you get what that means
Re shadow features, you can notify the sender that the receiver has turned shadow messaging off if you're worried about senders feeling ignored.
For starting a startup the best place to go, has been YCombinator, or therapy. XD
For the IP hashing you can't calculate the hash every request, otherwise you'll spend most of your compute on hashes. You'll need to use a table.
In that case, you might as well generate random IDs for each IP and give those out. In either case if the DB is compromised you're done anyway, but with random IDs at least you'll have forward secrecy (bc they are random)
Fingerprinting is way to easy to bypass and the only way you can get Hardware ID info is if you break out of the browsers sandbox (which is considered a vulnerability in most case)
What about having the whisper a shadow feature at first and asking the person if they want to enable whispers as they receive a whisper (something like a notification: someone send you a ... do you want to enable whispers)
the idea about using only Google/GitHub auth temporarily is so good. Thx Ben
Do you have any ideas on how your test functions got deleted?
Please Can you tell me what is the top loading bar for and the loading circle when joining a room is as an example for what.
Have you considered using Gravatar?
The tech is really coming along nicely. I hope you figure out a way to get good casters(?) on your platform. Maybe if you do your own casts to set an example, or release some "How do make a popular/interesting room" with some documentation/materials? I dunno the answer... Right now it's just lofi and people going "uhhhh". :|
hkj
Can't wait for the next one
Maybe someone there loves Angular, so he rejected,
you are awesome bro.....
so much you learn about tech.
Also on Android, Mac addresses are randomly generated by default. So they are not the device's ip
Post notification gang

Would an Image proxy like caravaggio prevent malicious Images?
can't you use a csp to prevent the external resource bugs like this one to cause harm?
This is quite informative and funny at the same time. 😂😂😂😂
Sorry to hear that man
hjgk
I just realized this now... is the "to the moon" thing coming from Dogecoin? If so, there's another reason for your rejection lol
it got coined in the first cryptocurrency boom, because each day u had another coin go "to the moon". (coined pun is intended)
@Katie Ellen Tu . . . ?
@@znull3356 but he is right tho
@Katie Ellen Tu Dogecoin was just created for the meme. The dev found it funny so he created it.
@@kukosek It's technical word salad that in no way contributes to the conversation. Yes, Doge used the Litecoin protocol. It was/is a meme, everyone knows this.
About turning off whispers, it should tell you that the person whispered you but not tell the contents of it, unless you turn whispers on.
So is this episode 8 or 9 of this I'm in confusion
Idea for DogHouse: Add tags for rooms. Like each room can have a tag to generally describe what its about like (tech), (political), (general), etc.
He seriously starting to look like a software engineer.
5:24 That is hopefully not possible, unless your browser is doing some very invasive stuff.
Make a option to put custom colors to the background so we can make our own color themes
gjkh
you can customise the css all you want on your end
Won't hashed ips possibly match mulitiple ips? Do you mean you are encrypting ips?
What I think about the spammer feature is that the time should increase gradually if a user is trying to spam. For instance, the follower will wait for 30 minutes and then he/she will be allowed to send messages even after those 30 minutes if that person is still spamming then we should check the number of messages he or she is sending per second / minute and based on that dynamically increase the time for another 30 minutes or 60 minutes or 60 days or 60 years. IDK maybe this feature is hard to implement or useless
the way he pronounces url’s
Idea Suggestion: Can you make like a last seen online thing for friends?
Thoughts on a room-wide volume bar?
if you click on your profile then voice settings you can adjust, will probably put this in a better place at some point
make puclic rooms accessible without login. and what algorith used to compress audio?
I hope you were at least checking if they were `javascript:` URLs, because that could be an easy XSS vector
If they get into the database they can get banned on purpose, and can brute force the secret from the known IP address (so make sure the secret is large)
Did you switch to brave?
Are you going to add wait time between messages? that way maybe spammers won't be able to fill the chat win only one account.
Wouldn't IP of the user change when s/he reconnects to ISP?
You can try to record the motherboard ID in nodeJS.
Awesome video! like it
ghjk
I don’t know why I watch this but I still like it
Fingerprinting doesnt work in brave or firefox and more browser will add this feature
where is the business part, I am so disappointed.
how do you handle chat? socket io + db?
Ben's just out here roasting the whole industry
We live, we live, we doge.

Y Combinator for my next VR startup.. 3 years solo development ahead though just for the demo. See how that pans out.
A popular site decided to IP ban few IPs when I was in college. You wouldn't realise how messy it gets from there on where randomly people were seeing IP bans after rotation.
When will we get DogeHouse coin?
I'd invest. Consider crowdfunding dogehouse
As an Angular Dev I'm missing the Angular jokes recently
love the updates man, reject yc, embrace doge
Thanks!
you can spoof fingerprints and/or just use another browser
How about using Google reCaptcha to reduce spamming?
Index 8 means it's the 9th one ?
Gold!!
Fingerprinting shouldn't work on firefox, or some really privacy focused browser.
Even we just got rejected by Ycombinator and this video came up in my feed...
You can just let the person disable whispers so they can't get DMs from anyone except people who they choose to get DMs from
shots fired!
Could make it better this way. Have two options , someone can be in doghouse or cathouse
I feel like there are much more malicious things one can do with a lack of input validation, such as XSS.
use azure b2c, or okta as an idp. at least you dont have to worry about building a system from scratch.
or cognito
I feel like you're giving room creators to much power.
We need to take your bio to the moon Ben 🚀🚀🚀
What is this Y Combinator. Why do they decide whether your business idea is great or not? Why do they decide who will have a yacht?
Are mac address bans possible?
IOS app when??
You could’ve put AngularJs as that garbled string :)) 6:15

Didn't you get into LAUNCH?
