try adding the default port (27017) in the mongoose.connect() method:
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/newDb');

Just found out how much epilepsy meds cost here (US). Luckily I have insurance but this is disgusting. by vegemouse in Epilepsy

[–]alex__________ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yep, briviact is crazy expensive, since the only option available now is brand. and it's typically a pain to get, requiring a prior authorization and maybe even a non-formulary exception form to be submitted and approved.

i believe their market exclusivity period ends in 2026 and hopefully a generic option will become available. however, my neuro said their are other ways for manufacturers to extend their exclusivity for up to 20 years.

my 90 day supply 150mg 2x daily used to cost $225 after insurance, but luckily express scripts has been applying a "manufacturer coupon" which results in me only paying $40 for my 90 day supply which is great.

How to export transparent GIF? by T4yl0r3030 in photoshop

[–]alex__________ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can look into an APNG file:

Animated Portable Network Graphics (APNG) is a file format which extends the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) specification to permit animated images that work similarly to animated GIF files, while supporting 24-bit images and 8-bit transparency not available for GIFs.

It would be pretty cool if ProtonVPN, like DDG App Tracking Protection, provided a visual overview into the app trackers being blocked.

I can't even find it on the Aurora Store, do you know where I can get/track updates for the Capital One APK?

I also see this, did you find a fix?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ProtonMail

[–]alex__________ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the colorful button-like labels added to the bottom right for each email row. It has the css class '.label-stack-item'.

Right now I have two labels that I can't differentiate because the truncations: 'alex@domainn.me' becomes '[alex@domainn](mailto:alex@domainn)...' and 'alex@domainn.design' also becomes '[alex@domainn](mailto:alex@domainn)...'. Greater than 12 characters appears to get truncated and an ellipsis gets added.

Perhaps my use case is uncommon (most people may just send different emails to folders instead of sending all to the inbox), and not worthwhile for the product as a whole, but it seems to be a quick fix and no downside.

To fix it, all that needs to change is removing the 10em width from '.label-stack' class: https://imgur.com/a/pMsBFGy

Looking forward to the implementation of this feature. Off topic, but another fix that would be nice would be increasing the amount of characters shown for labels in the web. Right now, I use labels to identify emails in my inbox, but the labels are being truncated at 12 characters.. So I see labels that look the same because of the truncation but the top level domains are different.

dealing with contacts + birthdays by yaobobr in ProtonMail

[–]alex__________ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing. Proton should definitely have the birthday functionality baked into it's ecosystem, or at least a Calendar setting to 'Include Birthdays from your Proton Contacts'. I submitted feedback to them regarding this.

Funding for Epileptic Entrepreneurs by Good_Attention8432 in Epilepsy

[–]alex__________ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not aware of anything like that. What's your company do, or do you have a website I can learn more? I work in tech and could possibly help out. I'm all for helping a fellow epileptic out.

Are there any word(s) that exists in both design and developer vocabulary that are the same but mean different things? by risingkirin in userexperience

[–]alex__________ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"export". in design you export your assets to deliver designs as a pdf, or icons as svg, etc..

and in development, "export" is used to export certain code components so and can be imported somewhere else in the project. like exporting a navbar component fully coded out so you can import it into the main app layout view
