There are a few shows that large cable companies wants to have with ads. But it's minimal. I think one of them is "Once upon a time".

I wonder why that website needs your location... After all it's just a news article / press release.
pdappollonio··on Six years of Go
Go websites are essentially long running processes. I have several websites built in Go, all of them running for about 2 months already with no hiccups.
pdappollonio··on Why Airbnb is dead to me
(Disclaimer: I'm in no way affiliated with Uber or Lyft)

It's nice to say that for me and my family, Uber and Lyft has been so professional. We moved from Latin America to Miami a year and 2 months ago and the whole time we've been using Uber / Lyft for our needs. We faced about 4 or 5 crazy moment where Uber / Lyft has solve our problems putting themselves in our side rather than in the driver's side. One instance a driver accepted our ride, reached our apartment and then start driving away. We did not understood at first until he called us and say "I'm going to be delayed to get you guys, so please hang tight". I told him it could be fine if he didn't started the ride already like we were already with him on his car. He said "it is the standard procedure". Bullshit. We cancelled the ride and contacted Uber support. They removed the driver from the service (allegedly, it has happened before) and they refunded us close to 12 USD. Similar situation happened with Lyft.

Realmente creo que este tipo de contenidos (por el idioma) no tienen mucha cabida en HN. Quizás una traducción al inglés?
pdappollonio··on CGI Using Node.js
It allows you to run NodeJS code in a shared server, the ones you buy when you're developing PHP apps, which are cheap and easily findable. Normally, you need a VPS, a dedicated or a cloud to host your NodeJS apps.
pdappollonio··on Microsoft takes .NET open source and cross-platform
Let's hope that lowers the costs of Xamarin. It's a great product, but even Microsoft realizes that, in order to achieve wider adoption, you need something close to the freemium model, like Visual Studio.

Or even I'll be glad to read simple examples about goroutines and channels in a "proper way". Sure, there are a lot of examples out there but everyone seems to have their own way to handle those.

Please, sum one! I'll be glad to be a beta tester when Twitter support becomes available :)
pdappollonio··on Google Auto-Correct is killing my site
Don't worry. Really. Google IS that smart to understand and learn a new word. It worked several times before not just for you or me. Think in any domain that's just an invented word and you'll see that Google learnt their name. It happened to me, too: I've registered "angrybirders.com" and in the beginning, Google said "Did you mean 'Angry Birds'... At the end, if you perform a search, you'll see that the domain was correctly detected and no" Did you mean?" appears on the page.
pdappollonio··on Google Auto-Correct is killing my site
I'll recommend you to wait just a little bit. Commonly, many domains that becomes funny products later starts with an invented word, and Google later has no troubles understanding that's actually a new word.

And just to be sure, add your site to Google Webmasters and try to put the requested name in the title tag, too.

pdappollonio··on Google Auto-Correct is killing my site
How much time ago you uploaded your site? Commonly, a few months after a site is launched, Google understands that's essentially a new word.

pdappollonio··on 8.0 earthquake strikes northern Chile
Not really. I think tomorrow will be a better moment to take some, given the fact that everything is happening by night. I have some pictures from the old 8.8 earthquake on Flickr[1] from a City called Angol (very close to the epicenter of the 8.8 magnitude)...

Flights are suspended in both Arica and Iquique, both cities who are near the epicenter.
pdappollonio··on 8.0 earthquake strikes northern Chile
I'm Chilean and I live in a "problematic" area. Fortunately it was not that hard. We're kind of prepared (of course, with nature, nobody is actually prepared for something like this) and the Government and the people are already evacuating those areas.

The sad part? A lot of people is evacuating using cars, and streets doesn't gave so much space to handle all that traffic. Internet and Mobile networks are still working and that helped to reach to almost anyone.

ONEMI, which is the emergency organism here, already published the expected hour the waves will arrive to those problematic areas, so some cities have plenty of time to evacuate.

pdappollonio··on Major upgrades to Xamarin’s platform: Async is here
I was wondering if there are other alternatives out there like Xamarin. I've used their Mono for Android software and was good but sadly, the prices went too high this time so if you want to use Visual Studio you need to add a good amount of money to make it true. :(
