rafeed··on Your iPhone and iPad Are Limited. T-Mobile is the Exception
It doesn't require you to erase your settings and contents [1]. You only have to do that if you want to revert or something goes wrong. It's actually very easy to install without a jailbreak.

rafeed··on Ask HN: What's Your MacBook* Desk Setup
I have a 15" MBP on an mStand[1] connected to a 27" thunderbolt display, using the Apple wireless keyboard, touchpad, and magic mouse with jitouch and magicprefs. The thunderbolt display is a great docking solution since it's just the power and thunderbolt cable.

Also, Parallels and VMWare are probably better solutions than virtualbox.

rafeed··on Sponsor Me, If You Will
Gotta hand it to you for having the balls to do it (and submit to HN).
rafeed··on Commafeed: An Open Source Google Reader Clone
I like this a lot, but it'll be tough for me to switch without a mobile app like Reeder that supports my own self-hosted CommaFeed. The site/demo itself is crawling for me though.
rafeed··on The Colors of Dribbble
I really like the concept and execution. Nice work! I'd like to know how you aggregated the color data. I found the js on github (https://github.com/nathanspeller/nathanspeller.github.com/bl...) and it just seems like you have a giant manually entered list of all the colors that are popular now, which won't be updated unless you update the colors.
rafeed··on Ask HN: What can I do about bad professors?
haha, only at tech.
rafeed··on Ask HN: What can I do about bad professors?
Doesn't your university have an online/anonymous course evaluation system? If it does, fill it out! If it doesn't, every university should have one. No one will give a shit if you're just complaining to be a bitch, but if there are serious problems to be found and you're not a single data point, they will take action, whether it be they remove him from teaching the class or otherwise. Sometimes action will be taken and you won't know about it. The best you can do is make sure you back up everything you say with intellectual comments and actual facts. No one will do anything about a bitter student who didn't get the A he desperately wanted but didn't deserve.
rafeed··on Tell HN: Startup school 2012 invites are out
Flying in from Phoenix, AZ! I'll do everything I can to make it.
rafeed··on Handwriting to LaTeX maths
This is fantastic! It's actually more robust than I thought it was going to be.
rafeed··on Show HN: My weekend project to learn Javascript - 'Pinterest for Hacker News'
Pretty cool. I agree with all the other suggestions given so far. Also, what tools were/are you using to learn javascript?
