Saw an article posted about Tim Cook calling the launch of Apple Maps his first big mistake which reminded me of this.
So there was no off-ramp there but AppleMaps decided there was?
There is an onramp, the directions are just poorly worded.
Gives me fond memories of the early days when Google maps would tell you to jet ski across the South China Sea from the Philippines to Vietnam or kayak across the Pacific Ocean from California to Hawaii 😄
Reminds me of this story https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/the-long-way-home/
In less funny news, Google Maps once told me to walk onto a freeway off-ramp.
They installed a ramp. Is not only safe, but rad
Cook added: “Now we’ve got the best map app on the planet”
Who’s going to break the news to him?
But that’s literally the directions to the 280N on ramp from DeAnza
Yeah, it was revealed that it’s a valid turn but the icon lacks the detail to explain why.
Either way, they completely changed it to the highway that runs beside Apple Park.
guess i’ll die 🤷
