Ask HN: Do you sign NDAs up front?
I've recently been looking for some side iOS work. It seems that everyone wants to protect their idea with an NDA before even talking.

Re:Police concerned with Apple iOS 6 mapping system

I'm shocked apple hasn't made the "pin is at incorrect location" more prominent.
A very popular dining and shopping center in Atlanta shows up erroneously on my quiet side street. I flag down people in cars when I see they're confused and tell them about how to report the errors. Nobody knows it's there. 1.5 months of doing this and it's still not fixed.
In contrast when I reported my address at the wrong end of the street ( over a year ago ) Google fixed it in a week AND sent me a confirmation email. I want my Google maps back on iOS6!

The new maps drop a major landmark on my street in Atlanta. We went from dead quiet to non-stop traffic. Not good when people are driving 30+ MPH staring at their phones in confusion.
It's been 1.5 months since we've had everyone we can think of submit the problem. Still not fixed.
What does it take for Apple to actually "fix" an incorrect pin location and label?

Totally agree on the text zoom. I like that the iOS app has text under the icons. On gmail web they don't and I have to think a bit before I click an icon. I feel the earlier versions of web gmail were much more intuitive.

It would be interesting to aggregate the top similar tweets in these hot areas and show that as a tool tip. No idea how difficult that might be :)
