I used to use GOOG-411 all the time before I had a smart phone. I must have provided so much training data that it is no surprise Google from early on has been very good at Speech-to-Text conversion of my particular accent :D

I am not sure what particular performance metric we are discussing here. I can however say that from a gaming standpoint Windows 10 and 11 perform extremely similar. This at least was the case when Windows 11 was first released and I made t

It uses the pressure altitude relative to the sea level pressure you configure in the plane (the altimeter in inHg / QNH). Above transition altitude (in the US usually 18000) you switch to standard pressure (29.92 inHg), so for those h

100,000 LOC modified - 21 tests. Ship it. In all seriousness, I hope that includes simulation code / integration tests and the 21 test flights were essentially E2E tests.
