That's how "fake news/facts" are born - someone in another thread threw an idea out there if maybe odd numbers are beta and that thought was based just on 2 (TWO) data points. TWO!!!!!!!!!

Odd numbers are beta / alpha releases... This is known, and it's not based on 2 data points I assure you.

You're an optimist, I guess

"You're an optimist". In this case I am just going by the pattern of the past year. Pretty easy to verify via TeslaFI that we have been getting a New Firmware about every two "even numbered" weeks for a long time. The ODD number Weeks Release is very new. And I was just reporting that what someone else was reporting (not fake new on my part since I was clear). I did not simply say it was a fact. But clearly the even weeks firmware release is common knowledge. Right?

No it is not. I clearly said someone else on this forum reported. I did not say Tesla said. Right? That allows you to do your own research if you disagree with what has been reported if it is something of interest. I.E. I am not the expert on what is reported. Using the phrase "fake news/facts" in what I was posting is going too far but my guess is you are the one trying to misrepresent what is being discussed for whatever reason.

Come on it’s not just based off 2 data points. It’s also based off what previous odd releases have been. Odd numbered weeks being Early Access releases has been a longstanding pattern.

The odd-even pattern for pointless releases is also a standard Unix/Linux naming convention.

Well, my app just alerted me that the software update has failed. Excellent.

bummer!

 

[muleferg]

Very interesting. I just downloaded 2018.6 this am.

OK, heh. I obviously meant point releases, but sometimes software updates feel pointless.

Certainly, a LOT more even release.

ev-fw.com/reports data for 17-18 -- yellow is % of MAX installs (hence 2017.50.2 had 892 and is 100%)

Thanks all for correcting me, I should've researched the topic before posting.

I had to google alpha and beta releases so be patient please.

I can’t remember the last time my car had an even release number. Does that mean for some reason I’m in perpetual alpha/beta?

Is it tied to something? For example, I have a EAP AP2 so will it always be a beta release due to the beta message from enabling auto lane change?

What's your current software version?

 

[chillaban]

On a side note: Anyone heard any online chatter about 2018.7 yet? The fact that there's a new beta release would seem to indicate that it might be weeks until this becomes available for us normal people.

 

[boonedocks]

Fox News!

CNN you mean

 

[boaterva]

To copy the info I posted in the 'other' thread in the S forum (where most people seem to look, since we have to have several copies of these...), the two cars we have info on that got 2018.7 also had 2018.5 before. Seems to imply they are 'beta, test, whatever' cars.

Also interesting that some of these people don't sign up for such plebeian entertainments as ev-fw.com. Maybe that is in the NDA? Who knows? As I said elsewhere, the first rule of NDA is N.

lol go figure and no I meant Fox News.

 

[caesartheday]

Hope this can fix AP always lean to the left issue

Sounds like a personal problem

2018.6.1

 

[BigD0g]

2018.6.1

FYI that’s even, so your not on a perpetual beta release any more then the rest of us, perhaps it’s actually alpha....

Did I misunderstand? I though .1 = odd. Or is it based on the 2nd number?

2nd number I think. I made a post/graphic about this a few post up.
