I play a nice person on twitter.
Rebooting isn't going to help anyone. I'll repeat myself again. Tesla is not going to roll out a software update to all P85D's simultaneously. It will be a phased rollout, and updates might not even come for weeks or months after the first few reports. Tesla is not stupid and they are not going to risk rolling out to all P85D's at the same time simply because if there's a bug in the firmware the last thing they need is bricking their flagship model across the board. The Press would have a field day with that. People need to be patient here. If you are a new Tesla owner unfamiliar with this process please stop telling everyone you haven't got the latest patch update yet. It might take a few weeks or months whenever your car is scheduled in the randomized rollout by Tesla. Rebooting is not going to magically trigger an update. That's just silly nonsense. Whoever spread that rumor should donate their P85D to me. But by all means if you want to sit there rebooting your car over and over again go ahead and have a field day. If you do and it does work on the 373636794'th time please don't post back here that your reboot triggered the update bc you'll just be wasting more space on this thread.
And who says there is no humor on this forum? Yobig! YO! Remember when you first got your car and waited for a software update? Where was the whole people-need-to-be-patient thing then?
If every post on this forum had to 'not waste more space', then there'd be quite a few people with a whole lot less posts. -ahem-

That just tells you how many bugs and screwups tesla had in their firmware. Lots of releases like this indicate a very bad software team, not a good one.
Frankly what they are doing is very dangerous. The fact that the screwed up both the brakes AND the sport steering in these releases is VERY disturbing.
LOL there's no new features in these patch releases. They are bug fixes. They are not going to announce to the world what bugs they are fixing with each patch release. The press would have a field day if the knew all the details of what was screwed up in each release. And I'm fully aware of software deployment strategies. Trust me this isn't Agile. More like rush don't test release get complaints fix real fast release again break more things don't test wash rinse repeat.
You don't know, you're guessing. And some of your guesses are pretty harsh indictments of some pretty fine engineers. And the reality is, we all filter through our own personal experience (which would make me wonder what in your software experience leads you to the conclusions you've written). There are other scenarios besides this.
Real people. Real people reading this forum & unable to answer you. I wouldn't be throwing stones in judgment unless I was pretty darn sure of the seat I was throwing them from.
