Well, I'm thinking 2.20.30 is called TPMS Buster - for me, at least. First, the right front tire was showing "Low" and after going into a local tire shop and getting it checked to find nothing's wrong with it. Today, the left front tire was "1 Psi, OMG, so low, pull over safely immediately!" But then after awhile the psi rose to 40 and stayed there along with all the other tires and the warning stayed on until I turned the car off and back on again. I hate this "crying wolf" that TPMS sometimes does. There's very little that freaks me out, but worrying about a flat tire really does cause a lot of anxiety on the road.

The big truck/bus was ahead on my right side, and only light traffic elsewhere.
It was on a gentle freeway left curve which might have made the truck appear to the car like it was somewhat in front of me. But, previously, my car always seemed to ignore out-of-lane vehicles. So, maybe the awareness zone has been widened to give an earlier warning when a car starts to enter my lane?
Previously, a vehicle entering my lane would need to be something like more than halfway into my lane before the TACC would react to the entering vehicle.

So 2.20.30 seems to have a lot more problems with speed limits in Oregon again. The first couple of times I thought it was just bad luck, but when I had 5mph on I5 three times no I started to wonder... 85 in a 35 zone, 20 when it was 40. 5 bad readings in two days. Not cool.
Tesla does have beta testers...about 700 or more of them. They have a formal name but I forgot what it is. Your theory is still valid though if they are releasing slowly with an A/B group.

That's interesting. Do you think any of them are reporting their firmware updates? Would that explain some of the very low number of reports on some of the releases?

I think it's called Early Access Program. I asked to be part of it before AutoPilot went live, but it's invitation-only and they probably already have too many beta testers in the San Francisco Bay Area as it is.
When the AP update first came out last October (7.0) Elon mentioned all the testing it had undergone by these people but you have to wonder about the testing, reporting and resolution process. I would expect with a large number of testers like that the software would be more refined right?

I think that what they are trying to do is exceptionally difficult both in terms of getting it to do stuff and in insuring that it doesn't do stupid dangerous stuff. I think the former is progressing as fast as technology and knowledge will allow. Beta testers are primarily for the latter.
New behavior with the latest update: I have it configured to chime when I go 5 mph over the speed limit. I hit a couple of places right before traffic lights where it slowed and chimed even though it was below the speed limit and there was no traffic in sight. I was looking right at the IC when it happened. All I can guess is that it was slowing in expectation of stopped traffic, and the chime for "car going faster than AP thinks it should" kicked in. (I doubt many other people use the chime option, so that option maybe wasn't checked in QA.)
Also, I was behind a car that was turning right at quite a distance ahead. I expected AP to slow until it was completely out of my lane, but it maintained speed like a normal human driver who would expect the lane to be clear soon. AP did see the car. If this is indeed new behavior, I am pleased.

Ok, but that is just a reflection on how the driver is driving. You can accomplish the same result by letting us less on the "go" pedal.

Yes, I know, but even still, it's very hard to maintain that 100% of the time.

I still don't get it. Your goal is to maintain speed or decelerate at a particular rate. Unless that rate happens to be at your current regen limit (max or otherwise) you will still be modulating with the go pedal or the brake.

I'm really sorry to read this, Bert. I recall reading more than once about how much you enjoyed her company in the car, and some of the lengths you went to with respect to seat covers, etc. That's really too bad.

Have you taken your car to a SC? Those sound like equipment failures to me. I don't get warning messages like those.
The warnings go away after powering off the car (via E-Brake/Power Off screen) and turning it back on (e.g. stepping on brake or opening door). SC says it's a known bug in the firmware and will be fixed in a future version.
