Perhaps you'd like to quote where I said that I was a "test engineer"? I said I was a beta tester which is something completely different, not that you would know.

You, like Liebermann, are just another zero in a world of useful people.

All that means is the programmers never thought to append an {A} onto the version.

Yeah, because a company like Garmin is so lax in their PLM processes
that they don't check to see if the engineers are properly tracking
software versions - gawd you're fucking braindead.

    I do know this,

No, you don't. Maybe in your lame excuse for a career someone told you that a test engineer is an end-user in a beta program, but that carries about as much truth as PWM being used to test cables.

so why are you claiming that Garmin isn't using beta testers as free test engineers?

Because they aren't. A beta user is _not_ a test engineer. Beta users provide feedback to the development team, they don't perform root cause failure analysis, or debug functions, or fault injection testing.

Why do you come out with these idiotic word salads like Kamala Harris?

You man like when you wrote "What it DOES show is that I am a beta software tester so I have the BETA software as a test engineer" then wrote you ne ver claimed you were a test engineer?

 What is "Release topologies vary from company to company. Beta releases may or may not have a special designation." supposed to mean?

Exactly what is says.

A beta release is ALWAYS supposed to have a special designation! Garmin made a mistake. And you can't even guess why.

It may not have a noticeable designation to the end-user, IOW it might not have the characters 'beta' in the topology. Garmin didn't make a mistake. You're simply being a clueless asshole, as usual.

Poor little Flunky is so lost.

Like a guy who thinks being in a beta program for a consumer product makes him a test engineer?
