Are there any good robo-vacuum cleaners that will still clean your floor if the internet is down?

I've had my Miele vacuum cleaner for 15 years now, and I bought it second hand. I can still buy bags and filters for it, and when the floor roller piece broke (something heavy fell on it) I was able to buy a replacement one for cheap. I see no reason why it can't go another 10 years.

It feels like a very low probability that a robo-cleaner I buy now will come from a company that (in 10+ years) will a) exist and b) support 10+ year old vacuum cleaners.

It depends on what exactly you want. My Roborock can't connect to my Wi-Fi anymore for some unfathomable reason. It no longer runs automatically, and I can't edit its map or tell it where exactly to clean. I just hit the power button once a day to start it manually, and it cleans everything it can access.

InsideOutSanta commented on Mistral releases Devstral2 and Mistral Vibe CLI   mistral.ai/news/devstral-... · Posted by u/pember

I gave Devstral 2 in their CLI a shot and let it run over one of my smaller private projects, about 500 KB of code. I asked it to review the codebase, understand the application's functionality, identify issues, and fix them.

It spent about half an hour, correctly identified what the program did, found two small bugs, fixed them, made some minor improvements, and added two new, small but nice features.

It introduced one new bug, but then fixed it on the first try when I pointed it out.

The changes it made to the code were minimal and localized; unlike some more "creative" models, it didn't randomly rewrite stuff it didn't have to.

It's too early to form a conclusion, but so far, it's looking quite competent.
