I work in a FAANG equivalent for a decade, mostly in C++/embedded systems. I work on commercial products used by millions of people. I use the AI also.

When others are finding gold in rivers similar to mine, and I'm mostly finding dirt, I'm curious to ask and see how similar the rivers really are, or if the river they are panning in is actually somewhere I do find gold, but not a river I get to pan in often.

If the rivers really are similar, maybe I need to work on my panning game :)
