mounds

what is more productive:

builing a dirt mound that will last thousands of years but which provide no utilitarian purpose..
or...
writing a computer program that no one will ever use and which will dissappear when the computer crashes but which you get paid for...

i guess its an existential debate...which makes you feel satisfied or important or connected?
