-Working for a big tech company: you're writing code to deliver more ads to more people so the company can grow and deliver even more ads to even more people
-Being a truck driver: you're moving boxes around
-Being a professional hockey player: you and your team are moving really fast with a disk shaped object trying to put it in a net while people try to prevent you from doing it
-Being a stock trader: making money by spending your whole life reading company reports and hoping you're right about whether they're doing well or not
-Being a quant: using your hard earned computer science skills to move money around and turn a profit instead of helping humanity
Almost every human endeavor can be trivialized if you choose to only see one side of it.
