IMO the most boring useless stuff you can imagine. Most software development jobs I've had were either about low-level system software or dealing with huge data sets in near-realtime so it had interesting tasks too. And even with that I was constantly questioning myself: is what I do pointless? Honestly, I don't know how the ones who do web development or business software cope with their lives.
Even big data and machine learning don't sound that bad 🤷

Although it looks like nowadays it's just building something upon huge building blocks developed by someone else — I bet it's pretty boring too 😩
