I vote woodworking. It uses both your body and mind. It teaches you to quintuple check your work before cutting. In programming, mistakes are cheap. In woodworking, mistakes are best avoided. It also gets you on your feet handling large/heavy pieces of wood which does wonders for improving core strength and ...gracefulness. It also gives confidence and the ability to shape the world around you.
Some downsides are the learning curve, startup costs, time you will have to spend setting up your shop, and sharp spinning blades. No matter how good you get there's always a chance for a mistake. If I were rich I'd using nothing but sawstop or at the very least kregjig stuff.
