What is the intellectual output of Buddhism apart from religion and a couple of witty Koans?

Meditation is something different -- actually I find it has adverse effects on critical thinking.

The only thing that works for me is (courtesy Feynman):

1) State the problem.

2) Think hard.

3) Write down the solution.

I cannot do these steps for programming or math in "any environment". I could write Koans though.
