alt Hacker NewsThe role is "producer" and it's a valid and influential role, even if it's not directly creative. Producers decide what to focus on, raise the money, and put together the principals. As an actor or director you may not like working with them, but you can't deny their importance.

Nah. You either are like Rick Rubin or you're not producing anything

I feel more like an orchestrator when vibe coding than a developer, I'm telling each part what I want from them, judging them on results, and ensuring each part runs at the right time with the right lead in
You walk into a food factory and you ask for a pizza. It comes out and you tell them that you wanted mushrooms, so they make another one. It arrives and you complain that it's square and not round, so they make another one. That one has no tomato sauce so you send it back again. Eventually you get the pizza you want.
I make my own pizza because I like doing it. And if I can't be bothered to make one, I'll just pick a ready made one off a menu from a pizza restaurant.
