This describes any "creative" job, where the hard part of the job is not rejecting the bad ideas but coming up with the good ones. Visual art is one famous example. Programming is another: if your code doesn't pass the test suite, you can tell, and then you can fix it. Some software needs higher assurance than test suites can provide, and then you need to get your code to pass Rust's borrow checker, or a more rigorous proof checker like ACL2. Telling a valid proof from an invalid one is a solved problem; constructing a program you can write a valid proof for is very much not.

Programmers and visual artists are also famously cavalier about correctness and reputation, being willing to try anything, including notorious bohemian lifestyles.
