Since I'm somewhat of a simpleton... isn't that how pipelines actually work? The only difference being, they're all (scripts) available from a centralized system and triggered i.e. with webhooks?
Instead of a local script on a server, the system opens i.e. a ssh session and runs the script step by step remotely?
So is that the joke or am I missing something?
Pipelines are meant to be versioned an replicable, as opposed to a hack job that only runs on a forgotten server in someone's closet depicted in the meme.
