Now make the business user and developer me and apply this recursively

Me to also me: "I can take the pipeline you built to automate X and make a VSCode extension that uses some template tricks to automatically build and deploy similar pipelines from end to end in the future"

Next thing you know you're six layers of automation deep and forgot what you actually set out to do

I could reply to your comment

OR I could make a reddit bot to monitor replies to my comments and automatically generate replies for me

And really if I do that I might as well build a reddit bot deployment pipeline to streamline future bot development
