Docker is not an excuse to "use what language you want". Unless you're writing a throwaway script that will never be touched by anyone else again, there should be company level language policies in place to ensure they have the expertise on hand to maintain it, run code reviews, extend it if necessary in the future, scan it for vulnerabilities etc.
That's kinda worrying in itself, before the windows server without docker part.
when your code is a mess but everything work out in the end
When you keep getting +1s on a rant you posted a month ago.
I hate this company so much. I was tasked to write a simple program wrapped in an API. They gave me freedom of choice to use any language and technology because I said it'll be deployed in docker anyway.
Now, when they gave me the server, it's Windows Server 2016, of course, without docker installed (or even supported in any way). The access is done via TeamViewer for which I receive ID and password by calling a guy.
Oh, and everything runs as admin. "It's easier that way and we always do it like this."
