Why, oh why, does the NZ gov't continuously get bamboozled into making shitty web-based systems that are 100% dependent on proprietary Microsoft technologies? Yes, 'new' DOC booking system, I'm looking 🤔 at you.
It'll perform poorly, cost a bomb, scale ungracefully, and be very expensive to maintain... until Microsoft suddenly end-of-lifes the technologies on which it depends. At which point the taxpayer will bail you out (again).
