​We are currently curating the entries for the 2025 Tech Horror Radar.

​The "Burn with Fire" ring is filling up quickly, but we have some spots left in the "Zombie Technologies" quadrant.

​What legacy tech is currently refusing to die in your organization?

Submissions are open in the replies. 👇

Welcome to Worst of Breed.

​We are an independent archive documenting the most catastrophic patterns in software architecture. From "Resume-Driven Development" to "Over-Engineering".

​We don't fix your code. We just document why it hurts.

​The Tech Horror Radar 2025 Edition is coming soon.
