A while back, a client called me in to look at a system whose author has left years ago. It was a mess. And for no good reason, it used Docker extensively, and would only work with a specific pre-release version. I searched and discovered that the guy had stayed just long enough to do a talk on this then-hot new technology before getting a better job elsewhere.

It was the clearest example of Resume Driven Development I'd ever seen, but no means the only one.
