Everything Is a Trap

Libraries and frameworks become "traps" when they change or no longer fit; the talk presents concrete defenses: encapsulate dependencies with adapters, define contracts and verify them with unit tests-as-contracts, and use foldable repositories (in-memory implementations for tests and to swap backends like Postgres, MySQL, Mongo, Cassandra). It advocates hexagonal architecture, TDD, tiny components and virtualenvs, and demonstrates that an in-memory repository makes tests orders of magnitude faster and eases backend replacement.
