Explore the concept of design pressure in this 45-minute conference talk from EuroPython 2025, examining how invisible forces shape your code architecture even when following best practices. Learn to identify the subtle influences that tools and methodologies exert on your codebase, causing that inexplicable "gut feeling" that something is off despite your best intentions. Discover prominent examples of both beneficial and detrimental design pressures, understand how they unconsciously guide your architectural decisions, and develop strategies to harness positive pressures while mitigating negative ones. Gain awareness of the hidden forces at play in software development to make more conscious decisions about code structure and prevent architectural drift that occurs despite following established best practices.
