I worked on a ~350kloc (dry) code base for 10 years. It was perfectly fine. I also worked on a much smaller C++ code base for 9. It was very bad. Types or not

Types or not isn't the big thing here. It's having a good engineering culture.
- nottorp 2y agoThe team trumps anything of course, because they can work around anything if they decide to. But my experience is with different code bases mostly done by the same people across time. And in that case you start wishing for types on the larger projects...
- boxed 2y agoYou mean different people surely? If it's the same people, the lack of types should be less of a problem.
