Goodness, how is that being tolerated? I guess it can’t be stopped without a lot of political capital; but 16k lines of code is HUGE, and I cannot imagine that

Goodness, how is that being tolerated? I guess it can’t be stopped without a lot of political capital; but 16k lines of code is HUGE, and I cannot imagine that it’s actually 16k lines of value - I’ve written whole new subsystems of a product in fewer lines. Are these all written in an exceptionally verbose language like Go or Java? Are they VERY well documented? Are they doing things they shouldn’t be doing???

Brother at my startup one person shipped 75k lines in two weeks. We’re living in the golden age of slop

  I mean, I've done that for a couple of things, but probably 90+ percent was vendored libraries and javascript which could be ignored. Sadly, this is not one of those cases, and Im guessing yours isn't either?
