The person you replied to was me and the person who replied to you is also me (and I’m me… I think ;) ). But I think we’re talking past each other.
My first post in this thread was making the point that 48,000 files in a single code repo is an outlandishly hugely ridiculous number of files and that is probably a good indication (so I was agreeing with the previous poster) that Claude wrote the vast majority of that code.
As in “if the number of lines in my codebase is significantly less than that 48,000 number of files, how much more stark must be the difference between that 48,000 files the number of files in a repo built by a single normal-but-avid developer (like me)?” Like, if someone said “I ate 5 dozen eggs today” and you responded “holy shit, dude, I haven’t even had five single eggs today”.
Nobody was talking about any particular number of lines being outlandishly large. Just the number of files in the repo in the OP being outlandishly large. And your post was about how the number of lines in a repo could be very large, which isn’t really relevant to anything I was saying.
(Actually, it sounds like there were 55,000 files in the repo of which 48,000-ish were deleted. Either way. Huge number of files.)
Right? I consider myself an avid coder on my time off and the biggest thing I’ve ever made on my own has half that many lines of code. Let alone files.
Dude wtf lol lol lol
the biggest thing I’ve ever made on my own has half that many lines of code.
You were making the comparison that even as a line count that was large. YOU.
You missed the italics/emphasas. “The biggest thing I’ve ever made on my own has HALF that many LINES of code. Let alone FILES.” I wasn’t claiming that was a lot of lines of code to have in a repo. I was claiming that was a normal amount (for a largest repo made by a single “avid” coder).
You’re literally claiming that to your 25k lines of code is a lot of code as you’re comparing it to the other number. I’m sorry you can’t see it. I haven’t even made something with that many lines == that’s a lot of lines.
I’m claiming the 48,000-file project mentioned in the OP must have a “lot” (a major understatement) of lines, yes. Just as the hypothetical “you” who said “I haven’t even had five single eggs today” in one of my previous posts was claiming that the five dozen eggs the other person had eaten that day was a “lot” of eggs to eat in a single day. But the hypothetical “you” wasn’t claiming that the fewer than “five single eggs” “you” had eaten was an unreasonable amount to eat in a day. In the same way, I’m saying that 25,000 lines of code isn’t a suspiciously large amount that might lead one to believe it was almost entirely vibe-coded slop.
That’s kind of moot since the person I replied to was talking about not even getting to half the LINES of code, hence my comment.
