    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.
