They don't though. The dependency graphs are partially overlapping for all the build outputs, but any given one doesn't pull in everything (or even remotely close to it).

You said "if they contribute to the compiled binary", and the whole point
@nicebyte was making is that they don't.1 reply 0 retweets 4 likes -

I love the implication that Jon doesn't know that all billion lines of code don't compile to a single executable. What is wrong with everyone? What linker do you think Jon believes they are using?? They'd launch LLD and six years later they'd have their binary.

No, the implication is that he's making a deliberately misleading argument, not that he actually believes that "***BILLIONS***" LOC across all projects is a meaningful measure w.r.t. software complexity (which would indeed require an implausibly poor understanding of software).

If you dump all your games in one repo, they don't magically get more complex. He obviously understands that, and yet that's basically the argument he's making here, which is at the very least disingenuous.

What are you talking about? He didn't even STATE an argument! YOU made an argument for him, and then said it was disingenuous. You could have instead assumed he was smart and took the plausible argument of "an organization with a billion plus lines of code is in trouble".

He was referencing your argument about complex software stacks, and saying it was even worse than 30M lines because there's billions of lines across all software at google.

IT'S THE SAME ARGUMENT. Do you think all 13 million lines of code in the Linux kernel is compiled into every Linux kernel? What are you even talking about?

(at this point there's surely way more than 13 million, but, whatever the number is these days... 20 million... 30million...)
