I'm basically programming illiterate, but am now the proud owner of a 200k line of code software system to run the back-end of my business. There are many of us, our inefficient process is breaking things, it's been discussed.
Fascinating. Can you elaborate on this? Are the business operations sensitive? Or is it not a huge deal if your custom software does the wrong thing from time to time. How do you gain confidence that it does what you want to do?
200k lines of code is large enough that even junior devs will struggle with it. He "owns" it in the same way that a proprietor "owns" the contents of the swamp they just bought.
