Scaling Software Development - The Blagoblag
https://alexgaynor.net/2020/feb/18/scaling-software-development/Favourite quote: "As the scale of a codebase increases, any properties of it which are not programmatically enforced will tend to regress."
Includes code formatting, linting, automated testing and fundamental properties of the language like type safety. Also notes that large code bases come from small code bases so the more things you can programmatically enforce from the beginning, the better for the long term.
