Ask HN: “code” or “codes”?

There seems - subjectively - to be a recent (years) uptick in the use of "codes" referring to source code. But because the terms are generic, it's hard to get data (e.g. google trends is unhelpful.)

What's others' perception on this? Is there an increase in use of "codes"? Do you see any cultural/regional correlation?

(And, perhaps controversially, does "codes" still sound wrong? - it conflicts with the grammar of an uncountable / mass noun)
