You're asking about Hack, and the only response I see so far is about HHVM. So!

I've seen Hack used in a multi-tens-of-MLOC codebase to gradually insert types. It made huge differences in the kinds of changes that were possible; you can, e.g., rename a class or method, or change the order of its arguments, with confidence comparable to that in a C++ codebase. Most developers hack-ified everything they could get their hands on, and did all new work in Hack, without any external encouragement.
