The boy scout technique: fix your types when you're working on a bug or a feature, one file at a time. Also try to use unknown instead of any for more sensitive parts, it will force you to typecheck.

The fuck the lemons technique: resign and seek an employer that didn't fail at the most basic level of engineering management and development culture for years and years — because life is short and we're all running out of time... always.

When life hands you lemons, just say fuck the lemons and bail
