I have quite a few. maybe 50? Will add another 50 shortly. I have a backlog of articles. I also dont generate the articles on my local machine. I let github do that work. I think Github uses some third party service to do it for them as well. The updates are pretty instant on github after a change / commit. That said I did use local article generation when I experimented with creating a tag system for the site. But my time was up so i had to move on.

So Jekyll 3.0 apparently added Incremental regeneration https://jekyllrb.com/news/2015/10/26/jekyll-3-0-released/

I haven't tried the above approach but, my initial understanding was that it only generates sites that has changed. Not every article every time.

This will probably speed your site generation up. Let me know how it goes :)

The big elephant in the room: Everyone can't be in the vanguard of excellence. How will society as a whole work when only a select few will be employed. I don't buy the whole: "there-will-be-new-tasks-for-people-to-do-matra". There won't. There are less tasks to do now then ever before. And the tasks that are available to do are increasingly harder to perform or insanely mundane.
