One of the advantages of having your entire site in text files on your computer, is being able to munge those files with any number of nifty Unix-style commands. For example, I can easily count all the postings on my site with ls -l | wc -l and see that this is the 1,812th posting here.
Or, I can count all the words in all the postings with wc * | sort and see that the smallest posting has 20 words, while the largest has 4,963 words. In total I’ve published 561,922 words in the last decade or so. Half a million.
And I can see that 2,346 files total are pushed to my server to make this site work by running find . -type f | wc -l.
I love being a nerd.
