I would assert, rather, that we have 60 years of compiler and runtime experience, both academic and industrial.
Consequently, I would propose that there is no excuse for a public release of a commercial programming environment to be so slow unless it introduces significant novelty sufficient to render the preceding work inapplicable.
Go's compilation was fast, which made developement much more pleasant. Performance of the actual compiled code was a different matter (hard to get both fast binaries and fast compilations).
However, I understand that 1.1 and 1.2 has much improved code performance.
The first thing I think with "cheap <industrial>" is "superfund". I hope no one ever did any work with electroplating, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, VOCs, asbestos, explosives, PCBs, or any other fun stuff that will come back to haunt the current owner.
Agreed. Hopefully, OP got the inspection and testing done before buying the warehouse. Also the purchase agreement doesn't absolve previous owner of any previous environmental contamination and cleanup costs.
I suspect you already know the answer to that. A brand new dump truck would be clean, with a minimum of oil, grease, dirt, or grime. I'm sure you could construct a large enough accommodation inside the bed of the truck to have the equivalent living space of a medium sized sailboat.
The great part of this is, when all of your clothes smell like diesel/gazole/etc., people will assume you are a liveaboard!
You would have excellent security. If you had a "home invasion", a simple press of a button would disorient your attackers and incapacitate them much in the way of the wicked witch of the East. If they have ruby slippers, I believe they would be yours by right of conquest.
Also, you could park almost anywhere you liked, at any time. No one questions a dump truck being anywhere, because they have so many uses. With a prudent selection of magnetic door logos, you could park for a nap in the middle of Market Street in San Francisco, Fifth Ave in NYC, or right in the middle of Piccadilly Circus.
That's the thing. If all you say is "fuck", then there's no problem, but you also have no range in your profanity.
When I swear, there's no way I would want a child to hear it. Their parents would hate having to explain what I said and they would dread their children repeating it in front of 'polite company'.
I wouldn't want my mother to hear it, because her brain would explode thinking that she created a son who, some 20+ years on his own, could create the thoughts behind my swearing.
My father would probably just pause for a second, chuckle, and then utter a string of such vile filth that I couldn't look at a roll of duct tape again without nausea.
I think the core message of the post is a really, really weak version of what Louis CK got into regarding the "n-word".[1] Without saying something offensive, you're still putting that offensive thing into the person's mind. If you write "fvck", you know people are reading it as "fuck". It's just cowardly.
Louis CK used "cunt", what a guy. I would love to hear his version of "the aristocrats".
The thing is I'm from the UK, and I get the impression that "cunt" is considered a severe taboo in the US (I might be mistaken). Where I live it is heard so often that after a while you don't even notice it, it becomes bland.

Some non-English expletives that I am fond of:
"puta" (Spanish): literal translation "whore", but is often used semantically more like "fuck", so "puta madre" can be parsed as "motherfucker".
"harami" (Arabic): literally means thief, but when I first came across it I knew it as "bastard", which is how it is used in some Asian languages like Urdu.
