    Wow!! That's a blast from the past! As a placement student I was involved in building a massive financial processing app in ColdFusion. It was all new and exciting and we did great things with it. Then over a year or two I learned a bit more and realised we'd been very fortunate and CF was, in fact, terrible. So much so Adobe killed it as soon as they got it.

    @neumann Mid-90s. I used it in 99-00. Forgot it was originally bought by Macromedia, then Adobe.

    @samk do you believe me if I tell you that I used it when I did my internship just two years ago? That will be my first and last encounter with Coldfusion. 😂

    @semicolon Holy merciful WTAF!! I did see that there's a 2016 version but I can't believe there are people choosing CF over the other options there are these days. Or were you supporting a 20-year-old legacy system?

    @samk 😂😂😂 20-year-old? Barely 10. Well almost.. But still....... Up till today, I still don't know what the boss was thinking choosing ColdFusion over other languages. To each his own 😳
