ColdFusion was a very influential language for me. I first encountered real world use of it in 2001 when I worked at TradingCars, a startup in the Netherlands. A guy could build in a few hours in Coldfusion a faster version of
the same webapp that took several of us Enterprise Java guys several weeks to build. I think they even ended up dumping Java for the Coldfusion version in the end, but I can't verify that.
Anyway, I always loved the elegance and simplicity of the SQL embedded in the HTML (from what I remember).
Also interesting how the creator of Coldfusion, Jeremy Allaire, ended up moving to Crypto and creating Circle and USDC, one of the cornerstones of the whole crypto world.
