I lost it when looking at the commit message(s) which scored an all time record maximum on the notorious WTF/minute scale - preemptively, by maxing out the ratio.

This is a brilliantly clever homage to the WTF/Minute concept as proxy for code quality metrics and therefore is used among others as an indicator for maintainability where a high count inevitably leads to frustration and bugs.

Hilariously and awesomely executed.

ColdFusion used to work this way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_ColdFusion What surprised me is that when I went to look at the Wikipedia page for CF, apparently its latest release was this year! I haven’t heard anybody mention it in a very long time.

The company which bought my last startup, their main product (Trade Promotion Management tool) was in CF.

Definitely a little talked about language, but it does get some use.

Adobe has a whole lineup of enterprise products that people don't really read about. CF is deeply integrated into these products as well as other 3rd party enterprise products.
