My friend wrote this poem for his new girlfriend. The whole poem is full of programming and computer references. I wanted to ask the /. community what they thought of the references and any mistakes he has made (or kudos where due). He will be reading your replies!

My love for you is dynamic and compiled on the run. Never will a
compile time bug stop us even trying. Just in time is the way we
compile.
Our interface is love, polymorphic in every way, always constrained by
Ilove (I love, the interface name for love by convection adding an "I"
turns it into "I love" lol)
I'll catch your exceptions and never let them bubble away. Will you be
the code the completes my abstract heart?
Like garbage collection I will take out the trash for you. I'll manage
our memories and create more than enough, never losing even one. Never
will there be a pointer to a memory of ours that can't be found.
I walked our stack and couldn't find a trace of any leak, my love for
you is on the heap, it's not going away anytime soon.
I tried redefining our love but it has already been declared, I love you
They said I was object orientated, your more than an object, your my
script to happiness
I tired reading ur past but got an out of bounds, I incremented the
pointer and saw your future, I'll always be here with you
Love was undefined so I just set it to you and I
We break and point to look at the locals, and see what's in our
hearts, their the same reference destined to be linked together
forever.
I did and extern on the entry to my heart so you can always find it
My manifest has you all over it, there's no denying your in my heart
through and through
I overrode our destructor and will never release our memories, our
love will never be lost
When we were constructed I started an infinite loop, no one else has
control, our love will never end
I'm asynchronous, i'll call you back all the time
When that event hit us from a different thread, we just synchronised
our hearts and kept on loving
Tell me my bugs and I'll comment them out for you
The message loop is full of one thing, you
Ajax called to say json had a message. It was I love you
I love you like jquery loves the dom.
I love you like knockout loves binding
I love you like and an event loves a handler
I love you like html loves css
I love you like JavaScript loves chrome
I love you more than I love html5
Your the one for me
I'll listen to your heart beat so our connection will never dropout.
I'll love you with nbn speeds
My password is our first kiss, I'll never change it, and no one can
ever steal it.
I went to ping you but had to stop at every hop, it was worth it to
know you were there all along
I looked up your name and found it was non-authorative, that's
something I can fix but I'll have to change a part of your name and
move you to my place
We don't need a controller to tell us our view is full of model love
I did a dig and found your name, then i did an arp and found your
address, the next protocol is all physical.
You have a static arp entry in my heart, you can change ur number, you
can change you name, I'll always find you and never loose you
You can pull the plug I've auto saved our love
I hope you don't mind, I self signed our love, other people may not
trust it, but we both know who we are
If you were optimised nothing would be removed
Like a stack overflow to an infinite recursion I couldn't escape
thinking about u
