    If anyone wants to actually run this, here ya go:

              #include              <stdio.h>
      short i=0;long          b[]={1712,6400
    ,3668,14961,00116,      13172,10368,41600,
  12764,9443,112,12544,15092,11219,116,8576,8832
,12764,9461,99,10823,17,15092,11219,99,6103,14915,

14545,10460,10063,99,12544,14434,16401,16000,8654,
12764,13680,10848,9204,113,10441,14306,9344,12404,

    12655,99,22487,14434,79,10083,12750,10368,
      10086,14929,79,10868,14464,12357};long
        n=9147811012615426336;long main(){
          if(i<0230)printf("%c",(char)((
            0100&b[i++>>1]>>(i--&0x1)*
              007)+((n>>(b[i>>001]>>
                7*(0b1&01-i++)))&1
                  *main(111))));
                    return 69-
                      0b0110
                        ;}

    Bonus points if you can deobfuscate it!

      If your love letter isn't given in the form of highly obfuscated C, is it really a love letter?
I don't know, but what I do know is that I love you! <3

    If there was ever a time to replace this Drake format with the Geordi LaForge alternative, this was it.

      I mean, of course it wouldn’t be fair to expect everyone to be migrated over yet, but at some point it’s going to be an obsolete language. Memory unsafety is a pretty nasty quirk; just one that was previously unavoidable, as far as I know.

        Yeah, COBOL went the way of the dodo too.

          Exactly. COBOL still gets used in legacy stuff, but at this point you’d have to be either insane or a historical re-enactor to build something new in it.

          I’ve used C more than anything else, for reference.
