The last non-trivial change to this file was between the last version
posted in 2024 (v14) and the first version posted in 2025 (v15),
so 2024 doesn't sound that off to me.
You are not supposed to bump the copyright year when republishing
without any actual changes.  It is meant to be the work’s first year
of publication.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
