The pdf is from 2003, not clear whether much is dated later.

Curious, why does the date of the pdf matter? Not saying it applies here, but typically results in mathematics (unlike those in tech industry) do not become outdated and whatever is true today in mathematics is true tomorrow. So, for instance if you proven a mathematical theorem in 1661, then that theorem is still true today.

It doesn't except that it's standard to put the date in the link in HN if it's more than a year or so old.
