When working on multiple websites the same time, having every website
using the port 8080 by default isn't very convenient.
In addition here we need a number that is somewhat easy to remember
and possibly meaningful for each website, so in general that not easy
to choose.
But since ports over 1024 can usually be used by non-root users, we
can also use years.
And the book "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" by Phillip
K. Dick was published in 1968.
As I remember the name 'Replicant' was found by Bradley Kuhn and comes
from both Blade Runner and the fact that we 'Replicate' the Android
operating system with fully free software.
And since so having a number that is at the same time the year of
publication of that book, and also where events probably happened in
every place around the world or in people's lives could help remember
it.
