C. S. Lewis has compared "progress" to a good egg becoming rotten.
Not all change and increase in complexity are good.

I bought VB.Net and how to books(the first edition ?). I did figure out how
  to display an image and maybe how to print "Hi there", but didn't really
have the time and interest to learn its peculiarities.

I don't understand current programming strategies -- I may have never
understood programming strategies. In the long run, it's probably better to
  understand the programming, but there are many short terms goals that
don't require that.
