Modern day VB is totally worthless. Just a wordy version of C#. When VB .Net superseded VB6 I dropped it like a hot potato and used C#. There was zero value to it for me.

How about COBOL, in German?

My FORTRAN in 1966. First program was in machine code; 0s and 1s on punch cards.
Had to use the campus’s only punch machine in the admin building after hours.
Then at work, I think by 1979 we had a CRT terminal, and had converted 600 boxes of cards to computer tape.

Taught myself PHP a few years ago. Do a little of a lot on that list, but I am 65. Started out as a mainframe programmer and now do i-devise support along with many other things.
My advise is to never become complacent or stuck in a rut. Continue updating your skills even if you must teach yourself.

I learned some PERL but never really used it. But I do like languages that do a lot of useful stuff with little code. Perl and PowerShell fit that bill.

Almost made me vomit.
I threw up a little bit in my mouth when I typed it. ;-)
