The old-school method of learning from books has many advantages over articles on the Internet. But, unfortunately, we must admit that books are no longer relevant. In programming, for example, frameworks are updated almost every day, and yesterday's experienced professionals are forced to retrain again.

I see a compromise solution is to start with books if you are a total zero in programming. And, with understanding, switch to modern sources of information as soon as possible.
