;) There's not terribly much to unlearn. Some things that I showed how to
do are now part of the core (such as hyperbolic trig, base conversions, etc.).
Other things are just silly or irrelevant. Sometimes there is now a "better
way" to do things.

To find all the changes, you'd need the old TOC, the new TOC, and a long
rainy Saturday. :)
