I'm a webmonkey, so I end up working with perl, php, javascript, and SQL mainly.  I work for a small 30 person company that does not have a technology focus, so I do all the client-facing webstuff as well as the care and feeding of all the internal servers and employee machines.  While being able to make all the tech and purchasing decisions is cool, it's also means if I'm swearing at myself when I go "Who programmed this mess?", "What idiot decided to go with this vendor?", etc.  (Fortunately that doesn't happen very often.)

I also know enough Python, C, C++ and Java to be dangerous, but being a webmonkey and sysadmin is what pays the bills.

I'm currently employed as a programmer of scientific simulations (as well as programming as a hobby). I know C/C++, Java, C#, JavaScript, FORTRAN, x86 ASM, and lua.

I make 3D simulators for a living (not by myself mind you), although my background is in applied physics. Mostly programming in C++, but I like Fortran and python as well.

Yeah, I'm trying to build myself a cloaking device. Actually, all I have is a couple of polarizers I accidentally pilfered from a lab and never remembered to return.

I like to brag. I do C/C++, Ruby/Ruby on Rails, some basic HTML, and Flash.

And I'm young (think pubescent teen), but, heh, i'm not immature as people generally stereotype to us.

Minor. I fooled around with VB to make a treasure generator for D&D that combined words from text files. It was quirky and probably the lamest way to do it.

I've messed around with simple HTML. Nothing to be proud about.

I also fooled around with RPGmaker or something for a while. Again, nothing special.

And I programmed for Ultima Online freeshards in Sphere 55i for about two years. I'm confident that I could script every gameplay system in the server given time and interest, but the emulator scene has moved on and I'd have to relearn a lot. And I never got into server administration.

Me calling myself a programmer would probably be an overstatement, but I can read most code that's english-based, and I can write something in it as long as it follows at least some of the common structures like if clauses, loops, and so on.

I did make the pretty Modbase thing, but that's more a project of boredom than actual work - it's VB.NET, so as to think better.
All in all, I can probably manage C/C++/C#, Basic of all kinds, Delphi, and even something like Logo (you wouldn't believe the crazy stuff we did with that at school...). Can't say I'm adequately proficient in anything that doesn't come with an equivalent of MSDN help libraries.
