Yeah, we are spreading out, discovering new boundaries and new levels of expression in making programming easier. Some incredible new concepts are being tested out in the lab.
Frameworks are a separate thing, and equally important. Most software is similar to some other software. So frameworks make a LOT of sense, especially if you can pick one up, and already be heading towards the goal without doing the more mundane.
So we are witnessing the same pattern in 2 fields. Languages and Frameworks. And when you (falsely) multiple them, it looks insane.
In about 3-5 years, we are going to see a collapse of many of these as people find out that some frameworks are great for SPA but not for gigantic web apps. Or they don't scale well, etc.
We were spoiled a bit by C being so easy to port and run everywhere and being well designed. We used to have have a TON of specific languages, and people rolled their own at companies.
So, it will ebb and flow as we discover the edges of reality with regards to programming.

Every so often another one shows up. Some contractor comes in writes and app in some language that no one staff knows and then goes away. Then that language fad dies out and then we have an unsupportable application.

One thing I learnt, it's best to minimise the amount of languages in a given project. The more languages, the more training and effort to maintain.
I've seen some projects where each subsystem was written in a different language, just because the developer in charge had to have his/her own pet language.

.... not how many do you use, but how many are you GOOD at?

No, that's not the question right here.
But it could certainly be a good question for another survey.

C#, ASP.NET, JavaScript, JQuery, Angular2/TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, LESS, SCSS, Gulp, Grunt, Bash, PowerShell, Swift (iOS), Java (Android), T-SQL, PL/SQL..
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

Most of them are not programming language  Just saying

Which ones? Has anyone else here included them? 
Let's take a look:
C# - Progamming Language
ASP.NET - Programming Framework
JavaScript - Progamming Language
JQuery - Programming Framework
Angular2 - Programming Framework
TypeScript - Progamming Language
HTML5 - Markup Language
CSS3 - Styling
LESS - Scripting Language
SCSS - Scripting Language
Gulp - Programming Framework
Grunt - Programming Framework
Bash - Scripting Language
PowerShell - Scripting Language
Swift (iOS) - Programming Language
Java (Android) - Programming Language
T-SQL - Programming Language (Stored Procs)
PL/SQL - Programming Language (Stored Procs/Packages)

well sir, you have answered exactly what I have thought. Not trying to make you feel uncomfortable(It's a damn lie), but, you can't say, I know two programming languages i) javascript ii) jQuery
Just kidding, you have wide range of experience for sure

There are some purists that say that you shouldn't write any javascript if you're using jQuery

The list on Wikipedia includes XML, but does not include XAML. I'd argue the later is more of a language than XML is. It includes HTML5 specifically which I take to mean (HTML+CSS) in that context. It doesn't include Razor which still seems to be more of a language than XML is. So really there's still some ambiguity. Also, it includes P-SQL and T-SQL separately but doesn't include other flavors of SQL which can vary widely. (Not T-SQL so much, but P-SQL/Trigger code is far different between flavors).
That being said: C# (Desktop, Web, Console, LINQ, etc), T-SQL, P-SQL (SQL Server and Firebird), HTML5 (HTML + CSS + Razor), JavaScript (JavaScript + JQuery + JSON), Delphi (seriously), Java, XML, XAML, VBS.

C# on my own projects, PHP, Python and Javascript on company projects, SQL is a must.
Sometimes a bit of Java or some SASS for css, but I don't do it regularly, so I'm not counting them.

I regularly use C#, VB.NET, VB6, and JavaScript. I would throw in CSS and SQL for good measure, but don't really consider them to be programming languages.
I'm looking forward to the day when VB6 is gone...still using it for 3 major applications and around 75 'add-on' modules.

Hi,
In a service based company you are told to switch modules and projects as per client requirement.
So you are always in a phase of learning new things.
Thanks,
Rahul
