I do fine knowing none of them (actually I "know" C#, the little I needed to port an old VS6 Add-In to VS2008 and a little of C++/CLI, the minimum to create a DLL accessible both from VB6 and from .NET), it really depends on the field you work into. If you work on microcontrollers or have a strong integration with hardware you wouldn't probably need them except on occasional basis.

Well - you only need to know what your need to use. Learn other things that you want to learn. I do .NET because that's how you write M$ compatible stuff. I never got around to Java, but C, C++, C#, etc. should get me there if the need arises. On the other hand, they used to have a java programmer here - and he left for what he thought were greener pastures. They didn't bother replacing him. The real answer is: you need to know what they expect you to know even before they know what they think need.

I think it's worth learning a couple of languages. I've gone for .NET plus web (HTML/JS/jQuery + Frameworks/CSS + LESS/SASS), SQL and Apple Swift. I'll learn Java when the opportunity appears (probably when I get asked to port an iOS app to Android). No harm in making yourself more marketable these days, and it's nice to work on a variety of projects :)

We used to joke about this in another shop I worked at. If faced with a issue or problem we would ask, "What would Jon Skeet do?" Always got a few laughs. :)

IMHO, a developer should ultimately* become 'language independent', within reasonable limits**. Meaning that (s)he should be able to quickly implement a (an elegant) solution in any of those languages, (with help from Internet resources). * over a period of ten years, say. ** about 4-5 languages, including a 'GUI language', and a web language.

Eh, I know .NET... I like .NET... But since all of my .NET projects are on hold for various reasons, I was put on a few Java projects... So I re-taught myself Java... And you know what? I still like .NET. elephanting type erasure...

I use C# (and have used VB.net X| ), and wouldn't mind knowing Java for Android, but I really can't be bothered. (Yes, I've heard of Xamarin, but I don't pay for development tools.)

It happens to be the case in my company, where we have a .NET app server and a set of clients that include Android. /ravi

Is it nonsensical to say that one doesn't know why one doesn't know why something does not make sense ? Is to ask the above question to advance the hypothesis that what does not make sense is always recursive ? Let me get back to you on this in a few more kalpas. cheers, Bill

The discussion makes no sense at all. Know what you must and if you need something else learn it. .NET C# and Java aren't all that different, except for the library, and event handling, and properties, and checked Exceptions, and...
