Well... I agree with some of the thoughts stated in other comments (about this list being pretty much web-dev centric), and add some other point: I'm not convinced you need to be able to be into that bandwidth of technologies.

But I personally think you should have at hand some kind of tooling, workflow, framework set to give you the chance of building and running a basic application, and be it a prototype or a demonstrator. You should have a toolbox to get some business problem solved in code, and you should be able to get this code running on your future customers environment as fast as you can.

Hey Kristian, thanks for the comment!

Sure, you don't have to be into this many as above, but what works for me, to achieve what you're striving for above, is tasting a bit of every technology so I can get a feel of what the best solution might be when I come across my next problem :)
