I had forgotten a lot of dates, so I had to reconstruct this via StackOverflow.

Bear in mind, HTML/CSS is scattered throughout this timeline. I was using a web builder years before I started coding, although I don't remember when I started coding in it.

For some reason, I got an impression that you're traveling back in time :) Assembly, C++, ActionScript, Adobe Flash... I'd expect dot NET to be the latest skill not the oldest on a list like that.

I'm a reformed .NET developer. I've since repented and gone through rehab for it.

My path has actually taught me the value of dropping abstraction and working closer to the bare metal. Although I still deeply enjoy coding in Python!
