For Christmas, I've published a lesson on ScalaZONE about Scala's most contentious symbol—the underscore—where I try to convince everyone that it just means "whatever" in any context, or more precisely: "something", "nothing", "anything" or "everything". https://scala.zone/courses/scala-beginner/syntax/underscore …

If
@scala_lang was to be renamed it will be underscore programming language
Though Scala 3 actually removes a couple of uses of the underscore, so if Scala 2 were "_", maybe Scala 3 would be "_--"?
