  • I have no doubt that this guy is scummy, but this is a total nothingburger. He sold, for him, a tiny number of shares on a day where the stock was slightly above where it had been averaging, but even right now it’s still up for the month. Moreover, the expectation of every executive at Unity must naturally be that they expect to make more money with this new plan. Some developers and gamers may be mad, but Wall Street should be happy and the stock price should go up.

    Phrased another way: he sold stock a few days before announcing a plan to increase company profits.


  • they can be referred to as “the Americas” then i would deduct that all the objects within those Continents are also “American”

    Unfortunately not though, because “American” is already used exclusively in reference to the USA. There is no adjective to refer to things from the Americas collectively. One of these two possible uses is extremely common and the other is extraordinarily rare. If you need the rare option, you need multiple words and can’t shorten it.


  • In English, “American” by itself refers unambiguously to the United States of America because, (again) in English, there is no continent called “America.”

    America uses flush toilets unless you’re on an airplane. Besides, we can clearly see a huge water tank, which is how flush toilets work.
