Who Is Green Hills?-February 25, 2019 |
Cadence announced during their recent quarterly earnings announcement and call that we are acquiring approximately 16% ownership in Green Hills Software for about $150M. Lip-Bu Tan, Cadence's CEO, joined their board of directors.
Talking of Green Hills always reminds me of when I was a kid. In our school assembly, we always sang a hymn (unlike the US, Britain has an official religion). One of them was:
"There is a green hill far away, Without a city wall"
I always wondered why you would expect a green hill to have a city wall. It's an old use of "without" to mean "outside". It has died out in England, but when I did my post-graduate work in Edinburgh, I discovered that the Scottish say "outwith" still.
