Another Year, Another Book of Breakfast Bytes

13 Mar 2020 • 3 minute read

There is a new edition of A Year of Breakfasts.

How do you get a copy? You can get a free copy by attending any CadenceLIVE event this year. The picture below is a group of happy recipients of signed copies of last year's book when I was at CDNLive Taiwan.

I will be attending all seven CadenceLIVE events (the new name this year for CDNLive), giving away books, and signing people up for Sunday Brunch, the weekly Breakfast Bytes email that you should already be signed up for. Alternatively, you can join the 6,000 people already on the list by clicking on the "Sign Me Up" button at the end of this post. I also plan to be giving copies away at DAC, as I did last year. I was going to give them away at DVCon...but we pulled out at the last moment. Of course, it remains to be seen what the travel situation is for the rest of this year as I write this.

If you can't make it to CadenceLIVE or DAC, or the events have to end up being canceled, you can get a copy from Amazon for $9.99.

Like last year, this is around 30 (out of 250!) of the most popular posts from last year. They are regrouped into various topics, as opposed to being in the order that they appeared during the year. This year the topics are:

Intelligent System Design
AI and Deep Learning
Domain-Specific Computing
Silicon Photonics
Security
Automotive
5G Mobile
Advanced Packaging
Predictions

Linkfest

I'm often asked if there is a PDF version of the book available, and the answer is "no". It seems somewhat silly to produce an online electronic version of posts that are all already online. But here's a clickable version of the book, with pointers to the original posts. Note that in several places, multiple original posts have been combined into a single section in the book. Of course, this is also the table of contents of the book, if you want a more detailed look at what is inside.
