Did you hear Mike Santarini of EDN just got laid off on Friday??

  This means the 3 biggest independents (Gartner/EETimes/EDN) that
  used to cover EDA have pretty much killed off their EDA coverage.
  Cadence stock is crashing.  Fewer young faces do chip design now.
  Are we watching the EDA industry collapsing in a self-inflicted
  implosion?  Is there a way out or should people working in EDA
  now start studying to pass the California realtor's license exam?

  See the DVcon Troublemakers panel tomorrow on Wed., Feb. 20th.
