A Washington Post logo is displayed at the newspaper's editorial headquarters on May 17, 2025, in Washington, DC. Early this year, Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos publicly asserted control over the storied newspaper’s opinion section. On Christmas Day, the Post editorial board published a gift for its owner, the world’s fourth-richest man: a flagrantly misleading column opposing Medicare for All. Later this week, millions of people will be on the hook for substantially higher health insurance premiums, or forego coverage altogether, thanks to Republicans’ policy decisions. At no point did the Post editorial board mention that Bezos, who is Amazon’s chairman and its largest shareholder, has a stake in the healthcare debate.

Advanced 2-nanometre (2nm) chips perform better and are more energy-efficient than past types, and are structured differently to house even more of the key components known as transistors. Japanese chipmaker Rapidus is also building a plant in northern Japan to make 2nm chips, with mass production slated for 2027. -TSMC's path to mass 2nm production has not always been smooth. A higher density of transistors results in a smaller chip or one the same size with faster processing power. As for 2nm chips, Japan's Rapidus says they are "ideal for AI servers" and will "become the cornerstone of the next-generation digital infrastructure", despite the huge technical challenges and costs involved.

Home Opinion 3 soul-nourishing New Year's resolutionsAs Christians, when we consider New Year’s resolutions, we often think about reading the Bible more, praying more often, or maybe getting more involved in our church. But rather than taking time to expound on those, I’d like to commend three other resolutions that may not make the usual lists. In order to keep them healthy and functioning properly, adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep each day. Since we’ve been noting how some of these resolutions affect our physical health, it’s remarkable that chronic loneliness is more dangerous than smoking 15 cigarettes a day! “How Blue Light Affects Sleep,” Sleep Foundation, https://www.sleepfoundation.org/bedroom-environment/blue-light.
