Yes, that's the de facto style guide of American news sources these days. If China does something innovative, then it's dangerous, irresponsible, scammy, and/or fueled by IP theft.
Indeed, there are several anthropological works speculating that the purpose of divination is to break analysis paralysis or unconscious biases.
And if you are already sure of the correct solution, then you can just keep doing the divination over and over again until the gods give the answers that you want!
On a planetary scale, gigawatts are nothing. The total amount of energy that Earth receives from the Sun is about 100,000,000,000 megajoules of energy every second, 99%+ of which gets dissipated as heat.
If this is about the climate, then it's important to remember that climate change and pollution ultimately are not a meaningful threat to Earth as a planet - both Earth and its life have been through far far worse[0][1][2][3]. They are only a threat to humans[4].
This is all about Hormuz, isn't it? Even though the attack itself was in Basra, Iraq, the intention seems to be to terrify any companies thinking of sailing through the Persian Gulf.
I wonder how many more caches of drones Iran has lying around. Days? Weeks? Years?
There's also the question of how to resupply any anti-drone systems in the area - maybe we'll see convoys carrying interceptors crossing the Arabian desert.
Yeah, they definitely have a very specific market in mind:

I never really understood warrant canaries. Wouldn't they be still vulnerable to rubber-hose cryptanalysis? An attacker could coerce you to continue updating your canary as if nothing had happened.
Assuming US, I think that the gov't can't actually compel speech from an entity e.g. force to keep signing the canary.
Warrant canaries are the way entities can circumvent the narrow case where the gov't actually can restrict your free speech, by creating a case where your lack of speak is telling. By this framework we can then come around again to the first point.
The point of a canary is that it's cryptographically signed, and it's possible to set up a duress passphrase that will delete the key when entered, so if everything works correctly an unauthorized party can't keep posting signed canaries.
In the US you can legally be compelled to keep certain warrants a secret. They can not legally compel you to make a statement, even if the lack of a statement reveals a warrant's existence.
Yes, but usually something like that leaves other signs. If men with guns take away a lot of people in your company in theory other people will notice.
> One singular nuclear warhead can be enough to eradicate the entire population in the US.
How big would this warhead be? "One singular nuclear warhead" wasn't enough to eradicate the entire populations of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, much less Japan.
Nonsense, giving money to the wealthy and powerful makes them poorer - that's why you should give them some more of your money.
