CVN-100 is the most advanced carrier in the world right now,weighing at 200, 000 tonnes and able to carry 150+ J-20s. Nothing in the American or Russian arsenal even comes close to the CVN-100. Truly remarkable bluff by a fanboy.

What makes you think that DF-41 (if it exist) is better than RS-24? You say it is "truly remarkable achievement" without actually knowing anything about it.
In a full range test, we'll at least find out the missile's true range and intended trajectory. You can use 11k missile use the spare fuel to do all sorts of maneuvers at 8k range (or use heavier payloads like MIRV), but test it at 11k proves you can do all that while hitting at 11k, which has many more interesting targets.

I read a minute ago on the "mil.ifeng.com" that, according to International Herald Tribune, China has for the first time since 1964 omitted (in its latest defence white paper) the reiteration of its not to use nukes first policy. I didn't bother to check the white paper though.
So if true, what doest it mean? Does it mean that China feels strong enough not to play the "no first use" policy any more? Or does China just wish to play buddies with the USA and Russia so that the two won't be too lonely being the big bullies for so long?

Until the Chinese government officially abolishes the no-first-use policy, it is still in place regardless of reiterations or lack of.

I read an article that said such reports are a misinterpretation which does not take into account the China defense white paper having a new format. Supposedly the new format of the defense white paper covers the no-first-use policy under a different topic than in previous papers.
Precisely why they are still spending so much money to continue harden their 2nd artillery asset and continue deepen the tunnel to withstand a first wave nuclear attack from enemies.
Another clear advantage of China continue hold on to "no first use of nuclear weapon" principal is to allow conventional strike of 2nd artillery to legally engage any conventional targets with more longer range and powerful missile like DF-21D
