Odd, I don't see anything on it that might be a problem - no adverts, links seem OK (excessive, but OK)

Indeed- I didn't get the warning this time. I must have clicked on something ...

I just got the following.

The second time I clicked the link it took me to the site with no warning.

At a guess, one of the banner providers was either hacked or conned into running a tainted campaign and some but not all of their content is malware. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

In reality, graphene manufacturing is by far the hardest part about using the super material. It has great theoretical potential for energy storage, and now new research could help make that potential a reality. This is what happens when you let Scotsmen do science

Modular Java, due in Java 9, makes for a sleeker footprint, while Safety-Critical Java targets secure real-time systems. "I don't want to break it up. Why do we have to break it up?"

..because they want to be in the things of the internet, so they can claim that there's "even lots more java-powered devices" while installing a dubious toolbar for a third-party.
Soon your underwear will be running ads with a small sidenote that says "powered by Java".

 These guys are out of touch:
Quote: With Safety-Critical Java, the platform would be better fitted to work in secure real-time systems with stringent requirements, such as in aerospace, military, or automotive applications. Work in this vein shows the new areas where Java is going, as well as the longevity of Java, Evans said. The Safety-Critical Java effort is driven by a consortium led by the Open Group.
The stringent requirements differ wildly between those fields, and the most fundamental requirement is deterministic behavior with respect to time. This is on the order of micro-seconds. Forget exceptions, they are out the window.
C++ has had a hard enough time getting recognized as being as capable and reliable as C for these types of uses. One of the primary restrictions is the use of the run-time libraries. Again, this relates to the JSF++ standards created by Lockheed Martin. Just following these standards will not make your program automatically quality for Safety-Critical usage.
Anyone interested in what it takes to have a Aeronautical Safety-Critical application approved by the FAA, look up the specification for DO-178B.
Based on the Kona link at the end of the article, this shines some light on the previous statement:
Quote: Oracle and, lately, the Eclipse Foundation have been promoting Java's usage in the Internet of things, which could potentially enable billions of devices ranging from refrigerators to TVs to cars. But Java faces myriad competition, with platforms like Google's Java-based Android, Microsoft's Windows Embedded, and Apple iOS in the mix.
Microsoft talks about Windows Embedded as a real-time OS. However, it has only been able to break into the auto-industry to collect and report data. The auto industry is guided by the MISRA standards.
All of these OSes have quite a way to go before I would want a JAVA app to be inline when I want to slam on the brakes in my car and it is stalled because of some internal runtime activity.

Yeah, I know nothing about this version they are touting, so I was giving the benefit of the doubt that the GC would be removed or handled in some creative way.

That would be a huge semantic change. There's nothing in the language to do deterministic memory collection.

The creator of the Linux kernel and Git has said that security issues should be publicly disclosed, not swept under the rug where vendors can leave them unsolved for years. Isn't that the point of open source?

You nailed it!
Group-think! Ugh!
Obviously it's a good idea to gather good ideas, but nothing good is ever created by committee. Nothing.
Yes, I said nothing. 
Except maybe a spell checker.
2nd edit. wait I correctly spelled committee. So I stand by my original quote. Nothing good is ever created by committee. Not even spell checkers.
