Link checker does not work due to certificate issues

[huayunh]

Whether I go home or go work, when I try to yarn check:links locally, all I got was errors. There are no severe consequences but we have to rely on CI to check everything.

Steps to reproduce - Run yarn check:links

Current scenario - Getting certificate error:

  8 links checked.

  ERROR: 7 dead links found!

Expected - Certificate error should not be there

I ran link checker on my local and didn't see any certificate errors related to this bug. However locally I did receive dead link for this but the site does have about 30 403's for resources didn't load but the site opens..

That one should have been "fixed" now with the new branch merge — I ended up having to disable the link checker for that link.
