Link is not dead but errors have been found

[seriousran]

awesome-lint finds errors following 2 cases which is not dead

i) Link to https://arxiv.org/abs/* is dead
ii) Link to https://arxiv.org/pdf/* is dead

For example, Link to https://arxiv.org/pdf/1611.01603.pdf is dead

Hi, it definitely looks related to #42.
Same issue over here, occurring against a website pretty slow to respond...

Getting the same for https://vimeo.com/163522126:

Please report these false-positives to https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/check-links It's the package used to check the links.

[HorlogeSkynet]

So I guess it would require to make https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/check-links/blob/3b08216d01a1107f0c692f611b11274f996006ca/lib/check-link.js#L38 customizable, and increase it in this module ?

I'll have some time to look into this soon. For now, I've opened an issue to track this.

@HorlogeSkynet can you provide some additional false negatives in the above issue that you're seeing problems with?

Similar false positive error found by @CompSciLauren in sindresorhus/awesome#1595 (comment)

Oddly, when I ran awesome-lint personally, I did not see this error

(base) wm962-fdf:awesome-cytodata gway$ awesome-lint
⠙ Linting(node:6962) [DEP0066] DeprecationWarning: OutgoingMessage.prototype._headers is deprecated

  ✖  1:1  The repository should have "awesome-list" as a GitHub topic  remark-lint:awesome/github

  2 errors

(These are also false postives, probably b/c I am running awesome-lint on my fork)

[transitive-bullshit]

There is definitely a broader issue here with the remark-lint:no-dead-urls rule. See my proposal in #89 to work around it.
