This PR addresses the 119 redirected URLs found by the automated link checker to improve documentation performance and reliability by updating URLs to their final destinations.

Changes Made

Updated URLs across 10 lecture files to eliminate unnecessary redirects:

  • FRED URLs: Updated research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/fred.stlouisfed.org/
  • JAX repository: Updated github.com/google/jaxgit.colasdn.top/jax-ml/jax
  • NumPy documentation: Updated docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/numpy.org/doc/stable/
  • JAX documentation: Updated jax.readthedocs.iodocs.jax.dev
  • QuantEcon.py: Updated http://quantecon.org/quantecon-pyhttps://quantecon.org/quantecon-py/
  • GitHub resources: Updated various GitHub URLs to current paths (help.github.com → docs.github.com, desktop.github.com → github.com/apps/desktop, etc.)
  • Library documentation: Updated requests docs (master → latest), conda docs, git-scm.com (http → https)
  • Service URLs: Updated Anaconda blog, nbviewer (jupyter.org → nbviewer.org), Kaggle (kernels → code)
  • Python resources: Updated PSF URL, GeeksforGeeks paths, Tuts+ tutorial URLs

Validation

  • ✅ All changes tested with successful Jupyter Book build
  • ✅ Generated HTML contains updated URLs
  • ✅ Local server validation confirms site functionality
  • ✅ No content changes - only URL updates to reduce redirects

The build process completed successfully with only expected warnings about jax.quantecon.org being unreachable (normal in CI environment).

Fixes #399.
