Links like this, result in flaky errors like below which are thrown only sometimes,

"https://blog.openshift.com/federated-prometheus-with-thanos-receive/" not accessible; status code 0: Get "https://www.openshift.com/blog/federated-prometheus-with-thanos-receive/": context deadline exceeded (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

It would be great to tackle this one. Often it causes intermittent test build failures.
