What this fixes

Removed links from resource lists that are genuinely dead (not just blocking bots):

Link Status Action
kaggle.com/learn 404 Removed (3 occurrences)
portswigger.net/web-security 404 Removed
db-book.com Unreachable (timeout) Removed

What I left alone

Several links return 403 but are likely just blocking automated requests (leetcode, nostarch, realpython, stackoverflow, etc.). These sites are still live when visited in a browser — they're just aggressive about bot detection.

Safety

  • No content meaning was changed
  • No sections were removed
  • Only removed individual dead entries from resource lists
  • Renumbered one ordered list to stay sequential

Remove links that return 404 or are unreachable:
- Kaggle Learn (kaggle.com/learn) — 404
- PortSwigger Web Security Academy (portswigger.net/web-security) — 404
- Database System Concepts (db-book.com) — unreachable

These resources appear to have been taken down or restructured.
No content meaning was changed; only removed entries from resource lists.
