Alright, I dug into this further and it looks like Hurley is the issue and the project is dead.

It works on me without any SSL problem. I think Hurley can't load your trusted certificate in your default path. Last time, I also got this kind of error for another project. I just installed the certificate into the default path and no more SSL error.

You can follow this post. Or, you can also install the certificate by running:

sudo wget -O `ruby -r openssl -e "puts OpenSSL::X509::DEFAULT_CERT_FILE"` http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem

Yup, you are right. Hurley is shutting down but the gem still alive and not yanked (lostisland/hurley#43). This project needs to change Hurley.
