What is the data source?

The start of the linked post says:

> The data in this demo is taken from the ipv4.global auction.

So I assume either by scraping https://www.ipv4.global/ or from readily prepared downloads of data from them. Haven’t looked around the site to see if there is any prepared data downloads available.

For something called "with Gnuplot", I was expecting it to be just as much a gnuplot tutorial, or at least a "show off" of how to code plots using gnuplot.

But other than that, it was a really nice analysis.

I think it is fine to hide the source code for it, it is a tutorial of sorts.

It is possible view source Org file where is code for gnuplot. (Tip: switch to code view as gitlab view does not understand source blocks)

Honestly I love seeing org-mode and babel, whenever possible.

Anyone has an idea why price dropped since 2022?

jiggawatts•8mo ago

My best guess is that the public clouds stopped expanding after the end of ZIRP because startups vanished overnight and demand dried up.

GPU instances don't need public IP addresses.

suncore•8mo ago

Maybe the buyers started migrating to IPv6 when they saw how expensive IPv4 addresses are and there is a delay before they actually migrate. IPv4 addresses are way more expensive than I thought, upwards of $60 per address, jeez...

ta1243•8mo ago

If you think they're worth $60 an address then you can make a fortune buying them at half the price at https://auctions.ipv4.global/prior-sales

At 5% roi though, even $60 an address would be $3 a year. Address owners typically charge far more -- Amazon for example charges $43 an address per year.

AndrewDucker•8mo ago

IPv6 is now up to 49% [1] - it's possible that there's just less demand for IPv4 addresses.

Pure speculation but could be at the end of zirp companies sold off IP assets / bankruptcy sales is depressing price.

My favourite part of this is the part where gnuplot is barely mentioned and no code is shown for generating those graphs.

Bravo, 11/10.
