Gemini 4 Argon prompt costs $0.34 vs $8.98 for fast 3D shader loops
The author argues a $0.34 Gemini 4 Argon prompt can be re-run 25 times and still beat an $8.98 alternative, making cheap fast feedback key for vibe coding and browser 3D shaders.

Look, for $0.34 you can prompt Gemini 4 Argon to make the fur longer 25 more times, and *still* come out ahead (maybe even buy an actual watermelon). 😉🍉 When you're vibe coding or building complex 3D shaders in the browser, you want fast feedback loops that don't drain your budget on a single prompt. $0.34 vs $8.98 is huge! 🚀
