My weed code is usually really creative but riddled with bugs

Does it help with solving hard problems ?
I find it's great for diving into refactoring projects that I've been putting off. I like to do that stoned because it's usually not that hard, just tedious moving files around and organizing things. Same way my wife reorganizes the furniture when she gets stoned.

I also sometimes find solutions to hard problems in my head when stoned, though I usually just write down the solution rather than coding it, as large-scale implementations are better done sober.

When you come back sober, the solutions won't make any sense.
Personally, weed might help in the creative phase of problem solving, but if it requires working memory weed is a big negative(at least how it affects me)
I think including some CBD in there negates the memory issues.
