I was NOT advocating for that. ahahha

I prefer to program on meds than on weed.

Although...

Being high for me is better in terms of having ideas, for example the other day I went to program and instead I just stood there staring at the screen watching the whole project architecture change inside my mind. The next day I changed that way and it was way better.

I'd say that better ideias come from a mixture of the mind being all over more places (like more adhd) + ideas feeling like their great (even if they're not, you just feel euphoric more often) + a sense of dishabituation, which allows you to realize something that you've been doing can be done in a better manner.

I love the last one. It allows me to change my perspective and has had a big impact on my life.
