So I did, and it was pretty much in line with my expectations for a downer. Great for drowning out distracting and stressful thoughts, so I can see why it would help with creative tasks that require more 'feeling' than reasoning as it can really help get into the zone.

As for my particular situation, I was having trouble getting Tensorflow to work with Haskell on a Jupyter Notebook. Thanks to a more relaxed state of mind I managed to dive far deeper into the problem than I normally would have as it didn't stress me out as much. However, I did not actually manage to fix it, and I think it may just be practically impossible due to conflicting version requirements. In a sober state I would have given up sooner, and thus wasted less time.

I forgot some details:

  • using is legal where I live
  • I don't smoke so I made brownies, heating butter with weed in a bain marie for 2 hours to ensure an even distribution.
  • Used about 1/4 g, type similar to white widow.
  • I've used weed twice before in my life and tend to have strong reactions to mind-altering substances (alcohol, caffeine, antidepressants, ...)
