I've tried programming whilst high, but I find myself unable to do anything complicated, like design algorithms. So it's not very helpful. Anyone else had different experiences?

Yeah, I've tried it too. Just made me sluggish, made my mind wander a lot looking at a problem from different angles, but I wasn't able to grasp or focus on anything for very long before moving on to the next idea.
I work best with a freshly brewed pot of coffee nearby, a cool draft (I can't work in the summer heat--need that A/C), zero outside disruptions, and music playing from a high-quality Internet radio stream, which must either be industrial, classical, or weeaboo shit. I can't code to anything else.
