yeah, don't know, it was just an example. People stream YouTube while doing other things (playing, working, coding) all the time. I didn't want to put too much focus on the "Let's Play" part, it was the first thing that came to my mind :)
We have a handful of coders in our company and it's rare to enter their offices and not see something playing on the second screen.

I didn't want to put too much focus on the "Let's Play" part, it was the first thing that came to my mind :) That'd be very distracting to me, programming is (usually) a deep focus thing for me, having moving pictures right next to where I work would lead me to getting nothing done :P Interesting to hear though, probably should visit an office to see how it's changed since I last was in one.
- dark-star 2y agoyou might not be aware of things like LoFiGirl[1], which is especially designed for such a use-case and not distracting at all. In any case you could always just minimize the tab and listen, that wouldprobably also cound as "watching" in YouTube's statistics [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfKfPfyJRdk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfKfPfyJRdk
- diggan 2y agoYeah, I am, proud listener since 2018 or something (used to be called ChilledCow IIRC), but I never have that in the foreground. I'd still find that distracting as it has movements (even if they're tiny), which my eyes seems to be unnaturally attracted to.
