this is a thing people do. convince themselves they can consume technical content subconsciously. its now how the brain works though. it will just give you the idea you are following something.
not all technical content is the same, or has the same level of importance. this video does not introduce anything that i need to be able to replicate in my work, so i don't need to catch every detail of it, just grasp the basic concepts and reasons for doing something.
Lots of people will have a show on or something while they're cooking or cleaning or doing other things. Is it worse for it to be interesting technical content with fun other stuff thrown in than if was an episode of Friends or Fraiser or Iron Chef or 9-1-1: Lone Star or The Price is Right?
I guess I'm only allowed to have The Masked Singer on while I make dinner.

if your foreground work doesn't occupy your brain, why not?
Because I prefer not to think about the hair I'm removing from my shower drain?
