YouTube is FULL of "study with me", "program with me" videos with background music for a long time already.

I love occassionaly putting on George Hotz's streams while programming. Here's an 11 hour stream of him implementing SLAM from a closet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Hlb8YX2-W8&t=10316s&ab_chan...

The guy's a certified legend. Sadly he 'quit' streaming but the hundreds of hours in the archive should suffice.

I did it for a while. But I am super bad at narrating what I do in real time. I couldn't stream myself doing my job so I thought I should do puzzles and stuff, which is also something I am horrible at. So, I thought let's try learning and exploring new programming stuff (vim, jupyter notebook, de/da, stats, github projects) and stream that but guess what I am bad demoing stuff too.

But I do enjoy filming myself on a webcam and seeing the emotional ride I go through on a routinely basis in my attempts to solve problems.

There’s generally little or no narrating in these study videos. The specific one talked about in this article sometimes has 5-10 mins of discussion every 50 minutes.

You know what, I am gonna do it again. I am going to do it for myself.

If you have not found it, you might be a part of an untapped market. If that’s the case: start the stream yourself (you’d be surprised how helpful it can be to be the streamer)

I'm occasionally doing literally this on Twitch.tv, while working on some side projects that otherwise I wouldn't time for to work on them. So far it's working pretty well, even if I don't have half a million of audience.

I would love to but I can’t exactly live stream my companies codebase!

it's more a big brother voyeurism thing than a collaborative screencast
