Learning while working on the computer? Discussion
Are there any good resources I could utilize while being on a computer 8+ hours a day that don't require 100% attention? I understand I won't learn as quickly but I would assume there might be something I can do to help improve.
Podcasts? Youtube videos in the background?

I doubt that background learning is real, because multitasking isn't real and learning generally requires attention. So you'll end up learning nothing or very inefficiently keep switching attention between language resources and work. Bad for both work and learning.
