Oh, yes, for the _rich_ dev who has two monitors, that is all well and good.
But, for the rest of us...There is (Picture-in-Picture)PIP. 
Seriously, at home I only have one monitor and this PIP really helps.

I'm not rich, and I have three now: I added one for email / DB monitoring when Herself stopped using her computer ...
I really miss 'em when - like now - I'm on the surface. Doing things so much slower with just one!

Noooooo! You do not need to be rich to have 2 monitors! You just need to have your priorities straight! Eat and drink a little less - buy a second monitor!

Quite right!
Why waste money on necessities, when there are luxuries you still don't have?

Yes, I thought it was so great that I immediately went to settings, and turned it off.
A couple of other browsers let you pop videos out to separate windows, so that you can move them out of the way of the text you're trying to read. That's a slightly better solution, but I hardly ever used that, either.

You can "script" the Windows Voice Synthesizer. English has at least 5 "voices", so now you can have a 5-way. Tried multiple Synths, but only one was effective, so you can't "talk over" someone. Still, with changing pitch, etc., you can have interesting meetings (behind closed doors) and not even be there.
Or add it as a script / hook to your co-workers PC so it talks back as they type.

That works! You can include wav files with the text speak.

Then in the silence, he started to slowly clap his hands, once every few seconds.
Holding the audience in total silence, he said in to the microphone "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."
From the front of the crowd, a broad Scottish accent pierced the quiet
"Well stop doin' it then, ya evil bastard!"

All nature is ultimately mathematics so this doesn't surprise me. Sometimes our math just isn't evolved enough to express it.
Beautiful equations, we are. All of us. Everything.
Adding, it pleases me to know that every time I stir my coffee, a mathematician somewhere is dumbfounded.
