So you’re saying you program without a translucent mini map showing your location or whatever? Shame on you.

Sometimes I think the ideas of the creators of movies and TV series like this is to try to see what’s the most absurd and out of place thing they can push without anyone not in IT noticing. Moreover oftentimes the primary thing is entertainment, not factual accuracy.

Apparently, it is a thing on at least one show. NCIS once showed two people using the same keyboard at the same time.

to counterhack faster, obviously. and then someone came in and just pulled the plug out of the monitor, which obviously stopped the hacker.

There is an answer to the question that you are not asking, and it’s the scene from NCIS where TWO people are furiously typing on ONE keyboard so that they can “hack faster”

Yeah that was really cool. And they did it so well that non-IT people still enjoy watching it.

The primary thing is entertainment. They have to make something that is entertaining to watch. For example even explosions are exaggerated. In movies they contain much more fire than they usually contain.

I’ve been playing around with Grafana alot lately so my screens do look closer to the second. Except not such a disordered jumble so it doesn’t have any where near the same wow factor

Just don’t look directly at it for too long or it’ll cause a buffer overflow in your brain and you’ll start yelling out your private keys instead of saying words.
