Movie-logic Memes

Hollywood: "I'm in! We've breached the mainframe!" Reality: Eight print statements and a dream. The stark contrast between hacking scenes in movies (green text, progress bars, dramatic music) versus the actual code behind them (literally just a loop of print statements) is programming's greatest inside joke. No fancy algorithms, no binary scrolling across the screen—just a script that would make a CS101 student roll their eyes. The sad part? Some viewers think this is actually how cybersecurity works. Next time you see a hacker "bypassing the firewall" in 10 seconds, remember it's probably just a for-loop in disguise.
