Allahu Akbar!

>>84387223
Programmer here.
People love progress bars, it tells them that the program is working(even though it maybe isn't)
Most of the time real life progress bars are bullshit too

If they're bullshit why do programs load like 5 or so minutes after they're filled up?

Check mate code monkeys

>>84387555
I know this is a bait, but I will answer because because of the trips

Because they are bullshit

The same reason many computers with extremely confidential data have passwords written in a post-it next to it, or has no password scrutiny so the perpetrator may just guess the correct password by knowing the name of admin's mother or pet

>>84387223
same reason they put timers in bombs.

I NEED MORE TIME DAMMIT
I NEED MORE TIME

Because it needs to appeal to the masses, of which most people aren't going to understand or enjoy some guy typing in a bunch of code for a few hours and saying "OK done."

The progress bar adds an element of tension, as the guy doing the hacking is usually doing it in secret or in a limited timespan.

I know you're a comp sci major that thinks he is really clever in pointing out this isn't how hacking actually works, but you just look autistic.

Liberals in general have no fucking idea how hacking, or computers in general work.

Case in point: They legitimately believe Russia """"hacked"""" the election.

Anon if you look closely you can tell everyone else is just crouching to give him the appearance of height.

there could easily be a progress bar for a planned infiltration involving stocks and other liquid assets. hackers having a progress bar for an improvised infiltration without strong knowledge of the system is absurd

the resolution of this scene made no sense regardless

>major infiltration with specific targeting of Wayne's assets
>"oh well its the stock market we can't just undo a billion dollar crime while the entire floor was being held hostage that would be unethical"
yeah ok

>>84388282
I think that's because he's standing and all the others are sitting or lying on the floor.

>>84388289
This

>>84387223
Because writers have a standing competition who can get away with more retarded hacking scene

It's like Willhelm scream
