Hackers do type.

For one, programmers in general use less of the graphic interface and more of the command line, which means they use mouse less and keyboard more when navigating their computer (for example, when copying files, opening folders etc.).

They also type a lot of code. However, they don’t do it like they do in movies. They don’t do it in real time as the attack is taking place. Instead, they write their code and then send their code somewhere to do its thing. They don’t write a bunch of code on the spot during the attack.
