ELI5: What does hacking actually LOOK like? For example, what interface is the hacker using, what's their goal, and are they typing in a bunch of passwords like in the movies?

Nothing like the movies. Most of it is writing a program at your leisure, depending on what you’re doing. It’s just exploiting over sights or weaknesses in a code or system. Very little is done in real time, and even that is more more mundane, just exploring directories for data you want, etc.
