That's a funny easter egg.
Sadly I distinctly remember the scene of him "typing" that in as one of the weakest in this otherwise great movie.
The awful "hollywood rapid-fire typing"[1] stood out like a sore thumb.

Rapid-fire editing with text objects, dot, macros, column mode, :norm, and so on ought to work pretty well on screen.
I wish they'd just do away with the rapid-fire crap altogether. It breaks the immersion. A mildly witty easter egg does not compensate for making every nerd in the audience of your nerd-movie cringe...
Just show some realistic typing, with mistakes and perhaps a quick copy/paste.
Though I appreciate the fact that it was genuine code, the fact that after a couple of minutes from that scene we discover that Caleb was actually just disabling security locks (basically reversing security measures to unlock doors when power's out instead of locking) right before he went on to talk wit Ava, which seemed a bit weird to me that he needed to write code for, especially some seemingly generic Python code.
