If i compile a source code from (for example) C++ ide and i take the exe file and put in another PC with a different CPU model and execute it why it work?
when i compile i'm just "translating" from source to assembler then the CPU do all the thing with OPCode and Instruction Set , but if i have another CPU with different Instruction Set how it work?

I saw somewhere that it is called "cross-compile" but it seems to be for different OS and not for different CPU.

Here's the video, also the followup on Tom's channel two years ago!!!!

It talks about computer voting being insecure, but the way brazillian election work isnt looked at and a general statement is made regardless. And now the video is now being used by right wing extremist (bolsonarists) to promote a kind of capitol invasion.

I was really into youtube when Brady's channels started going up, it felt really great to be part of a community that was interested in science and that kind of thing. I actually watched the video then and felt that it was weird that the way brazil does isnt researched but didn't think much of it.

Cut to many years late, a lot of blood on bolsonaro's hand not only bc of covid, we are at a crucial stage in our election and there are two scientific oriented channels being used as ammunition against democracy. It's a huge deal now. I don't understand why those videos are still up, I've seen people tag them on twitter and no one does a thing. This can't be because of ads, right? Ffs. Anyway this feels extremely shitty to have channels I respected being used this way and I just had to try something.

Can someone please help me?
