- pjmlp 8y agoCare to refer to any good CS/EE book that asserts your opinion?
- pygy_ 8y agoYou may want to re-read the definition of Turing equivalence. You should find it in any good CS/EE book. You could bake a JS interpreter in silico. There are actual hardawre implementations of the JVM. You can also run machine language in emulators. CPUs are just hardware interpreters for their respective machine language.
