I think the parent comment is just insinuating that it's weird that they said assembly gets executed directly by the machine. Instead of saying that the assembly gets assembled into binary machine code that gets executed directly by the machine. And afaik that's what ultimately happens, but maybe I don't know how a computer works either. If that's the case please correct me haha.

- johnisgood 4y agoI think that is fine, but maybe I have no clue either. :D
