    Using modern technology, you can write a C Windows application that runs on Wine that runs on Linux that runs on QEMU running on WASM inside a web browser running on macOS that runs on a virtual machine controlled by a Linux hypervisor. Even the individual instructions sent to the CPU are decoded by a layer of software that rewrites and reorders them inside the CPU. The CPU that may very well contain a smaller Pentium CPU running Minix to maintain operation of the rest of the CPU.
