title: Is this file unable to be executed in macOS?
body: <p><strong>Background</strong></p>
  
  <p>I have a Unix Executable File called mason_simulator. I checked its properties in macOS terminal via </p>
  
  <pre class="lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>file mason_simulator
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the results is the following:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>mason_simulator: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=f020e84c15ef18a541d6bce9376f58fe3e547448, not stripped
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>Question</strong> 
  Does this imply that this file cannot be executed in macOS? Because when I double click it, the error message: 'cannot execute binary file' appears. </p>
