Notes
gollark: well, that seems like a weird view if you apply it to physical objects, which constantly change slightly when they interact with their environment.
gollark: Which poses an interesting philosophical question: if you replace all the parts of a bot one by one, is it the same bot afterward?
gollark: Yes, but newer and shinier and also different in basically every way apparently.
gollark: ????
gollark: > I hope pythonYes, Python.
