Ship of Theseus. I used to be really interested in working with prosthetics. Life took me elsewhere, but I still think about the implications of change like that.

I don't know if hearing that old dead white guys talk about stuff like this helps, but I've always thought that it's a nice philosophical concept that makes the idea easier to explain to people.

Sure thing. I came across it on reddit some time ago, and realized that it was a very precise way of looking at a very abstract concept. You should interpret it however you feel best, but I think it's especially helpful in showing how something can still be very much whole when something is lost, which is why your comment reminded me of it.
