If you think alcohol should be legal then why not opioids? I just don't see how people can square these view points. We admit that alcohol can cause all sorts of health issues, including addiction and abuse, but it is legal anyway. And as a result it is well regulated (we know what we're getting) and it is easy to obtain (we don't have to deal with shady people in potentially dangerous situations). If someone is an alcoholic, then their family may ask them to seek help, but most of us will just ignore it because it is that person's problem and is not affecting us. There isn't any restrictions on alcohol content in most places - you can buy 180 proof grain alcohol just as easily as weak beer.
So why not treat other drugs the exact same way? There is no way to be logically consistent about this UNLESS you think that alcohol should also be illegal.
I don't think very many users want Fentanyl at all; short high, little to no euphoria. What users really want is diamorphine or similar, which is way less dangerous, but fentanyl is commonly used because it's cheaper to produce. Pure, consistent drugs would allow users to dose correctly and avoid overdoses.
Just trying to understand your thought process here - did you think that the parent thought that the filter would somehow remove lime out of thin air? I'm honestly amazed how you didn't immediately come to the conclusion that it's just for filtering lime out before pouring.
I have been in homes with hard water, but its not my day-to-day life.
I usually use a $15 kettle, and no lime precipitates when I typically use a boiler. I can see that lime eventually builds up in the kettle, but as described earlier: a bit of vinegar removes those deposits without much issue.

Honestly, I can't say that I've ever seen water so hard that it'd precipitate visible amounts of lime in a kettle. I usually see that sort of stuff on humidifiers or distillers. Not really a kettle.
I mean, everything eventually has lime buildup ("soft water" isn't free of lime/calcium, it just has 1/2 the calcium of hard water). Knowing how to clean that stuff off is important.
I had no idea how bad hard water could get until I moved to London.
I get limescale on everything. I descale my kettle every week or two (almost daily if not using a Brita filter), shower head monthly. I pour citric acid down the toilet weekly. My taps actually form little calcium stalactites over a few months. Thermostatic shower cartridges are an annual replacement item because the limescale gets them too.
I keep demineralised water around for sensitive equipment like humidifiers.
The fact that other platforms and applications are insecure isn't relevant; we're comparing static sites to WordPress.
However, to answer the point, static sites are significantly more secure than every single dynamic platform that supports a plugin architecture because plugins can be, and often are, written without security in mind.
Unless you really need a dynamic website you should be deploying static assets to the enduser. Practically every business website would be better off being delivered as a static site, even if the admin still use WordPress to edit the content.
Customized presentation is possible by starting with a blank template. Most do not do that, so if they want to customize, they spend time modifying and working around the default views. This has an effect of constraining the look. The difficulty emulating controller-like behavior means that adding multiple pieces of content to a view takes extra work.
As for the content architecture, Wordpress cpt are limited in their ability to relate to others and to define flexible custom fields (even with ACF.) It’s possible to hack together something like what a more flexible CMS or application framework can do, but it’s fragile and takes a lot of boilerplate, which, similar to template customization, steers the developer towards a similar architecture to other sites.
For these reasons, increased development and maintenance cost make it unlikely that an attempt to develop something truly customized on Wordpress will be successful. That said, many only know Wordpress development so may still get further with it than with a closer fit to their project.
>I'd be very curious how a WP plugin is managing this.
If you don't know how the cache plugins do this, it's pretty obvious you are not very knowledgable about WordPress site operations. Please stop spouting falsehoods here.
I really feel bad for this person. It seems like they are used to another workplace culture than the secretive and strict culture of Apple, and they might have committed some social faux pas which tainted their reputation, leading to sabotage from their teammates. Of course that doesn't excuse their behavior.
Additionally, I really hope that they now have learnt to separate themselves emotionally from their workplace. I know that it might've been a stressful (e.g. visa issues), but one should never let themselves get to a point where they cry about a workplace issue in their Christmas/NYE break. It's just a job, after all.
