@AsherO

I would like a list of potential pitfalls. This is not the Shulchan Aruch here, but to raise awareness, so people will know to look into it, or ask their rabbi.

This is if he starts with everyone else. If he’s late the pashtus is he is no different

The svara was that since he wouldn’t have made kedusha anyways, so he can start. I agree that it’s not the pashtus. Will attach link when I find it. I think was in the שו״ת שלמת חיים.

Also, the Biur Halacha is explicit otherwise

Seems to be requiring one to hear קדושה somewhere else though. Also is only talking about someone who came on time to davening.

One may brew coffee in shabbos using a pour-over cone.

There is no problem of borer. This is like the gemara in shabbos that is brought in SH"A which allows one to pour water over wine sediment that is in a sieve and drink the wine flavored water that comes out. This is not borer because you aren't separating an existing mixture.

There is a shaila of bishul. Anyone who makes tea on shabbos (sfardim or kli shlishi like R Moshe) can definitely make coffee. I heard from Rabbi Feurst, although he doesn't allow tea he allows coffee in a kli shlishi because it's bishul achar tzli
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Can i end this thread?

It's Assur to state a Halacha as a simple fact when it's much more complicated then it seems.
Dude, I do not think anyone said that they are a Possek here.
No one here states the absolute undisputed truth here.

The idea is to bring up points that many might not have been aware that there is a potential issue to begin with.

So state your points as potential issues instead of definitive statements. "There are those who pasken...", etc.

You want me to bring up forms with disclaimers.
I'd expect common sense.

Thanks. Either I saw it somewhere else or I am mistaken.

Wrong thread for mekoros but I’ll reply here:

Where's the source for the pinky?

Brought in the ילקוט מעם לועז פרשת כי תבא כז:כו (mentions pinky)
And in this sefer from ר׳ חיים פאלג׳י (mentions finger)
https://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=49496&st=&pgnum=29

or looking super closely at the klaff?

From the Arizal. Brought in Mishna Brura and other seforim.

That’s probably the minhag to find the letter of the initial of your name, I don’t know the source

Brought in Ben Ish Chai and others.

Well, it would insinuate that one has Better Hora'ah and is believed to say that Halacha x is such and so.

Again, please not going off topic.
