Yes. Best way to avoid is to pre-boil your water in large batches.

Just boil a huge pot, put it in a ziploc, and store in the fridge to use later

I prefer to use Instant H20. You just add water!

Yes, you can overcook your pasta. And yes you can "overboil" your water too, which would mean that all the water has been evaporated.

Never boil it for longer than 6-7 min. And it shouldn’t be a “rolling boil” either.

Yes, you have my permission

In a pressure cooker, yes

Sure, when the water level in the pan gets too low to cook the pasta properly. It happens when you forget about it.

You should boil the water, then reduce it before you add the pasta. Pasta only takes a few minutes to cook, and it shouldn't ever be boiled.

Thank you A2, VP 1 is out of it

I once called someone in the 'C' suite out for being completely disorganized. I followed it up by offering project management advice. The conversation got pretty heated. I still have my job and we seem to have moved past it but I wonder if that interaction will have a negative consequence down the road. I don't regret it and would do it again, just maybe a little more tactfully but I was looking out for my operation and one of the managers that reports to me.
