Comment on It's interesting that we have multiple appliances in the kitchen who's sole job is to turn electricity into heat.

False. My water filter pitcher does not turn energy into heat.

(Ok, fine, it uses gravity to move the water through a filter, which technically converts some of the potential energy of the water into heat through friction, but that’s not something the pitcher does, that’s something the earth does that the pitcher uses to its advantage.)
