The Bitchy Sweetness of Peperoncino Honey:
Just add a cup of a neutral honey to a pot, along with a generous pinch of peperoncino. When just at the point of boiling, pour the honey into a container and let it cool for a few hours. The oils of the chili will have infused into the honey, creating a bottle of bitchy sweetness all your own.

i think the bitchy sweetness is a bit much, but peppery good honey…. i can see the merits of that.

Steve Talbott:
Why should I pay a school $160,000 for a vocational education when I can almost certainly find a business or agency or laboratory or nonprofit organization willing to hire me for nothing, assign me some useful chores, and give me an opportunity to start learning my desired vocation?

The purpose of education, at least in the liberal arts and in the sciences, is not vocation, vocation comes later, you are not prepared for some vocations without an education in the liberal arts and sciences. Oh you can do the job, but you won’t be able to go as far in the job as quickly, and you will have much fewer faculties and tools to adapt to changes in the jobs, to understand what the real job is, beyond the performance of work. we need to be careful here, because there are to few vocations left.
