LYLE

Hello,my name is Lyle. Allow me to let you know a little about me. I should be considered a Kansas country boy. I was raised on a farm. Only lived in one city before retiring; Wichita. That was while attending Wichita State University. Although I was pursuing a pHD to become a university mathematics professor, I dropped out early in my master's.Because I was getting married and needed an income, or at least a better income than taking college classes paid. 🤣 I returned to university and got my teaching certificate for high school mathematics. I did teach two years in wichita, schools before making the break to to get out of the city and teach in very small rural districts. I enjoyed being in the country again because the natural beauty of nature was nearby. Notice the sunset photos above I took during those years. I thought the math would be so disappointing to teach because it wouldn't be high enough level of math to challenge me, but I found it was a God lead career change from the path I was on, because instead of working with math problems, I got to work with real, wonderful young adults I loved challenging them in the mathematics and they love to be challenged. That gave me such fulfillment and a career of meaning and richness, as I had a part in their lives and in the community. Although the highest math that I was teaching in high school was calculus, still there was a reward for the wonder of enjoying the lives of students. At least the math to them was high level and that made it fun and rewarding. I retired at 62 years old for a number of reasons, the largest of which was because AI ( artificial intelligence) came available on their phones. Their love of a challenge and the desire to struggle through solving problems was no more. Although I still had a job, I was no longer fulfilled, I was just filling a post, and I knew soon, my job would be eliminated. I didn't have the desire to stay and just fill a post for I never considered myself just teaching as a job. I enjoyed the challenge of helping students learn. I enjoyed the students. That was all gone. I think AI is one of the greatest things that has happened and what it can be used for and what it provides us the ability to do, but it's also one of the most damaging, because our minds are no longer being stretched and challenged and disciplined with the thought of reasoning and problem solving. The youth today doesn't have anything to put in its place to replace that challenge. There's social apps and many things that our online that are only entertaining and no way it's a real. Concentration or thought or problem solving. So I retired, and moved back to Wichita.

I'm wealthy, because I have a loving puppy. My interest, now, is quantum, quantum theory, quantum mechanics and all the new theories that are breaking into discovery on quantum nearly every day. Also interesting to me is AI, app development, anything techy, as well as collecting and dealing in domain names. I have learned, and my family has learned about me, to not get me started talking about quantum or mathematics or AI. They always come up with an excuse to get me to stop talking; for example; they say something like;”gotta go, I have laundry to do,” or “someone's at the door and I need to go let them in.” 🤣
