Git Commit Message AI
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# AI-powered Git Commit Function
# Copy paste this gist into your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc to gain the `gcm` command. It:
# 1) gets the current staged changed diff
# 2) sends them to an LLM to write the git commit message
# 3) allows you to easily accept, edit, regenerate, cancel
# But - just read and edit the code however you like
# the `llm` CLI util is awesome, can get it here: https://llm.datasette.io/en/stable/

While he made significant contributions to mathematics, his most enduring legacy is his insights into how people learn and solve problems. His 1945 book "How to Solve It" has influenced educators across numerous fields, extending far beyond mathematics.

Polya's Teaching Philosophy

Polya's approach centered on three key principles. First, he championed active learning, believing students learn best by discovering solutions themselves rather than being told answers. Second, he emphasized heuristic thinking - the art of guided discovery and learning from experience, viewing problem-solving as a skill that can be developed through practice. Third, he developed sophisticated questionin
