The place to learn any topic, quickly

Hi HN, we’re building deriveit.org, the website where you can learn any topic, quickly. On our website, you pay to ask any physics, computer science, or math question, and our community competes to give you the best explanation (for a cash reward). Right now, resources with high quality content are a time drain (papers, textbooks, and courses). We think that material is typically written in an unnecessarily hard-to-read way, but that there are tons of people who are passionate about explaining it well to others. We want to give the world access to those people, and remove barriers for them to answer questions and write content. I'm writing to encourage you to try us out, if you’re interested - ask a question on a topic you always wanted to learn (we added a free mode so you don't have to pay or sign in), and we’ll give you a condensed, easy-to-read explanation. Or write about the intuitions that you have, which you know you won’t find anywhere else online. We’re obviously in the early stages, and are very open to feedback.
