This piece also touches on why the current discourse on AI isn't getting us closer to general AI. Our AI is getting better at solving human defined problems but not getting any better at figuring out which questions are worth asking (aka intuition, knowing when the combination of two seemingly disparate ideas is useful)

I think you are right that is is a small market. However I think the "recurring" usage of the site involves business opportunities and connections beyond just finding cofounders. Sure, LinkedIn sort of does this, but the problem is akin to your description of Angellist as only connecting people who are already somehow connected. There must be some way to create connections out of the blue, and more importantly target your connections better (you don't know which people on LinkedIn are interested in founding a startup at the present time).

You mentioned a few things about the design that I agree with but "clunky ui" doesn't make sense to me as I think as the site UI and functionality itself is very simple.

Assuming the UI is minimally usable, the main thing I'm concerned about is if the functionality of the site is what cofounders want. For example, are the questions on the "New Project" form what people care about when looking at projects. Are people too scared others will steal their ideas to create their own projects. Does the current user profile information not give enough information that users "trust" other users enough to reach out and discuss projects.

How do you find out / when is the right time of day to post to HN?

The less sketchy version of this is buying equity from the private market for startups that are already seeing big upward trends (e.g. Uber)

How exactly does it sense something like eating unhealthy food? Or, not eating enough calories in a day?

The reasons given for needing an app to do this are spurious. Classic case of over-complicating a simple thing.

A meal prep service for bodybuilders. The hardest part of bodybuilding is eating right. Something that is affordable, nutritious, and calorie dense would be extremely valuable. There is no meal delivery service I know of that satisfies the last criterion. $10 should get you at least 1000 healthy calories
