@stefano what they meant is "we will rent you our computer space, and make you unlearn using yours."

There seems to be a phishing attack that impersonates ycombinator, and is sent via Github tickets. It was sitting in my inbox this morning.

At a first glance, it looks like YC is reaching out to open source contributors, at least from their messaging.

But soon enough the oddities pile up: The amount suggested is not what YC usually invests. Their instructions indicate that a "wallet" must be verified via a reimbursable transfer.

Finally none of the links is legit. The one visible in the picture below is sent by "ycoombinator". Another apply link (not visible in screenshot) points to: "https://y-comblnator [dot] com/apply".
