run them in a VM that doesn't have git installed. Sandboxing these things is a good idea anyways.

The biggest problem with Electric is the battery weight, so it makes sense.

Ships deliberately use cheaper, less energy dense petroleum products (heavy fuel oil), for pretty much the inverse reasons why airplanes use kerosene.

or still do it, but know that YC's incentives and yours are pointing in different directions. Sometimes taking their advice is good for both of you, sometimes it is only good for them.

In an archaic form it does.

But nowadays "Frau Doktor" usually refers to a woman who is a doctor, as "Doktor" has a male grammatical gender, so it's awkward to address a woman only as "Doktor X", even though that's technically acceptable. The grammatically female word "Doktorin" has not caught on, even though it's also correct.

That statistic sounds highly suspect: if I inherited $5M 30 years ago and am now wort $50M, do I count as "not having inherited my wealth"?

It's clear that being anxious had survival value at some point of our evolutionary history. This is not necessarily the case anymore. In fact, I predict that the drawbacks of anxiety will put negative selective pressure on it, completely eliminating it from our genepool in a mere 300'000 years or thereabouts, if we're still around so long, of course ;)
