Assuming you're pretty sure you're going to do the YC thing either way, the right answer is: renege on the summer offer. It's at-will employment, and your will is not to work there. Apologize nicely, and tell them you hope for future opportunities at their company. Internships are just expensive recruiting anyway.

I'd never do that.

Yeah, but change out "internship" for "full-time position," and it's another story entirely.
