This may be fine, but do note that you're inserting an extra layer that you have to trust compared to inspecting the source that you know is on your local disk.

This would be sort of funny, since many operated like this in the (not recent) past. Customers picking their own products off open shelves was an innovation at one point (and it was greeted by some people with similar disdain as our current self-checkout lines).
Purely out of curiosity, how do the store police this? (I'm not very familiar with how Instacart operates, but I thought it was just a person going to the store as a normal shopper in your stead.)
There is a workaround if you use IAPs for the upgrade rather than pre-download purchase, although you have to release the new version as its own product, not as a simple version bump of the existing app. The newer version can check whether the older version is installed and offer different purchase options.
Apple introduced app bundles a few years ago, and those can now be used, with the same caveat of putting up the new version as its own app. In this case the App Store itself can do the check for the original version and change the price of the bundle.
It's certainly not ideal, but it is possible. Pythonista and GoodNotes are two that I know of that have used each of these workarounds.
Ugh. Build dedicated lanes, then, Atlanta. A scooter-pedestrian collision isn't pleasant, but it has a far, far better outcome for the pedestrian than a car-scooter collision does for the scooter.
I speak as someone who bikes and walks, and is as annoyed as everyone else by scooters -- they still have a right to personal safety.
I agree with the other responses you've got, but to make this point explicit: each meditation session is an exercise. Any definition of "success" has to be in the long term. If you're having a rough day, sitting calmly and breathing is going to help in the moment, of course. But the ongoing practice and its spillover into awareness in daily life is the goal. And, like learning any new skill, you can't necessarily see that development day-to-day, just in retrospect over months.
Meditation as I understand it involves specifically directing your mental focus to something. Sometimes breath, sometimes a visualization, sometimes an examination of a particular thought or situation.
You can do a walking meditation, where you will likewise be focused on something: one possibility being the physical sensations of walking (arms swinging, feet hitting ground), or the experience of the surroundings (light, breeze, sounds, and so on).
The difference to just walking around, or just sitting calmly, is that you are putting some effort into maintaining that particular focus, whatever it is. You will always get distracted by something else, but when you notice, you switch back. And keep on doing that for the length of the exercise.
The ads in search results are a utterly, completely different character to the on-site garbage parent is talking about. They are simple text entries that are clearly marked.
Parent already made clear that there are other options besides raw money:
> Note: compensation is NOT just dollars.
One really simple option that I think a lot of programmers would love, and that doesn't cost any money directly, is just giving them on-the-clock time to do some hacking on whatever they want, instead of keeping their noses permanently affixed to the feature grindstone.
