No, I don’t like forced 5 minute stops to my work.
Yes, I’m the type of person who only updates on my schedule when notified, or when I need something.
These little tools installed by home brew aren’t just little tools, they’re dependencies for whatever else they’re used in. The fact that I need package “X” doesn’t mean I want package Y, something entirely unrelated, updated without my consent.
It’s MY fucking computer. Let ME decide what software gets installed on it and when.
