Does homebrew still do that insane thing when you want to upgrade a single package it tell you "hold my beer" and starts installing postgres and some obscure python version?

Are you referring how it does a `brew upgrade` when doing a `brew install`? It should tell you how to disable that whenever it happens:

> Adjust how often this is run with `$HOMEBREW_AUTO_UPDATE_SECS` or disable with

> `$HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1`. Hide these hints with `$HOMEBREW_NO_ENV_HINTS=1` (see `man brew`).

I don't think any software has ever wasted as much of my time as Brew. I can't think of a single positive experience I have had with it. I now absolutely refuse to use it for any reason.
