How to Update Brew and Upgrade all Packages on OSX

I used to run Linux Ubuntu up until a few years ago as my laptop. But I find the hardware and software on a Mac to be better desktop experience. But I miss a ton of the command line utils that come along with Linux and HomeBrew fills in that gap very well. I usually run it twice for good measure.

Update All Brew Packages

brew update;brew upgrade;brew update;brew upgrade
