.bashrc is easy and convenient, but it's not safe. Simply put, how do
you guarantee that starting a terminal, `exec $ SHELL` or simply
running `bash` doesn't interfere with a background `ssh` process? You
should instead apply such changes at the *login* level, but that
depends on how you start a login session. I use ~/.xprofile
<https://github.com/l0b0/tilde/blob/2247c76e4851eff63643b31179c0b1ca97e995fb/.xprofile>,
but that may not be appropriate for you.
