By default ssh will request an untrusted xauth cookie that expires
after 20 minutes. You can change that with ForwardX11Timeout in
ssh_config(5) or request a trusted cookie that doesn't expire
(ForwardX11Trusted=yes or ssh -Y).

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
