I’m running a notebook from a pipeline activity. The notebook contains a bunch of Spark SQL cells, and some of those cells are frozen.

Some frozen cells are just for manual checks, eyeballing data, or occasional setup/diagnostics that I don’t always want to run interactively.

What I’m trying to understand is:

When a Fabric notebook is run from a pipeline, does the pipeline respect frozen cells and skip them? Or does “frozen” only affect manual notebook execution in the UI?

This may be a basic question, but I haven’t found a clear answer.

The intensity of religious grief reveals that people do not actually believe in a good afterlife, or that the belief system itself is psychologically nonfunctional and poorly fitted to human nature.

Here's why:

In Abrahamic religions, people claim to believe:

• God exists
• God is good and just
• There is an afterlife
• Morally decent people receive a good outcome
• God is capable of ensuring this

If taken seriously, this implies:

> Death is not a tragedy, but a transition to a better place for good people.

However, in reality:

• Grief is intense, overwhelming, and often devastating
• It looks essentially the same in religious and non-religious contexts
• It is experienced as a catastrophic loss, not a temporary separation

Even when the deceased is considered a good person and the mourners affirm belief in eventual reunion

Now, If someone truly believed that “The deceased is in a better state, and I will see them again in a finite amount of time,” then grief should resemble a painful separation not existential rupture, but it overwhelmingly resembles the latter.

Option A:

>People do not actually believe these claims, they merely pay lip service to them.

They may even think they believe them, but at a deeper level, the level that governs emotional reality, they do not.

Option B:

If people do genuinely believe all of this, and yet it has no effect on one of the most powerful human experiences (grief), then:

>the belief system itself is a dismal failure, as it fails to meaningfully map onto the experience of even its most devoted adherents.

If such fundamental beliefs which religionists are supposed to orient their lives around cannot penetrate and significantly change experience, then the religion as a whole is a faulty product and not a viable framework for it's intended audience.

Final thought

Either:

• people don’t really believe what they say they believe

or

• the religious system they believe in, doesn’t work

I’m ITC with a bunch of kids. My wife knows where I’m at, but my kids don’t. My older boys especially my teenage son just see me as someone who maybe struggles at times, not someone who fundamentally doesn’t believe.

I’ve also been active online, writing vehemently anti God and religion.

I made a serious mistake and left my computer open. My teenage son found it and read what I wrote.

He’s shattered.

He’s a good yeshiva kid, and I feel like I completely pulled the rug out from under him. I don’t even know exactly how much he saw, but it was enough to really shake him.

Now I have no idea how to handle this. I don’t know how much to say, how honest to be, or whether explaining more will help him process this or just make things worse. Part of me feels he deserves the truth, and part of me is scared of destabilizing him even more.

I also feel awful ,like I caused him real harm.

Has anyone dealt with something like this? Either from the parent side or as the kid? How do you even begin that conversation, and what actually helps?

My wife called me at work and told and I'll be going home soon.

I’d really appreciate any advice.
