According to the SnowPro Advanced: Architect documents and learning resources, column masking policies are applied at query time based on the privileges of the user who runs the query. Therefore, if a user has the privilege to see unmasked data in a column, they will see the original data when they query that column. If they load this column data into another column that does not have a masking policy, the unmasked data will be loaded in the new column, and any user who can query the new column will see the unmasked data as well. The masking policy does not affect the underlying data in the column, only the query results.

In Snowflake's parameter hierarchy, virtual warehouse parameters take precedence over user parameters. This hierarchy is designed to ensure that settings at the virtual warehouse level, which typically reflect the requirements of a specific workload or set of queries, override the preferences set at the individual user level. This helps maintain consistent performance and resource utilization as specified by the administrators managing the virtual warehouses.

 According to the Snowflake documentation, materialized views have some limitations on the query specification that defines them. One of these limitations is that they cannot include nested subqueries, such as subqueries in the FROM clause or scalar subqueries in the SELECT list. Another limitation is that they cannot include ORDER BY clauses, context functions (such as CURRENT_TIME()), or outer joins. However, materialized views can support MIN and MAX aggregates, as well as other aggregate functions, such as SUM, COUNT, and AVG.
