Could anybody speculate about how would a civilization behave if they could use quantum mechanics in their technology?
I know I'm not being very specific. Just a speculative question.

Simple: it would behave as us, since we are already using QM in technology :smile:

As lightarrow has queried, your question is rather puzzling. The computer you used to be on this forum IS a result of quantum mechanics! Look into the physics of semiconductors, which is the material used to make transistors.

I'm also moving this out of the physics subforums, which should contain only topics with actual physics content.

Ok, I'm agree. But what about Quantum Computing?

Were you aware of such application of quantum mechanics BEFORE this?

But what about Quantum Computing?

What about it? It is still an active, research front area. Are you now changing the topic of your thread?

I am not sure if this falls under classical physics or quantum physics or somewhere else (so feel free to put it in the right section), but is there any micro state of the universe one can think of which if evolved under the current laws of nature, inevitably results in outcomes such as a table levitating? That example is just a random one I decided to choose but I'm really asking about any event that would seem like a "miracle" to the ordinary person (i.e. any event that doesn't seem to...
