The fact that we don't know the laws of physics governing some phenomenon is not a strong sign that probing that phenomenon is going to crash the universe. Quantum computing might help answering natural science’s most precise questions like, the mystery of how gravity works with quantum mechanics.

Summary

The imperfection of humans enforcing the abstraction boundaries of computers becomes evident when there is a memory allocation error. If an exploit of reality is discovered, we wouldn't need to philosophize about it as it would seem like a world with miracles.

There is a joke in the quantum computing world which suggests that integrating general relativity and quantum mechanics would cause the universe to crash, but this may not be the case as the universe has survived for 14 billion years.

Quantum mechanics
Summary

There is a joke in the quantum computing world which suggests that integrating general relativity and quantum mechanics would cause the universe to crash, but this may not be the case as the universe has survived for 14 billion years. However, there has been recent development in the theory of everything by Eric Weinstein and Steven Wolfram.
