Can things like wave/particle duality and the double slit experiment have any impact on the world that exists outside the atom?

I am both awesome and not awesome at the same time.

edit: yes.

No, only on the very small scale.

Nope.
We are still guessing at the laws of physics. We know so little its astounding. We have created models that work well enough based on observable evidence.
