Hi all. Feel free to laugh, but I have possible proof dating from late 1999 that retrocausality does exist.
Also see
Note the post from just over a week ago, can't just be coincidence.
Seems I predicted an event a week before it occurred, according to classical physics this is not possible unless (a) signals can travel faster than light, or (b) something else gets here before the neutrinos.
Given that gravity waves can possibly travel slightly beyond C then it is possible that this could also explain the effect of solar flares affecting radioisotopes before the light and/or radiation waves can reach here, assuming that neutrinos and gravity waves have equal and opposite effects on the half life while temporally shifted.
EDIT: Just ignore this, turns out #GRBM31 was a damp squib caused by coincidence and incomplete data.
EDIT 2: Seems that ISEE3 actually helped a lot, would be great to get that old workhorse going again even to use its detectors for terrestrial gamma ray flash detection (TGF)

Well, according to the latest physics, the time is symmetric. Future event can be a cause of past event as well as past event can be a cause of future event - all laws of physics are reversible on the basic, quantum level.
What tells the time arrows apart is entropy, which increases one way and decreases the other way.
In simpler terms, imagine that an egg hit the floor and got scrambled. Did the impact caused the scrambling, or did the pieces flying together caused the floor to bounce the resulting whole egg up?
The chances of many independent pieces suddenly forming a whole egg is much less than the chances of a whole egg forming all the pieces. So, the path of higher probability gets called a cause, and the arrow of time is established.
...and i just realized i've posted an unsolicited physics lesson when the point was to laugh on a claim about predicting the future...

If there is a deterministic link between a past and a future event, then the future event cannot be changed, so you don't have a chance of invoking backward causality.

Cognitive bias, yes have heard of that being used as an explanation for the "Pauli Effect".
In my case I have had a lot of inexplicable hardware failures, but so far all have had rational explanations such as a loose HDD disconnecting when the machine was knocked.
