I've mentioned the idea from physics that the future might affect the past many, many times over the years, yet it doesn't seem to get discussed often in online popular science anymore.
Hence I was happy to see that Sabine Hossenfelder finally did a video that talked about it - included the rarely mentioned transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics by John G Cramer.
I'm pleased to see that she thinks the whole concept is worthy of consideration and further work. And going by the number of comments, it's an idea that seems to hold a lot of appeal to people who like to follow her. Is it because it might be a way of incorporating both free will (which, I know, Sabine doesn't believe in) and determinism?
Anyway, here's the video:

It’s all horse shit from start to finish. After Solvay died and Rutherford retired these 29 dunces hijacked physics at 5th Solvay.
They had grown up with moving pictures where a series of stil photos created the illusion of reality. So they tried to apply this concept to all of reality.
5th Solvay was a crime against science and we are still stuck with it.
