If you had a machine that created a window through which you could see the future, and in the future you wrote down the winning lottery numbers and relayed that information to your present self before that lottery number was drawn.
However, in your present selfs excitement, you turn off the machine before your future self wrote the winning lottery numbers into it for your past self.
What would happen?
I don’t think you’ve thought through your question. The machine was open in both time periods. The machine was turned off after the information was given. There’s nothing more to happen.
I get what you’re trying to say, but it doesn’t really apply to the scenario you are describing.
I saw a better version of what you are attempting to present: a scientist has a button that transports an object back in time by 5 seconds. An apple is tested successfully, it appears 5 seconds before he pushes the button and when he pushes the button the original disappears. They try it with a live mouse but something goes wrong; when it appears it’s horribly disfigured and this scares the scientist who pulls away from pushing the button. The mouse has already appeared but he will not press the button. Now what happens?
The disfigured mouse must come from “somewhere”, or rather from sometime.
The logical explanation is: later he has developed his button further, for a longer time jump (and maybe for some other improvement that gave him better confidence) and then he tried it “again”.
