Hey, Iām trying to find a recent EA Forum post about the differences between longtermist and ānear-termistā EAs. It conceptualizes these groups as having clusters of traits that donāt necessarily have to do with valuing the far future, such as ānear-termists prefer tight feedback loops and strong evidence.ā And Iām pretty sure it was published in the last 2 years. Iāve having a hard time searching for it, though. Does anyone know where it is?
Iām not sure what this post is, but the topic reminds me of the 80,000 Hours podcast episodes with Alexander Berger and Ajeya Cotra ā might be worth skimming the subheadings on those transcripts to see if you find something useful.

I found it: āWhy Nations Failā and the long-termist view of global poverty
