History

This enterprise, according to its founders, was created in January 1994 by three regulars of the Rec.Sport.Soccer (RSS) Usenet newsgroup: Lars Aarhus, Kent Hedlundh, and Karel Stokkermans. It was originally known as the "North European Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation", but the geographical reference was dropped as its membership from other regions grew.

Today the RSSSF has members and contributors from all around the world, and has spawned seven spin-off projects to more closely follow the leagues of that project's home country. The spin-off projects are dedicated to Albania, Brazil, Denmark, Norway, Poland, Romania, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Egypt.

This enterprise was for many years closely tied with the newsgroup RSS, and it still maintains an archive (last updated 15 June 2003) of what some of its contributors consider to be the best posts of RSS.

gollark: But how do you KNOW if it understands it?
gollark: I mean, right now, our AIs don't reach anywhere near human complexity. But what if Google scales up GPT-3 a few hundred times or something on their vast computing resources, and it manages to do really advanced stuff without doing anything which looks like thinking to humans?
gollark: I don't even know. Our current "AI" systems don't really seem like, well, anything comprehensible to humans?
gollark: But the monotone voices will make people not think too hard about AI rights.
gollark: Well, actually, I do that with the osmarks.tk closed timelike curves regularly and nobody complained.
