History

A school dedicated to agriculture and forestry was opened on the estate of Pyotr Stolypin in 1919. In 1922 the first plant breeding station in Lithuania was established here by Dionizas Rudzinskas. In 1923 a field trial station was also set up. An agriculture academy operated here from 1924 to 1945. In 1944 the academy's main hall was exploded by the German forces and as a result in 1946 the academy was moved to Kaunas. In 1956 the Lithuanian agriculture institute was moved here from Vilnius and in 2010 it was renamed to The Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry.


gollark: Thus, help?
gollark: Alternatively, I can just make the adding-to-nickname-mapping bit happen at exactly the same time as the checking-if-nickname-exists bit but that would be really annoying.
gollark: Another would be very aggressive locking or something.
gollark: One possible way to fix this would be to have a central "broker" task which receives all state-updating commands ever and maintains stateful state, but this would be annoying too unless I can give everything else read access to it, and actually getting responses back would probably be irritating.
gollark: i.e. two people try and register with the same nick at exactly the same time, and then it has two people with the same nick because each time it checks it hasn't been written yet, and then everything breaks horribly.
