What he found was a tiny court with few resources, a town of crippling conventionality and an immediate hostility to himself and his type
But somehow Weimar represents Liszt at his greatest.
I had to smile, in a way this is still the case. The open and immediate hostility is now more a skepticism. But there are a lot of reasons to stay in Weimar.
For the Hacker News crowd interesting is, maybe, that Weimar even has a hacker space: https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Maschinenraum https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Maschinenraum
There are even start ups in and around Weimar (Erfurt, Jena, Ilmenau) although a lot of those is more traditional entrepreneurship in the optical or medical area, rather than software. But don't forget Intershop started in Jena and Prof Karlheinz Brandenburg, the inventor of mp3, is at the Technical University Ilmenau.
