While reading this, the anthropic principle came to my mind as a kind of subset of the ideas described in the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle


The region south east of the marker looks like someone imported test data.. street 1, street 2, district, quickly mart, .....


"The mall of district", "eiffel tower", "statue of liberty".

Either they have something akin to Las Vegas in Pakistan, either there is someting very weird with this data.


Data are correct, there is a replica of Eiffel tower in that area: http://goo.gl/xzWAqE http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahria_Town


https://www.google.com/search?q=bahria+town+statue+of+libert... - statue of liberty looks real too. Weird!


Check the satellite view and the real life pictures, seems real to me. WTF :D


To me this looks like one crowd sourced editor (the one drawing the Android) getting frustrated with another (the one drawing a bunch of complete nonsense) and doing something outlandish to bring attention to the area.


Looks more like it is large new building project and the streets haven't been named yet.


Aren't there a lot of "1st Street", "2nd Street" etc in USA?


Yeah, thank you! :)


Yes, we did not yet manage to change the language. Sorry for that, we're working on it!

Thanks for the hint!

EDIT: Now the newsletter registration is in English


Thanks! Structr is actually much more than a CMS; it has evolved into a Rapid Application Development Platform with a visual schema editor and an integrated JSON/REST server, so it can even be used for database-as-a-service projects etc.


To be fair: we added the button just now.. :)


ok ;)


On the CMS side, the page rendering process is a graph traversal and thus very fast (just a couple of milliseconds), and Structr doesn't need any caching of intermediate results during page assembly, so it can render protected/private pages as fast as public ones.

And you can create mobile backends and web apps in minutes, using the schema editor to define a custom data model.


Will do, thanks!


Of course it is open source (GPLv3 / AGPL), see https://github.com/structr/structr
