1. The Evolution of Trust (Nicky Case)
Trust me, this is the best thing on the web this week. By far.
2. Sadiq Khan Takes On Brexit and Terror (The New Yorker)
An excellent profile of Sadiq Khan, the first Muslim mayor of a Western metropolis.
3. The Pixel Painter (Vimeo)

4. Radio Garden
Thousands of live radio streams from all over the globe, ready for you to tune in. Mesmerizing.
5. Why is Poland’s Law and Justice Party trying to rein in the judiciary? (The Washington Post)
