The following minimal example doesn't compiles on macOs with pdfTeX 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.21 (TeX Live 2020) and biber 2.14.

If I remove the year fields from the bib file, it works.

Any ideas, what's wrong here? The same example works on another Mac with previous version of pdflatex and biber (TeX Live 2019)

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{lauraPhd2016.bib}
\begin{document}
I doubt that there is any useful information here~\cite{wikibook}.

All we know is limited, apart from knowing the answer we all know. Or do we? Wombat and Koala have discovered some interesting things~\cite{wombat2016}.

Some people are too nosy. What can happen to them is described by Laura Lion~\cite[9]{lion2010}.

\printbibliography \end{document}

@article{wombat2016,
    author   = {Walther Wombat and Klaus Koala},
    title    = {The true meaning of 42},
    journal  = {Journal of modern skepticism},
    year     = {2016},
    keywords = {trusted},
}
@book{lion2010,
    author       = {Laura Lion and  Gabrielle Giraffe and Carl Capybara},
    title        = {The dangers of asking the wrong question},
    publisher    = {publishing house},
    year         = {2010},
    keywords     = {trusted},
}
@online{wikibook,
    title        = {Generating Bibliographies with biblatex and biber},
    organization = {Wikibooks},
    url          = {https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Generating_Bibliographies_with_biblatex_and_biber},
    keywords     = {untrusted},
}

I ran the following commands:

pdflatex document
biber document
pdflatex document
pdflatex document

The log file (document.blg):
