Ola Bini: Programming Language Synchronicity
https://olabini.com/blog
December 4th, 2014. Separate blog about Privacy, Anonymity and Cryptography. It’s been a long while. But I have been writing a little bit during 2014 as well.

Laquo; Plan to write big software – and you have already lost. A week at Øredev. October 21st, 2009. Should languages be multi-lingual?
