Computing:
- Mill Computing; though quite dubious
- D-Wave
and than there is Microsoft Research working on super interesting stuff in programming languages, computer architecture (FPGAs).
Additionally, I believe really challenging problems will alwyas be coming from creative people, companies in that area; such as Pixar, architecture, and design (keywords, just to give a start: generative {design, art, ...}).
I agree but only due to my lack of knowledge in both areas -- and I only have second knowledge by attending a talk of a former D-Wave user and "programmer". That is, and contrasting Mill Computing, D-Wave has implementations in the field.
Yes, they're obviously not Scandinavian (where the name means male genitalia, plural).
Funfact: in the northern parts of Norway, calling a policeman a "horses penis" is not illegal, as that is a somewhat common thing to call another person. Yes, this was tested in court in 2008.
Interestingly enough, the number of <5 letter words in English is of the order of 10-15 000 [1], while the number of languages is 7000. Since most languages (I guess) have more than one word for male genitals, it is technically possible for all English <5 letter words to mean precisely that.
Funny coincidence, in some Spanish speaking countries kuka refers to the female genitalia. I have never heard kuka used in Swedish though. It does mean who in Finnish.
