I concur. The term obviously refers to another sort of thing entirely.

This is largely why I felt the need to share it. I've never posted to HackerNews but I didn't see this one anywhere on here and had to share.

Maybe that connotation doesn't translate into German

Maybe a German can confirm?

German is my mother tongue and I live in Germany. I can confirm that my first association with MethOps was the drug and nothing related to methods. I assume this would be true for most Germans. Perhaps with the exception of older people, let's say retired ones.

It does. It even made it into the dictionary as a loan word https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Meth

I live in Germany. It absolutely translates.

This would get a snicker out of anyone here.

Your sensibilities are not universally shared, having said that, it's a reflection of our industry, but when I look at many corporate dev/IT ( reinvented with tucked mildly skinny jeans and no tie ), I'm on the fence about this one.

About the content itself: It looks like another young gun discovered the nuts and bolts of a wheel.

Whatever, it's not my war.
