If you write good code, you really don't need comments to read it,
I could not disagree with that statement more. Obviously, comments like this are bad:
i++; // increment i
but that's just a ridiculous example that no professional developer would ever do. However, I feel the Linux kernel is SERIOUSLY under-commented, and the reason is because too many people have the same belief that you do.
However, I don't want to get into a religious war on commenting style.
