numb3rs6316yI'm not saying that comments are bad I'm just saying make them useful, for Buisness stuff put it in a wiki page. Nobody wants to see comments like this :

Root825386y@numb3rs This rant is a trainwreck. Your third word was "stop." There are no instances of "useful," "better," "improve," etc. in your rant; it literally tells other developers to stop commenting their code altogether. This is a bad thing. Furthermore, a wiki is absolutely not the place to document code -- any such comments are substantially less likely to get updated there, meaning this practice strongly encourages divergence between documentation and function due to the added workload required to maintain it.
So no, this is terrible advice and it should be followed by no one.
Please refer back to your third word.

Dear developers, stop putting comments in the code explaining what your code do, if your code isn't readable then you're a bad coder.
Sincerely every other that's going to read your code after
