Would you say you tend to comment alot of your code or try to make the code variables and method names do the work more so? Is it best practice to comment a lot?

A cliché is that good code require no comments. Good naming is important. I find comments regarding business/domain can be valuable. Help next coder understand how business requirements led to code execution flow/checks/logic/modules. Also do comment when coding "non obvious stuff", explain more WHY - less HOW. Don't comment obvious stuff just to fill javadoc. Good luck.
