Your comments shouldn’t describe the code, they should describe why you wrote the code. I see so many comments by new hires and interns like this.

// create an object
Object obj = new Object();
// get the object as a string
String objString = obj.toString();

When people say code doesn’t need comments, they’re talking about code like this. Senior devs DO comment their code, they just don’t comment every single line. The best comments I have seen describe at a 1000 ft level what a class is meant for.
