Comments by "Michael Stover" (@michaelrstover) on "DON'T Comment Your Code" video.
I am thankful the jdk includes quite detailed comments that explains what classes are and how they are used, and what the methods are for. Too many third-party libraries are full of just empty javadocs, and visiting their API documentation is frustratingly useless. Interfaces need comments that explain why they exist and how they're used. Probably most public classes and their public methods need the same (if they aren't a method from an interface - the comment belongs on the interface in that case).
